Add more detailed Android player tools instructions

Open ineffyble opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

What I put in Reddit was this:

We should probably add explicit instructions, although it can vary per browser etc (more variance on Android).

The method that works for me is:

  • Tap the player data link and login
  • Go back to DataCore
  • Tap and hold on the player data link, choose "Download link"
  • This results in a file named "player.json" being added to my files/downloads
  • I then click "Upload data file" and select "player.json"

I like the wording. Very direct.

How about this? Can we split the form up into 2 tabs, Import and Upload? When a mobile device is detected, we automatically show the upload tab, otherwise the import (paste) tab is the default. Then each tab can show more appropriate instructions and we probably don't have to use a modal for iOS, we can just show it in the tab.

Edited: I got my tabs reversed. Fixed now.

Maybe? We don't want it too cluttered, and I feel like multiple sets of instructions would do that. We could have a UI element to change which instructions you saw though (e.g. radio buttons or similar).

How about something like this? I assume we can detect if a user is on Android or iOS and then switch to the correct tab automatically.
