User Testing for Faviii

Browser Based:


Browser based should offer more interactivity. Being able to share bookmarks and icons, even display them externally on other websites or blogs.
Creating an API where people could integrate and develop for this concept would make it interesting for developers.

FeedBack


01. ICONS
Manually choosing icons!
Getting icons for sites with longer urls ex. www.myspace.com/lessfame
Implementing friendly Url's would give an easy way for people to share icons.
Making rollover effects on browser based icons.

2. iPhone USE
With using the iPhone speed is crucial. Making the applications a native web app would boost use. Also making it available for the iPhone App Store would boost the market. Also, less steps. Making the application easy and fast to use, will make people not exit the application.

3. CHANGES from FEEDBACK

One major thing I noticed, was how to make the site usable. So I decreased the amount of steps by combining the sections of the site. You can login and register on the same page. You can add urls and view them on the same page.
(BROWSER)

One thing I noticed for mobile use, was the UI. So I went through apples documentation and formatted the application for iPhone use. Made the Buttons and text big. Make the colors sharp and contrasting.
(IPHONE)
