Re: [Ubuntu-phone] [App] WhatsApp for Ubuntu Phone (alpha)

2013-03-04 Thread Mika Meskanen
I had a chat about this with Gustavo today, and based on that I think it's clear that the design team need to provide a generic and scalable user experience within "Telephony" for multiple services and accounts – be it Skype, WhatsApp, Google Talk or something else. Luckily, that's always been on t

I see a clear synergy here. We have design guidance from sabdfl to steer the phone app and messaging app towards a "voice hub" and a "text hub", respectively. This need was also independently uncovered by early phone research done by Canonical. So, to summarise: - "Telephony" app already exi

Hello, Wow, that's really impressive progress! We looked at the submissions with the design team and noticed that there was a strong emphasis on "scientific" calculations. However, the calculator app as part of the phone product is targeted for everyday, casual use. That's why we came up with a re

Hi guys, Just a gentle reminder on top of what Michael's said – all apps should follow the design guidelines ! The designs submitted to the 12 core apps project have been a great source of inspiration for design and developmen

The status is: we're busy working on it at Canonical. There's no release date yet, but it will show up on the Ubuntu website and Mark's blog, just like TV and Ubuntu for Android did. Maybe some in the news as well :) Best regards, Mika On 31 Jul 2012, at 03:47, Sandy Martin wrote: > I too

Yes, Qt/QML is proving very useful in Canonical design team! Friendly coexistence between Ubuntu and Android devices is pretty much a requirement, but in general we're looking to give the phone a distinct Ubuntu user experience and personality – and that's very tangible in the mockups so far.
