Public bug reported: >From usability tests: Contacts' view on the dialer does not have instruction for empty state, and as a result, testers struggled to know how to import the contacts.
Some testers went to the dialer, wanting to sync the contacts so that they could make a phone call. They clicked on the 'Contacts' icon, but there was no empty state instruction, apart from an empty screen with '+add a contact'. One of the tesers had to manually put the contacts in. It took him three days to finally figure out how to sync the contacts. As discussed, if the contact list is empty we should display a message in the list with a button to setup Google account, similar to how it's done in the address book app. ** Affects: address-book-app Importance: High Assignee: Renato Araujo Oliveira Filho (renatofilho) Status: New ** Affects: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: dialer-app Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: messaging-app Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: address-book-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: address-book-app (Ubuntu RTM) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: usability ww07 ** Also affects: messaging-app Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: address-book-app Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: address-book-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: address-book-app (Ubuntu RTM) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: ww07 ** Changed in: address-book-app Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: address-book-app Assignee: (unassigned) => Renato Araujo Oliveira Filho (renatofilho) ** Tags added: usability -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1417341 Title: Empty contact list should provide way to sync contacts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/address-book-app/+bug/1417341/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
