Augmented Earth now on the App Store!

Thu Jul 6 20:53:06 EDT 2017

Here is how I have addressed the initial login issue - not going to do constant updates, fear not.

I made it so that when it starts out (in initial mode) it presents a Create User button at the top with a field right after it that says you can either create a new user with that button or login an existing user below.

If they opt to create a new user, the fields unlock and a Submit button becomes visible at the bottom.

The button and field for creating a new user are only visible, and only take up space, in the initial mode.

The Submit button is only visible in the CreatingNewUser mode.

It is not too cluttered and seems intuitive to me. My intuition is not always spot on, so I am going to test it out on my victims, er... friends and family, before I submit the update to the App Store.

Thanks again - these were valuable observations.
