Hi Jonathan,

I've tried to to login to the app from an iphone 6 ios 10.3.2

Ive restarted it a couple of time but always the same.

The Username and Password field asre white and enabled - I enter the
details but no other field is enabled.


Now some feedback.

My pet peeve (it happened on a subscription site 2 days ago so I'm still
smarting from the experience ;-)

1. I have never understood why anybody asks for the original password to
change the one you have either forgotten or never received in the email.
You are in good (bad?) company Skype does this but also ties you in nots
with nobody to talk to.

2. There are TOO many fields on the login page - there should be 2 Big
Buttons at the top Create New Account ./ Sign In.

In fact off the top of my head, download the UDEMY app to see what I think
 is very simple and clear.

You can ask for all the rest on the second page but also have a SKIP if
we/they don't want to enter the other info just yet.

3. The app seems to know it has been run for a second time because the help
screen doesnt come up - so again you can leave it logged in even if they
exit the program.

4. I would allow a user name and or an email address for logging in

5. The (H) and (S) after the password and new password  have no clue that
they are clickable the (S) on the New password is not enabled.
That bit again is not obvious without clicking. The Words <Show Password>
would have fitted with no problem - and in a different colour or as a
button.

6. Why is the select user Icon showing when there is nothing to select?
Would that show something after I put in my email or logged in in which
case it just adds to the confusion. I pressed a few times to see if
anything would load.

7. You have Screen Name and Username - Until i looked to the Bottom where
it says screen name I assumed the username was my login name (or is it?).

I was typing not my full name but a Username (1 word) - The Username (or
Email) that is used to login should be together and First unless the first
line says <Your Name>. It is not obvious if you expect a first name and
last name - I presume it doesn't matter.

8. To reiterate because this to me is the crux none of the other fields
except the signup field need to be on the front page - "Show me the Banana"
as Steve Krug says and "Don't Make me think" as Seth Godin says.

Regards Lagi
