Over the last days I've worked on a real onbarding for my iOS App WorkTimes β which helps you to track your hours worked.
Currently I don't have any guided onboarding, so the user has to figure it out himself. As the topic "hours tracker" can become really complicated, WorkTimes has a lot of settings to customise.
With the onboarding in place, I hope to lower the barrier for new users so they become familiar using the app quicker.
Please let me know what you think β especially the wording. Is there anything unclear or too complicated?
Thanks. π
As a layperson, I don't know the exact meanings of some of the terminology you use. Does your user have some specialized domain knowledge in time tracking?
No, my customers are usually employed people.
What terminology do you don't know?
A few comments:
Hope that helps.
Thank you. Absolutely!
1, I usually see time as hours/minutes, so the decimal representation is confusing to me. Maybe provide a sentence saying why the user would choose one or the other
2, Maybe it's a US bias but we tend to think of weekly hours
3, What does it mean for overtime to be negative? Isn't it postivie by definition?
Maybe it's a German or Europe thing. In the context of working hours here you either have durations being tracked as time (h:mm) or decimal ("industry minutes"), where 1h equals 100 industry minutes. So 3:30 equals 3,5h.
I'll check that and maybe change it to weekly hours. Thanks for that.
Yeah, overtime is positive per definition. When you work less than your weekly hours, you have "negative time". In Germany we call that "Minusstunden" ("negative hours"). Is there an equivalent in the US for that?
I think US users( and possibly other markets)might have some trouble with the way it is represented.
Hey, first thank you for your feedback. It really helps.
Is there an official or colloquial term for, when you've worked less than your weekly hours? What I found was undertime. π§
I am not aware of any. I wonder if it is even tracked.
