Design | First Iteration | Second Iteration |
|---|---|---|
Category buttons | Buttons consist of the icons of an airplane for the "Airport" category, a shopping bag for the "Shopping" category, a beach for the "Travel" category, and a question mark for the "OthersOther" category. | "Airport" and "Travel" categories are merged into "Travel" with an airplane icon because the distinction between the two is not obvious. Words are added to the icons to aid comprehension. |
"Filter" buttons in "Refine Search" panel | After a user change changes a field in the "Refine Search" panel, s/he has to press the "Filter" button next to the field in order to refine the search results according to that field. | The "Filter" buttons are removed. Search results are dynamically updated as the user manipulates the fields. |
"Date" fields | Users can enter the date by either typing in the field or clicking on the calendar widget next to it. | The calendar button is removed. When a user click clicks on the date field, a calendar appears automatically and the user picks a date from the calendar. |
"Vehicle" field in "Post a New Ride" panel | The field does not exist. | The field is added so that users can specify the type of vehicle they want to use. |
"Share" a posting button | The button is too small. | The button is made larger and more obvious. |
"Email" field in "Share" panel | Users type in an email address in the "Email" field and press the "Add" button next to it in order to add the email address to the recipient list. | The "Add" button and the recipient list is removed. Users type in multiple email addresses in the "Email" field separated by commas. |
