Re: [aerogear-dev] Unified Push Server user management questions

Hello, I've updated the wireframes with the points raised, you can find it here: https://raw.github.com/hbons/aerogear-design/master/aerogear_unified_push...

I'll address your feedback inline.

I believe Matthias' lexicon states such multiple variants are possible per app. . I think the way you've done is fine. However, if we choose this path then, I think, we need to update the specification and ensure the REST API won't allow multiple OS-specific variants per app, otherwise, they can't be shown in the UI. I forgot a to add this usecase. This can now be done in the "Variants" tab. * Apple's Push network has prod and dev environment options, a flag would be useful. Two certificate files can now be provided: one for production and one for development. Any of the two can be used by mobile apps whether they're deployed or for debugging purposes. * The terms "Instance" and "Variant" will be unfamiliar terminologies to a new user. A help icon on the screen or just some text explaining the meanings of these terms to new comers would be helpful * Terminology suggestion: Instance -> "Active user instances" or just "User instances" I've changed this to "Mobile Instances" for now, but we can discuss this. * I found the name "Variants and Push Networks" confusing. I would suggest we use one :) Push Networks it is. * I noticed you added links to download client SDKs, which is great. I think a link to the Sender REST API spec would be useful too. I think this is something we need to fix on the aerogear.org website itself. There should be easy access from the downloads to the API as a "next step". * I found our iOS tutorial to be really helpful. It got the user up and running really quickly. This is something I struggled with Urban Airship and other services. Linking ours to the console could be a real value add to first-time users * We need to check the security aspect of showing end-user emails in the instances tab to the developers of the app. Like mentioned by Matthias, this can be anything, not just email addressses. It depends on how the developer sets the system up. * Also, if an app gets really popular then this list will likely be really long, like thousands of users. Not sure if our console could handle that. I think this feature of being able to see instances is great in "development mode" or during apps' "beta testing" though. It can be a long list and we probably will have to add pagination and filtering. The main usecase here is removing instances to stop them from receiving new push notifications. * Is the check-mark in first screen used to make an app active Vs inactive? It was to to select applications and perform actions on them. I already thought this would be confusing, so I removed them now. An app is active when it has at least one push network enabled. * I like that you show the variants summary in first screen, wondering if we could use icons there for iOS, Android & web. Yep, potentially. * I was wondering if we could consider some UX ideas for first-time user experience. I imagine a lot of users using this service would never have used Push before, so they may need some hand holding and the UI is a great way to start that. Yes, I've added some paragraphs to make things more friendlier, but there's room for improvement. We can fix this as we go. Thanks for the feedback. It's been really useful!
