تمهيد

لم يعد تطبيق iOS تطبيقًا يركز على القراءة فحسب، فقد أصبح بالإمكان استعماله للقراءة والتحرير سويًا.

بدأنا في إضافة فرص للمساهمة الصغيرة، مع وصف المقال في عام 2018. Since then, we have invested in building out notifications and on-wiki communications in 2020, adding Watchlist in 2023, and the Add an Image suggested edit in 2024. As we have added these editing features, the navigation system of the app needs to grow and change to support them and future additions. Improving our navigation will allow for more app users to discover editing features, and allow experienced users quicker access to their most-used tools. This refresh incorporates findings from usability testing with multiple variants of the App's navigation: T351834.

Before embarking on this work, we completed intensive user testing with readers, newcomers, and experienced editors, in English, Arabic, German, and Chinese (Simplified).

نهدف من خلال تحديث واجهة التنقل بين القراءة والتحرير إلى:

• إضافة ميزات التحرير وتعزيزها
• زيادة وضوح الإشعارات في أرجاء التطبيق
• تمكين تتبع عدة مقالات
• السماح بوصولٍ سريعٍ إلى ميزات رئيسة وتخصيصها
• تسهيل العثور على زر التبرع
• تقليل ظهور المحتوى الأقل طلبًا (مثل الأماكن والتاريخ)

While we welcome feedback from everyone, we are especially interested in hearing from:

Arabic, Chinese, German, and English editors.

In our study, we are committed to fostering a balanced and diverse group of testers. To that end, we aim for a broad spectrum of gender and age representation, ensuring that all perspectives are well-captured and accounted for.

كيفية المتابعة

We have created T373712 as our Phabricator Epic to track this work. We invite you to collaborate with us there or on our Talk Page. We will provide periodic updates on this page as we make progress.

المراحل

In order to accomplish this large body of work, we plan to split up the change to the app into discrete phases. Each phase will improve the navigation, aligned with an annual plan goal.

المرحلة الأولى: إنشاء قائمة ملف تعريف للمستخدم (T373714)

This first set of changes introduce a new Profile Menu into the App. This menu will be in the top navigation, and will be accessible from the Explore view, and Article view. For logged-in users, this menu will include quick access to Notifications, User Talk Page, Watchlist, Donate, and Log out. These items will be removed from their existing location within Settings, and Settings will always be accessible from the Profile Menu.

We've heard requests to make the Watchlist and Notifications easier to access from the Article view, and this change will allow users to open Watchlist and Notifications from Article View. We eventually plan to have this profile menu accessible from all main views of the app, add more items into it, and make it customizable.

• 
  The profile menu will be accessible viewing an Article
• 
  The profile menu will also be accessible from the Explore tab (Where Settings was previously)
• 
  View of the Profile menu for logged-in users
• 
  View of the Profile menu for logged-out users

Increased accessibility for the "Donate" button

This change will also make the donate button easier to access from article view, aligning with Annual Plan objective around Reader and Donor Experiences. Our initial hypothesis (3.2.3) is If we make the “Donate” button in the iOS App more prominent by making it one click or less away from the main navigation screen, we will learn if discoverability was a barrier to non banner donations.

Previously, to navigate from an article to "donate", it took 3-4 clicks. This navigation change will reduce the clicks from article view to donate to only 2 clicks (Profile > Donate).
