As a desirable approach on the client (AnkiDroid) side, I suppose that it would be better to use AnkiWeb logo for the "AnkiWeb account" screen rather than AnkiDroid logo (only), to be less misleading.

In case that an app has a screen for connecting to Twitter/X, it is natural to use Twitter/X logo in the screen, rather than the logo of the app itself (only).

I would think the same is true for the screen for connecting to AnkiWeb.

That is, for example,

  • Simply replacing AnkiDroid logo with AnkiWeb logo

  • Displaying the two logos to visualize the independence of the app (AnkiDroid) and the external service (AnkiWeb) from each other.

(Anyway, the current logo on the screen may be a bit too big.)

I agree with @snowtimeglass , having a good UI on that screen would be helpful understanding the flow of what exactly is happening

I've labeled this as Good First Issue!

The first step would be to propose a vector icon which:

  • Fits the requirements above
    • #ankidroid-design on Discord if you need more real-time feedback
    • Bring the results of these discussions back to the issue
  • Can be modified to work in Night Mode
  • Will work Landscape + Portrait
  • Works on both the 'MyAccount' and LoginActivity screens
    • Log In + Logged In: we don't handle #
    • Do not make the image larger vertically. We can probably handle smaller
  • Have a brief think about tablets

You'll likely want to work with a placeholder for the AnkiWeb logo, then once the design seems reasonable, confirm with @dae that we're OK to use the logo in the design, and an appropriate license for it.

Thank you for the work and the draft.

Some concerns and expectation:

  • I'm not sure that using "Authorize" here is appropriate. "Connect to AnkiWeb" might be better.
    image

    • Accordingly, the checkmark icon may also need to be reconsidered.
      image
  • The design of "connecting" seems to have room for improvement (in the future). The current black dots don't look very good to me.

    • Using AnkiWeb image only is also alternative.
  • The outline rectangle (shade) of the image looks unnecessary to me.
    image

  • Spacing between images and the label and the input box looks narrow.
    image

  • The AnkiDroid image needs to be revised to more "official" one.
    imageimage

  • "AnkiWeb" text in the logged-in screen appears to be compressed vertically. It may be not desirable.

@tamojitdas you should come to the design channel on our Discord to get more instant feedback (#ankidroid-design)

And no need to ping dae, all that's needed is a final sign-off that he's ok with the AnkiWeb logo use, and an appropriate licence for us to use

Thank you, it generally looks better to me.

I too think posting it on Discord may be a good idea.
You may want to take and use high-resolution screenshots for that.

I feel it might be even better if the vertical margins around the image area were a little wider.

"Connect To": "Connect to" (sentence case style) would be desirable as it is consistent with the notation of the other labels in this app.

Thanks again.
