Navigation (Nav)
This section shows primary navigation components designed for quick access to different app sections. Simple icon-based links and clear labels improve usability in high-paced environments.
Recommendation: Emphasize the importance of minimalism in navigation to support users in efficiently moving between tasks.
Gauge Indicators
Gauges are used for real-time feedback on task status, such as scanning or confirming actions. Different colors (green, orange, yellow) visually communicate status updates like “Success,” “Incorrect,” and “Review.”
Enhancement: Include tooltips or hover information for accessibility, explaining the gauge status for users who may have color vision deficiencies.
Tabs and Icons
Tabs organize content across screens, allowing users to switch between sections seamlessly. Placeholder icons suggest additional visual aids to support navigation.
Recommendation: Ensure tabs and icons have high contrast to remain visible under various lighting conditions in a warehouse setting.
Rows and Headline
Rows display grouped information, such as item details, with highlighted indicators (green, orange) for task completion or error handling. A clear headline provides context, e.g., date and task status.
Update: Label colors indicate status, so maintaining consistent colors for statuses across screens is key.
Buttons
The design includes primary action buttons (“Submit,” “Create New Tub”) with a mix of solid and outline styles. These support prominent call-to-action states for crucial steps.
Recommendation: Use solid buttons for primary actions and outlines for secondary ones, ensuring users can quickly distinguish main actions.
Input Fields
Input fields are displayed with a border and color-coded states for standard, error, and focused modes. The layout emphasizes clarity and accessibility.
Enhancement: Highlight error states with an explanation message to guide users in correcting entries.
Delete Pop-Over
The delete pop-over includes a confirmation message with “Cancel” and “Continue” buttons, reducing the chance of accidental deletions.
Recommendation: Consider adding a warning icon to draw more attention to the action and its potential consequences.
Custom Keyboard
The custom keyboard provides numeric input for warehouse settings, optimized for entering quantities or IDs without switching keyboards.
Update: Ensure the keyboard’s “Next” button navigates logically through input fields to streamline data entry.
Scrolling Feature with Shadow
When users scroll through items, a shadow effect activates, indicating that additional content is available. This visual cue helps users understand their position within a list.
Recommendation: Make the shadow subtle enough not to distract but noticeable enough to serve as an indicator.
