    New Guide UX Feedback and Suggestions


    New Guide UX Feedback and Suggestions [​IMG]

    I like the new Guide a lot, an awesome job by Travis Onge and team. Love the new Rectangles with rounded corner design throughout the UI. Just a few suggestion to reduce the number of button clicks on the new Guide. I've no editing experience what so ever, so pardon the bad mockup.

    Left: New Guide UI, Right: Suggested Mockup

    • When you press Guide button you start at home as the focused button as right now.
    • But the Store and My Games and Apps (Calling it "Library" would be a lot more obvious) are availble at just one D-Pad Left or Right press.
      • Doesn't improve a lot in case of My Games and Apps, but Store reduces store button presses from 4 to just 2.
      • Also active party or last used game/app can be accessed with one less D-pad down press.
    • Since we have the Store up top, we can reduce the number of Utilities at the bottom to the 3 most usefull ones, maybe we can even make this customizable like the top tabs.
    • Again keeping it center focused, so pressing RT would bring you to Notifications and then you can press Left or Right on D-Pad to access Audio or Search.
      • Reduces the required button press for both Search and Audio from 5 and 6 respectively, to just 3.
    • An added benefit is we get enough space to squeeze in one more recent game/app

    I know a lot of thought would have gone into designing the Guide and this is in no way meant to go against that, just sharing some suggestion.

    They didn't even listen to feedback, no breadcrumb at the bottom of a page is criminal. Did they even consider UX?

    Xbox Requests are what they are calling it now so that page is just explaining what it is. You should be able to click on Xbox Requests and see what's already been posted and add your idea there.

    Smwutches,

    This has confused me more than it has helped me out.

    This topic is over what a idea XBOX request add-ons are about on the link you give me.

    - I still do not know where I can post suggestions for XBOX ideas right now.

    I also already know what a idea drive is, its to round up points the dev team is working on and everyone being on bored and not going off topic for community feedback, and viewing the highest vote count....

    None of this says where I can post at... I'm I missing a part in the wiki?
