SMART PROFILER (DRAFT)
INTRODUCTION
The Smart Profiler is a pattern created as part of the Viento project. It's goal is to tune apps to the needs of individuals living in various parts of Latin America whom are often using cheap Android phones with limited data plans.
SMART PROFILER OBJECTIVES
To smartly conserve battery, network and storage to create lighter, less consuming apps.
To make apps more efficient and personalized in their behavior.
PREMISE: ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL
People have different needs. There’s no one default. The smart profiler provides a flexible system to know the individual and to tune the app foreground and background activities to their needs, rather than having a one-size fits all solution for settings.
HOW TO DETERMINE A CUSTOMIZED DEFAULT
FACTORS
Phone Quality (Low-end, Average, or High-end): Determined by screen resolution and memory)
Storage: Determine amount currently available and if there is an SD card
Network (2G, 3G, 4G, none or wifi): This info helps us learn about which type of network the user is typically using, and helps us make an assumption about the quality of their data plan.
Data Available
ASSUMED DESIRED BEHAVIORS BASED ON FACTORS
Low-end Phone = resolution between x and x, memory between x and x
If a low-end phone...
Default settings should ...
Assume that the user has a limited data plan, poor battery and minimal storage.
Offer storage, battery and data options
Average Phone = resolution between x and x, memory between x and x
If an average phone...
Default settings should ...
Check available storage before offering storage options
Offer data options
High-end Phone = resolution between x and x, memory between x and x
If a high-end phone...
Default settings should ...
Assume that data is not an issue for the user; offer the options in settings, but don't prompt them to act.
Check available storage before offering storage options
UI PATTERNS
Something about ... UI patterns are designed to be flexible. Use the touchpoint that makes the most sense in your app. Also, something about how the style should match your app (tbd).
ONBOARDING
Something about when to use this UI.
Tapping on 'Limit space used by this app' takes the user to the storage options in settings.
SNACKBAR PROMPT
When to use it. Something about the state of a user's phone changing (ex: running out of storage or data).
Tapping on 'Fix It' takes the user to their options for storage in settings.
SETTINGS
We recommend following the Android guidelines for the style of settings. We've created a set of all of the possible settings. Choose the ones that apply to your app. While all of the options to tune the app are available in settings, remember that very few users will go directly to settings. This is why is important to use one of the UI patterns above to make the user aware of their options.
So I've been a bit MIA on this, too many things hit me at once in the past few months. I've been working non-linearly on this, now I want to nail down the plan for the rest of the time.
Based on various discussions, it seems that the various offline use cases are the most interesting to focus on, like the Cuban app store. Here's my sketch of the work points so far:
smooth out swap
• harmonize user experience with Viento projects and Android Go
• automate as much of the process as possible
• work with SD cards
• index El Paquete for rapid access
offline malware tools
• many devices are out of date, don't get updates
• scan for exploits when adding to collections
• increase visibility by making F-Droid Nearby app for Google Play
conserve
• only load graphics/screenshots on wifi or sneakernet, not on metered connections
• battery conservation through Android schedule tricks
• pre-crunch/optimize all images that are added to F-Droid app repositories
