Hey guys.
I get annoyed by the settings app on Windows 10, mostly because of:
So I decided to give the redesign a go, and found out it is easier than I though. It just so happens that all the areas with the aforementioned issues were supposed to be dialogs but for some reason the Microsoft design team missed it. So I created mock-ups to illustrate how much better the dialogs could look, while maintaining the context:
Main backup page:
Backup Main.jpg
After clicking "more options" you go to this basically undesigned page:
Backup Dialog.jpg And then there is my suggestion:
Backup Suggest.jpg
And now another example, from the Wifi settings page:
Wifi Main.jpg
Clicking "manage known networks" gets you to:
Wifi Dialog.jpg
And instead, you can have:
Wifi Suggest.jpg
What do you think? It doesn't take much at all to introduce a simple tweak into the design of the Settings app (and others, like Mail and Calendar that sorely lack in design) seeing as Fluent already includes "Light" and shadows. Let me know in the comments.
I get annoyed by the settings app on Windows 10, mostly because of:
- Too much wasted, barren space
- Lack of proper navigation in some areas that makes you lose the context of what you are doing
