Doing some early user testing and finding that people don't realize that the "share happy" is the button to tap to share more moments. Any thoughts on how to make it more tappable without spelling it out?
The blue ribbon behind it makes it look like a banner to me; an announcement, not a call to action. Removing the blue ribbon and just using a darker color for the text might do the trick.
I think having a raised outer circle instead of a recessed one could also help.
You could even use some of the same styles you used for the blue camera button on your previous shot.
I'll go out on a limb and say that most web/touch users don't necessarily view perfect circle shapes as buttons. I'd be curious to see the results of some kind of A/B test where you use the existing button and a more traditional border-radius rectangle.
@Marcel Moreau A/B testing would be great, we use the same circular button within the tabbar, definitely not the norm, was thinking of including the standard rounded rectangle button in addition or animating this circle in some way. Thanks for the feedback!
