Progress bar to show the daily and monthly Yandex API limits The progress bar appears once 25% of the API limit is reached to prevent UI congestion After 100% of the API limit is reached a warning message is shown

@rohankatyal29 @Ceilican isn't this too much information on the first page. Shouldn't we shift this to Advanced tab?

rohankatyal29 commented 7 years ago

I don't think people who "actually" need it even end up going to the advanced tab

rohankatyal29 commented 7 years ago

The bar and warning are only displayed when certain conditions are met, they are not always there

I agree with @rohankatyal29 . This has to be in the basics option, because users might not think of looking at the advanced tab. Nevertheless, perhaps @ankit-m has a point in that this information is being over-emphasized there. The idea of showing the progress bars only after 25% is good, as it reduces the over-emphasis problem. Maybe we could still think of other aesthetic improvements. For instance, we could put the two bars side-by-side, instead of one on top of the other. But anyway, we shouldn't over-think this. The current solution is already great.

Another suggestion: the bars could be additionally shown in the statistics page too (even when they are less than 25%).
