On main screen there is address format selector, in the form of either Harmony or Eth logo.
This is very confusing, especially to new users or those new to crypto as such.
There are numerous cases reported in internet where people confuse addresses and send coins to wrong address from other blockchain that looks similar to their current blockchain. Thus funds become unrecoverable. So, this is an important UI\UX problem to fix.
Experienced devs or ones who follow Harmony releases closely, do know what this is all about. New users not so much. Let's take care of the newcomers having smooth experience with the project!
This current UI:
A. Says "switch to Ethereum address" in the hover popup - which is misleading, the user may think he has access to Eth blockchain on this wallet, somehow attached to H wallet.
B. Shows Eth logo, which is also misleading, can be interpreted as a possibility to use actual Eth.
Can be mitigated as follows:
In all places where there is "Ethereum address" mentioned, change to "Ethereum address FORMAT (0x...)" or "Ethereum STYLE address (0x...)". Also add (one1...) to Harmony address popups and corresponding mentions.
Change Eth logo to some other logo (as an example, see attached H logo with small Eth diamond nearby), AND/OR add textual explanation for easier understanding: "0x..." format vs. "one1..." format.
