editor colour, and short tap audio on send button #29

Words from copy received SMS in the edit works great - but presentation is very confusing. Visual separation of the editing (maybe different color) would be good. Send icon is hard to see - good would be to read out "send" when you tap short/lightly on the icon.

Different background color you mean? I added the thin line to make it clear, since before it was very confusing, but a background color could help. I can also add a "Send" text underneath the button so it is more clear.

Tap short/lightly will cause the message to be sent, I could do it on long press though (like we had on RealFarm) but we have to be careful to keep consistency in the application.

I was also thinking to modify the bottom part to include a reset button and a type button, either placing two buttons on each side, or adding a bar with all of them (play, send, reset, type). Have you though about this?

so far long click is action (e.g. to copy from existing SMS to editor and from icon to editor). So long-tap would work. yes, to the two buttons for text and the reset (delete all text in editor)
