Impossible to choose the desired sum of like #142

That is optionally changing amount per like (see Chrome extension), not only the default in settings.

We still don't have the UX on how to solve this on mobile. For the first MVP let's go with the option of changing the default like amount in the settings

Smartlike users can click on like icon and it would appreciate the content for the amount that is set in their settings. By default, it is 1 cent.

When a user clicks on the like icon we are adding some simple transition animation from line to fill to indicate a new state.

But this is not enough. We need to do something more.

We can:

  1. Animate the amount to have +N. This can result in more confusion than help because as we know, liking is just a pledge that needs to be settled to be valid.
  2. Show some kind of toast notification that like action is successfully saved, and optionally, after some time, include a call to action to settle screen.
  3. Show the amount of unsettled likes the user has made beneath his username for example and animate the increase on every like. This way we have an indicator that likes are accumulating something. The amount can also be a call to action to settle screen.

If anybody has more ideas that can be easily implemented and can provide better UX for the user for public MVP, do tell.

When we have a decision on this, we can have a go and add an option to improve the like amount:

  1. Just enable multiple clicks on the like button that is going to add even more appreciation. Easy to implement and simple to use. But there is no unliking then. Medium style for example.
  2. Have a hover/long click action that shows a slider/input field to select or enter a custom amount. It can be fun but requires work on all platforms. Something like Facebook reactions where you click and can slide your finger/cursor impatiently after. Preview next (it can be similar to browser extension to have a unified experience).
