As a user I want buttons and links in the app to do exactly what they say they do so that I can take better informed actions and are not faced with surprises.
Description
Type: UI / IA
Summary: Adjust copy to reflect current behavior of the links in [+] button menu.
Expected behavior
When I want to Start a new Public chat and can choose between Join public chat and Start new chat I expect to be able to start a new public chat under Start new chat and I expect to not be able to start a new chat under Join public chat.
Actual behavior
The feature to start a public chat is actually located under Join public chat
Cause
Cause
There is no explicit indication that says [Start new chat] is not intended to start a public chat.
There is no explicit indication that says [Join public chat] includes the option to Start a public chat.
Consequence
Insecurity, potential frustration
Suggestion for improvement
Long-term: Follow-up benchmarking or cardsorting to understand where to best position and group features.
Short-term: Adjust copy to more accurately and fully describe function, i.e. Start new 1:1 chat and Join or Start Public chat.
