I'm finding myself having to guide people through UIs that have random symbols instead of an obvious word that says what it does.
It's annoying and getting worse.
You can easily use a word button to point to a side out menu with words, all language localised, that will actually make sense to a user instead of causing a tech anxiety attack!
I shouldn't have to scout and translate a UI for someone. If there's one bright side to all the AI being pushed at users is that it's at least able to communicate with actual text, and usually wants to be user-friendly instead of hostile.
My favorite was the Windows Phone interface circa 2011 or so. They had a "save" button (I forget what you actually had to save on a phone) that was the standard floppy disk icon (ironic for a phone) except it was elongated and leaning to one side. When I first saw it, I thought it was a semi trailer tipping over and couldn't imagine what it was supposed to be for.
The future begins to look more and more like idiocracy everyday.
One of the programs I use at work had an overhaul recently. I wanted to find some notes from a previous day and couldn't figure out how. I asked someone to help and they told me to click some symbol in the corner of the page. I didn't even know it was supposed to be a button, hovering over it doesn't say what it does. It looked kind of like [ iii ] which tells me absolutely nothing about its functionality.
The overhaul was supposed to make things easier.
I’m not seeing the relevance here? Where are the symbols that need translating here? Every single movie has the name written on it in plain English.
