SoundCloud FOR APP
ByReem alsharefElaf alghamdi
SoundCloud for App Introduction
SoundCloud is a global online audio distribution platform, that enables its users to upload, record, promote, and share their originally-created , So i will evaluate SoundCloud using the
10 heuristic evaluations suggested by Jacob Nielsen in 1993 .
SoundCloud for App
SoundCloud for App Visibility of system status (I know what’s going on)
The audio length in the background is a wave-form
showing you in real time what the sound looks like
Reaction when you publish a track on Twitter or path or other
When you add track to playlist
SoundCloud for App Match between system and the real world
(I know what you’re talking about)
-The apps speaks the users language.
Buttons be like real world
categories of audio are very familiar to the real-world
SoundCloud for App User control and freedom (Oop, let me outta here)
The ( ) function on the up left corner
make user back to profile page
If you accidently added playlist you can use the
delete to remove it.
Click on heart to undo like this track
SoundCloud for App Consistency and standards ( Seems familiar, makes sense)
There is no deferent between soundcloud and Media cloud in the way of designing (e.g. the Search area is shown in the upper. in other hand, the serach area in Media cloud is shown in upper)
SoundCloud for App
SoundCloud for App Error prevention( Glad I didn’t do that!)
you able to find who you looking for even though misspelled it.
This is great error prevention
SoundCloud for App Recognition rather than recall
(I know what I need to do here)
when i searched for Rawaq, simply i just wrote the first two characters and
he recognize that i am looking for Rawaq.
SoundCloud for App Flexibility and efficiency of use
(Allow me to do more or less)
• In Red:Home Button.• in Blue: Search Button.• In green: Profile Button.• In Purple: current playing track.
SoundCloud for App Aesthetic and minimalist design
(looks good, works beautifully)
Every thing in this picture is relevant to the software.
SoundCloud for App Help users recognize, diagnose, and recover from errors
(I know what went wrong , I can fix it)
If user enter an email that exist in soundcloud
SoundCloud for App Help and documentation
(Okay, I need help)
there is not specific button for help. but there is Link.
