Messaging system with discard user interface
A computer-implemented method of displaying a user interface comprises: displaying a preview of a message on a screen; receiving a discard motion; displaying a discard instruction with varying opacity during the receiving, the opacity increasing in proportion to a range of the discard motion; reaching a minimum motion threshold; and discarding the message.
1. A computer-implemented method of displaying a user interface, comprising:
causing display of a message on a screen;
receiving a discard motion;
while receiving the discard motion, causing display of a discard instruction comprising an opacity increasing in proportion to a range of the discard motion up to a first opacity until reaching a motion threshold;
causing display of the discard instruction at a second opacity greater than the first opacity once the motion threshold is reached; and
discarding the message.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the discard motion is a swiping action.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising providing haptic feedback once the motion threshold is reached.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first opacity is 50% and the second opacity is 100%.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying a discard warning if the message includes creative tools, the creative tools including special effects.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising sliding a displayed preview along the screen in a direction of and in logarithmic proportion to the discard motion.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein the direction is downwards and the discard motion is a finger moving downward on a screen.
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the message is an ephemeral message having a time-limited duration.
9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the displayed message includes video.
10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors of a client device, cause the client device to perform operations comprising:
causing display of a message on a screen;
receiving a discard motion;
while receiving the discard motion, causing display of a discard instruction comprising an opacity increasing in proportion to a range of the discard motion up to a first opacity until reaching a motion threshold;
causing display of the discard instruction at a second opacity greater than the first opacity once the motion threshold is reached; and
discarding the message.
11. A client device, comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more computer-readable mediums storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the client device to perform operations comprising:
causing display of a message on a screen;
receiving a discard motion;
while receiving the discard motion, causing display of a discard instruction comprising an opacity increasing in proportion to a range of the discard motion up to a first opacity until reaching a motion threshold;
causing display of the discard instruction at a second opacity greater than the first opacity once the motion threshold is reached; and
discarding the message.
12. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the discard motion is a swiping action.
13. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise providing haptic feedback once the motion threshold is reached.
14. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the first opacity is 50% and the second opacity is 100%.
15. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise displaying a discard warning if the message includes creative tools, the creative tools including special effects.
16. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise sliding a displayed preview along the screen in a direction of and in logarithmic proportion to the discard motion.
17. The client device of claim 16 , wherein the direction is downwards and the discard motion is a finger moving downward on a screen.
18. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the message is an ephemeral message having a time-limited duration.
19. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the displayed message includes video.
20. The client device of claim 11 , wherein the motion threshold is one third of a height of the screen.
