01ConceptA reading app where users can leave comments in a book asynchronously
Some friends and I recently started a book club and in just a week I realized that I didn't want to wait until we met to discuss what I read so far.
That's when I remembered the video game Dark Souls. In this game players can add in-game notes for other players to read. Though the players never directly interact, players can still indirectly communicate with these notes.
02Creating “Comments”Comments were designed around three principles.
Accessible while reading.
Can include quoted text.
Can be written without quoting text.
I found my solution with a simple text button.The text button only shows when there are one or more comments on a page.The number counter displays the number of comments in the bottom sheet.
03Comments designThis image shows 2 comments on a page
The top comment shows one that is quoting text, while the bottom doesn't.
04Writing CommentsAdding comments is easy
Screen 1Tap, hold and drag to select text.
Screen 2Tap the comment button
Screen 3Write a comment
Screen 4Press send
Screen 5See your new comment!
05Reading NavigationWith comments finished, I began thinking about page navigation
Page navigation was the first major functionality addressed.
Screen 1Chapter navigation, swipe up to quickly jump chapters
Screen 2Page navigation
Screen 3Page skipping, for when you really need to get somewhere specific
06The Rest of the AppWith the main features sorted I turned my attention toward other screens
In these two designs I created the main bookclub page (where users would see members of their bookclub) and a book synopsis slide.
