Screen reminders for Android 5 system Lollipop

Google has been ambitious to write new rules for the interactive experience in material design, which is a new Google idea between the fitting and the flat. The first embodiment of this new design is the latest version of the Android system: Lollipop. The lock-screen reminder for the new system is great, you can erase the reminders with a scratch, or stretch them open. For example, to remind you of a new email, you can read the full text without having to jump to your inbox. In addition, Lollipop can allow only the reminders of specific programs to be run, while shielding others. In this way, the message will not be interfered with by other messages, and no need to enter the set of special settings.

In short, Google wants you to simply complete the operation on the desktop without drilling into the depths of the system.

Smart touch screen designed for automobiles

When the driver in the car radio or air-conditioning, the sight had to leave the road to move to the touch screen. This is obviously a dangerous thing, but carmakers are still doing it. If there is a touch screen that allows people to operate without looking, it will solve the problem well.

Designer Matthaeus Krenn made such a design. He used gestures to replace the small button, such as two fingers to adjust the volume, four fingers to adjust the temperature. Of course, people need a learning process, but the point is that you will eventually learn-all the buttons based touchscreen UI in the market will always need you to take a peek.

As we can see in the picture above, the volume is adjusted with two fingers, and the two-finger circle can switch the song.

The physical interface of Flickr and Google Street View

Tommy Dykes is a PhD student at Northumbria University and has developed two special interfaces for people with dementia. The first is a handsome physical map to help them see Google Street View more intuitively. Another project is a puzzle tile that assists Flickr slides to play.

Two ideas are great, based on two powerful data repositories, provide attractive, tactile entry points. More importantly, these designs encourage people to integrate more flexibly into the community. Dykes that the smaller the device and the interaction, the more inclined to trap us in our own little world. And the design he made was the hope that all the people in the House could play together. And they are like a game with no rules but countless possibilities, and people can explore it with all their might. He also hopes these features will make it easier for older people to use.

Inbox makes email more normal.

Google launched the personal mail management software inbox is another material design masterpiece. It follows a basic truth: All messages are not equal. Some important messages can be set up or reminders, some of the confirmation information needs to be saved, the rest of the general message can be regularly cleaned. The app is clear that people are more likely to take their inbox as a to-do list, providing a simple management and tagging tool for users. It's still email, just ... It's not that bad.

Instant hot spots, continuity unsung heroes

The main feature of Apple's new system Yosemite is a property called continuity. The main idea is that you can transfer any process you're working on your Mac to your iphone or any other Apple device. This is a very cool idea, but the reality is that you have to use all of Apple's software. Want to use Chorme? That would be embarrassing.

But one small thing is very useful, that is instant hotspot. Before, if you want to use a mobile phone to sync delete the email on your computer, you must enter the phone settings, and then enter the password, click a bunch of things. In the new system, you can just put your phone in your pocket and start the hotspot with your Mac. It's a very specific thing, maybe four times a year. But in our multi-device life, it's a good example of how businesses are concerned about device control.

A key for your choice.

Design is always to the convenience of convergence, because people like simple and efficient things. But if we are endlessly pursuing convenience and ease, it is estimated that our offspring will be dragged around the BuzzFeed's space station in the same way as human beings in the future of robot-Wally.

This key hook is the German Fuckow Art University PhD Matthias Laschke Design, in Germany, the home wall will usually have two hooks, a car keys, a hanging bicycle keys. If you catch the car keys, the bike keys fall to the ground--a subtle but willful way of saying, dude, are you sure you want to drive?

This design is part of the "Happy Problem Makers" series. Laschke hopes to help people make more choices that fit their healthy lifestyle. "We think people will reconsider and even change their minds when they pick up their keys," he said. When you have two keys in your hand, you have to make a choice, by breaking the routine, we give people a chance to choose again. It's like the time to dial back. ”

The rise of TouchID

When TouchID just launched, the sharp people will see its future is not just unlock the phone. Sure enough, Apple Pay this year, and it opens its fingerprint-recognition portal to a number of third-party applications, such as Aamazon and Dropbox. This is obviously a lot easier than typing in a password on a mobile keyboard, and in the future, both convenience and security will increase dramatically in licensing and authentication.

Texting from the desktop

Through the computer to the contact person in the Address Book imessage message, is Apple on a few version of OS X on the function, but the new system Yosemite took the final step, so that people can send mobile phone messages on the desktop, not only imessages. (So the micro-letter desktop version is also a human gospel na feel a long time did not send text messages? =)

Google Maps "Shake feedback" function of the death

This one is for fun ... Google Maps launched a new feedback function last year, shaking it. But there is a user spit slot people just grabbed the phone on the road, really did not want to say the meaning of Google you too romantic. Fortunately, the new version of the iOS version of the application has been cut off this feature.
