Based on the same starting point (phone in pocket) how many steps are there actually?
UI Option:
- take out phone
- unlock phone
- leave current app
- find and open control app
- find icon to toggle action
- lock phone
- put phone back in pocket
NFC option:
- take phone out of pocket
- bump phone against NFC sticker
- find NFC sweet spot
- put phone back in pocket
- bmurphy1976 4y agoIt is absurd. Get a button instead. Button option: - press button
- sneak 4y agoButtons are $20. NFC stickers are $0.20.
- tehbeard 4y agoYour NFC option missed the "move to be within arms reach of said NFC sticker" step. For some actions colocation might make sense. But having to stand up to go rub a magic sticker on the wall or coffee table to turn on the lights seems pretty dumb compared to a few thumb flicks.
