Design Help Screen

Help Screen

The Help screen is the in-app README. It gives a new user enough to work without leaving the app, and it points to this wiki for the rest. The help (?) icon on the main screen opens it. So does the "How to get started" button that appears while no keys are saved.

The text lives in one file, app/src/main/assets/help.txt. Every heading in that file becomes a card. Keeping the help in one plain text file makes it easy to correct without touching code.

Box	What it holds	Why
Back arrow and title	Returns to the main screen	Standard navigation. Back works the same way.
Logo	The OTStudio artwork	Ties the help to the brand the user just saw on the splash screen
Welcome	What OT Studio does and how keys are handled	Sets expectations about bring-your-own-key billing before anything else
Quick start	Five numbered steps from keys to the first save	The shortest path to a first result
Get your keys	How to create OpenRouter and Replicate keys, with buttons that open each provider's key page	The most common first question, answered with direct links
What it costs	Typical costs for chat, ten matching 2K photos, and one minute of video	Paid requests should never surprise anyone. The figures carry their date.
What OT Studio does not do	Limits, including that clips need a separate editor for joining and music	Honest limits save the user time looking for features that do not exist
