Differentiate between "private" and "private and verified" conversation

[azadi]

Are we differentiating between private and private and verified conversations? Once a user has verified a contact, can we indicate that in the UI without the user having to click the padlock icon to check it?

[arlolra]

We do? The padlock is solid green when it's been verified and an outline of orange we it hasn't. Also, the system notification will clearly says ", but not verfied, " in any messaging.

Ah yes, sorry I missed the padlock.

[arlolra]

Hmm, that makes me think it isn't apparent enough :(

Any ideas on how to improve it?

FWIW Just changing the color isn't very accessible, probably best if the icon changed somehow too...

[arlolra]

It changes from an orange outline to solid green. There's also a system message that occurs during that transition.

But yes, this sounds like it may need some improving.

I second changing the icon but I am not sure what we can use to show to a verified contact on top of a padlock. Something like a user icon with a green check mark?

[arlolra]

Here are the three we have so far, so we know what we're talking about:

[azadi]

Perhaps we can use this:

Open padlock (red): Not private (therefore, not verified)
Green padlock: Private but unverified
Green padlock with a tick?: Private and verified

I think we should also match them up with appropriate tooltips. #34.
