Private Mode "Learn More" new copy/design #280
Comments
@anthonypkeane @jhreis has a decision been made as to the copy and how it will be displayed please? Please also see #220 |
@tomlowenthal can we sync on this and finalize the copy needed here. Once this is final, @jamesmudgett you and I can finalize the design. |
Top screen is:
Below the break:

That below section is too much text on small screens. Having just the top section text is sufficient in my opinion. cc: @kjozwiak @LaurenWags |
+1 to #280 (comment) by @srirambv I think there was discussion before about having the 'below the break text' above in the 'Learn more about private tabs.' link - is that still an option? that seems like it would work best for the smaller screens. |
Agree with @srirambv & @LaurenWags, I don't think displaying a huge wall of text to users when they tap on "Learn more" is the best approach. Even though it's not displayed as the default and requires user interaction, it's white text, on a dark/black background that tries to explain something technical. I don't think explaining Now that @Brave-Matt & @tomlowenthal are working on a knowledge base, I think a better approach would be:

Paragraph text should be left-aligned, not centered. |
Seems like there's still some discussion around the final decision. Re-adding the blocked label |
tl;dr: Long text in the product is good actually. As we learned from our intern who researched it this summer, people who click "learn more" want more information. Often people look for longer text even when we don't offer a "learn more" affordance — they just don't find it. Longer text explaining things is specifically what they just requested with their click. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Requiring a network interaction to view an outside page in order to understand what a privacy feature does is a dark pattern. The text explaining this confusing feature which someone has literally just asked to understand should be available immediately, and in-context. They should need to wait for a load, or have a context switch, or potentially reveal that they just tried to use a privacy feature. Honestly, I'm tired of having to re-litigate this over and over again. |
@tomlowenthal So is the final design basically #280 (comment) but with left-aligned text? |
Yep |
OK awesome @jamesmudgett You good with that? Do you want to update your design to show left-aligned text? |
@jamesmudgett really doesn't need to left alight the text here in the image. It is James's design, but left aligned @kylehickinson - hopefully that is clear. |
Yeah its definitely clear, and he doesn't have to update it. Just wanted to make sure he's fine with the change itself. |
It seems weird to left align content when everything else is centered. What's the concern with center alignment? |
Center-aligned paragraphs are difficult to read, especially for folks who have difficulty visually-parsing lines to begin with. |

The no-tabs private mode state that displays the usual information about private mode currently has a "Learn more about private tabs." button to have parity with 1.6.
This will be need to be replaced by longer copy explaining more details around private mode, or by instead showing that longer copy some different way upon clicking the "Learn more" button.
