Redesigning transaction list for nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm and I have a question for you.
Does it make sense to differentiate zaps visually from other lightning payments (that also can have a message)?
My Nostr nerd side wants it, but my UX intuition say we shouldn’t do it. In a way it's just a "backend" for a payment with a message and I feel it adds unnecessary complication to transaction lists (looks dope though) 
#nostrdesign
Looks great!
It's looking great, I mean I keep separate wallet for Zap but I think it would be a great idea to differentiate them.
I like it. Is it too complicated? I think if you are looking at transactions you want more info? Either way it looks good.
Zaps shouldn’t be visually different, they are fine in the green, color separation in this case only for inbound and outbound visual que’s. Is my ✌️ cents on it
And maybe in addition for future implementation just a small purple ostrich icon if it really would be necessary to indicate what platform the payment originated from ? Just more thoughts 💭😄
Small and subtle differentation would be beneficial. E.g. a tooltip that displays the category info on hover
no need
I personally see zaps as micro payments like Twitch Bits and stuff.
So, I would make them appear different from one another. o.o
I dont think it's necessary at this moment
No, highlited zaps looks fun, but true UX balance for the list of transactions is in two colors - for incoming and outgoing.
The purple color for zaps doesn't make sense in this case.
You could maybe add ⚡️next to the Zap, but even that's probably just adding clutter.
Id keep the same color but add some icon to it with tooltip to say zap.
I think nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq just puts the word “Zap” in the beginning of the memo field. Maybe a tiny ⚡️ icon would be nice to add somewhere. But I wouldn’t change the color from green to purple. That’s a UX faux pas.
Same color.
Ostrich icon with tooltip.
But even when there is a message attached to the zap it should say from whom the zap was and link to profile.
Plan to do the same on nostr:npub1gp4xzpmluelsakjtayc4wtzj97fhj5kakqjvsannu00xkdlf4x8s0xdqyq.
I think your intuition is right.
I would try keeping the same color/icon and adding top-right a little round badge with a "Z".
One slightly left-field suggestion...
Change the up/down icons to something that communicates the category of payment. A zap, or a podcast payment, or a purchase, etc.
You're already communicating whether it's an increase or decrease with the colour of the sats amount on the right hand side, so you don't need additional cues on the left. You could add a visual cue with a subtle background colour to that entry as well.
My (fancy online) bank does something similar.
We don’t know what payment it was for bolt11 payments so we can’t add categories there
It depends on what percentage of users of Alby wallet are nostr users, if this percentage is significant it is a good idea to add this feature.
As a user of nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, I’m all about UX. Keep it simple = keep the same color & add “ZAP” in the memo as default.
