| Jun 12, 2018 at 10:14 | comment | added | Neph | @Anders No, #1 is a normal Android app used for downloading new files and managing existing ones and #2 is a VR one that is purely used for displaying the objects and what comes with that (you can't change anything about the actual files with it). | |
| Jun 12, 2018 at 10:07 | comment | added | Anders | Sorry I mixed it up, I meant in App #2, are there other options there? | |
| Jun 12, 2018 at 9:58 | comment | added | Neph | @Anders So open the app and show a single button for the object you picked? Yes, apart from "open app #2" there are other options, e.g. "delete", which permanently deletes the selected file from the phone's storage after showing an "are you sure you want to delete ...." dialog. For everything else there's a Toast (small message at the bottom at the screen that vanishes on its own after a couple of seconds) at most and only once something has finished successfully. | |
| Jun 12, 2018 at 9:47 | comment | added | Anders | Then it is a toss up, and I would probably go with just opening the app. But UX wise it should open up the file directly. Unless there are other options that just Open in App1 when the file is selected. | |
| Jun 12, 2018 at 9:23 | comment | added | Neph | @Anders Sorry, i mixed it up with an older version, the button in the current version now says "open app #2" (to save some space) but it won't do anything unless there's a file selected. Does this make a difference? | |

| Jun 12, 2018 at 8:24 | comment | added | Anders | I would say that your app should do as the button says. It will be annoying for the user to have the extra step when they already said they wanted to open the file. Otherwise you should change the wording on the button, so it reflects what happens when you click it. | |
