Initial thoughts from trying it out, I do think its great so far:
- there are some unfortunate missing capabilities (no way to remove conversations)
- got into a stuck spot where I had to force-quit the app (edit: found cause; it was because the 'Share' view's X was not tappable while being on a call.)
- i'm not entirely sure how the auto-import feature will work with how I have dropbox.app already auto-importing... I did a test and I don't have duplicates, but which app is doing it now?
- on ios, this is totally going after the ios photostream, which is fine for me. I do use the photostream with people for shared albums, but this might be more open and customizable if you could remove stuff or make 'albums'. I guess i'd like a way to make standalone ways to share without having the whole conversation paradigm tagged on (which is good for a lot situations, but not all I'd be looking for)
- no raw as expected, but i thought i'd complain again
- the horizontal bar for scrolling date ranges coupled with the standard vertical grid of photos is fantastic.
- Also, what is the point of "hidden" — this one seems like a big curveball. Dropbox/Carousel is like 'your own stuff' so why would you need to hide something; I just don't understand the use case — maybe like you're browsing photos with someone else and you wouldn't want them to see some special photo, but don't want it deleted?
- Swipe down to hide I think is too high of a UI for hiding photos ... If I swipe up to share, I instinctually swipe down to not share and 'get out' of the photo view... I'm glad there's a catch for 'are you sure' but I really would prefer to have it be not that accessible. I don't have a huge need for hiding (as I don't even entirely get it as I mentioned above) so I'm not digging how big it is in the UI
