Selection Goal Alert

With picu Pro you can set a selection goal, so either the exact, minimum, maximum or inside a specific range of the number of images your clients need to select.

Until now, the goal was communicated in the email or the info panel, but there was no clear indication during the selection process. Only when the user wanted to approve the collection, did picu display an alert:

From a user perspective this could be a bit frustrating, especially if they didn’t fully read the email and just now learned about the number restriction.

So, we wanted to add an indicator, when the current selection wasn’t hitting its intended target.

We decided to go with a very minimal, unintrusive, yet visible icon.

Claudio’s sketch:

When implementing it, I added a slight animation, when the indicator is first shown:

Once the goal is reached, the alert is hidden:

We hope this will mitigate a possible source of frustration when making a selection.
