i am making the contacts screen a bit different. with this redesign, it allows you to do all tasks (crud) from one screen and one tap:
http://bitshares-munich.de/docs/BitShares-Wallet-v1-beta1-contactsscreen-NEW.pdf
 
tapping on an avatar or anywhere in the middle column it will take you right to the existing send screen with the contact's info pre-filled for you.
 
the edit and delete buttons i added to the main contacts screen too so that you no longer have to go to a sub-screen.
 
the new contact button stays where it is up in the top right corner.
 
IMO, the less taps you have to go thru, the better.
colors help the eyes, lower the learning curve and really help the tech support people who want to walk someone thru it too.
 
midnight, goin to bed now..
 
edit: the yellow and red buttons are a good idea, but they're overbearing. Gonna simplify them a bit...

Known issues mainly, thanx abit!
When my mobile guy gets back on the 11th, these and a lot more are on the todo list

* click on the "please make backup to continue" link -> a "no translation for" message on the button
* click on the button -> a "download" button and a "missing translation" button
* main page -> 2 "missing translation" message on the list below
* the "5KPX..." displayed near the bar-code is the private key of the account or what, why does it change every time reloading the page?
* lots of "missing translation" in the "send" page.

//Edit: language was set to Chinese by default on my phone. It looks better after set language to English.
//Edit2: if language set to Chinese, it shows only spaces at where should be some words. But the date/time displayed in Chinese is fine.

Great work 
Downloading.
A post in General Discussion board will be more attractive.

Perhaps consider adding to f-droid when you get out of alpha and the wallet is usable. For us enthusiasts it's no problem to install the APK directly (would be nice if you can offer a GPG signature of the apk, or failing at, at least SHA256 checksums), but for people who don't know bitshares, they could become aware of it by seeing the app appearing in the "What's new" section of the f-droid app.

See, the people who use f-droid are also probably interested in all this crypto stuff..


Regarding the merchants having nothing to hide, that's only half the equation .. I don't want the whole internet to know I bought coffee in City_A today and one week later in City_B, for instance.

Now, if you say this shouldn't be a priority *right now* then we're in full agreement, it's more important to have a working wallet and a working POS system and people transacting with it; what I'm saying is, unless you're a proponent of a fully transparent society where mass surveillance is facilitated, expected and encouraged, then at some level there is an obligation to develop this app in a direction that helps people being free from mass surveillance; the whole internet doesn't need to know I bought a coffee here and a book there, the merchant doesn't need to know all my past purchases as well as future ones as s/he now knows who I am and can follow any future blockchain activity, and I don't need to know who else the merchant transacts with, and the amounts involved.

Don't get me wrong, I think you guys are doing an awesome job, just freestyling some philosophy and making suggestions.
