Prompt 1: Open the app and click try to start a new postUser clicked on the plus button at the bottom of the screenUser knew exactly what the plus would do/go after reading the prompt. Acted pretty familiar with the interface layout"I'd assume it's this giant plus button since it's a recipe app, right? I've seen a lot of apps with this function before"COMPLETE

Prompt 2: Create your new post and submitClicked on items to edit--could not make edits. Proceeded to try out the save draft button, back to edit, submittedUser was confused as to why the page was unable to be edited and no drop downs worked but assumed it was because it was a test product. "Oh, wow! I'm glad that I'm able to store drafts of my posts here because sometimes it's good to note down my recipe and continue to experiment over time."COMPLETE

How difficult was it for you to figure out how to start a new post? How did you go about it?Confused as to why it's so simple or if they did it wrong because they did it so quickly"The prompts were very straight forward. I'm guessing the input doesn't work because it's an example of how it would look but other than that I found that it was very similar to other apps I've used in the past that offer posting. The "+" is very widely used nowadays."

How would you describe the draft system on the product? How would you compare it to other products that utilize a post draft system?User seemed excited at the thought of being able to use this product." The draft system is great. I think the concept is perfect for a recipe app since I'm always experimenting with cooking so being able to ttake down multiple recipes at once by drafting helps. a lot. I haven't used a recipe app because I'm pretty lazy but I might pick this up as a notebook type of app since I'm able to just enter into fields, well, when you finish it I guess"
