E.gg - digital zine creator app for iOS: Usability suggestion - exit user after changing profile photo

 iOS 14.2

E.gg - digital zine creator (version 1.0.1)

Date: 11/20/20

Description:

Here's a small usability suggestion for the E.gg - digital zine creator app for iOS that was just released. 

The process of changing the profile picture is very cumbersome, and not very user friendly. 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a new account

2. Upload a new profile photo (from either the camera or album)

3. Note that user is left on a screen with two options - an "X" and an "Upload Photo" button

4. Press the "X" button to cancel out

5. Cancel out of the edit option 

Result: Confusing user experience for uploading a new profile photo inside of the new e.gg app for iOS

Expected: After successful upload of a profile photo, the user should be taken back to a profile screen. User should not be stranded on a screen with an "X" or an "Upload photo" option after a photo has been successfully uploaded

 Select the "Edit" option to change the default egg symbol...

Select the "Change Photo" option...

Select either the "Camera" or "Gallery" options...

Choose a photo...

After uploading the photo, instead of the app taking the user back to the previous screen, the user is left stranded here. Was the photo successfully uploaded? Why isn't here a "Done" button? Is the "X" a "Done" button, or a close/cancel button? 

After exiting out, the default egg icon doesn't change. What happened to the photo I selected?

Now the photo updates! Confusing!
