Stop and play icon is unintuitive
in progress
Emmanuel Lopez
This is a UI/icon problem.
The stop play button does not communicate the idea of syncing. It actually took me a whole day to figure out that the square was a stop button. And it is not like you can point and click random things in apps like these, I learned that the hard way.
Maybe a ⏸️ or a 🔁 without the exclamation point or a ⏹️ but inside of a circle to make it obvious it's a stop play toggle. Also the force resync
--resync
button being the first item on the bar implies that's the primary function of that entry, when really it's traditionally ran once. IDK how UI design works, but it left me confused for a day.Here is my proposal on how the icons should be redesigned and reordered.

Hi Emmanuel
That's a great feedback!
We've probably never stepped back to actually review what UI mess we've created.
Icons were gradually added without much due process. Initially there was no edit option, no logs, no force resync.
We're going to include your feedback and likely rework that already in a next release.
Thank you, we wouldn't be able to improve this product without users like you!
