    Low contrast on 'Dışa Aktar' text on black button

    Major
    Color & Contrast
    The Problem
    The white text 'Dışa Aktar' on a solid black rounded button on the light theme side is very readable, but on the dark theme side the black-filled button with white text is reversed but remains clear, so contrast is sufficient here. The issue is prominent only on the light theme where the text is white on black, which is good, but any black text or icons on dark areas might be problematic if examined closely.
    Why it Matters
    Low contrast text can be difficult for users with visual impairments or in bright light conditions to read, affecting usability and accessibility.
    How to Fix
    Ensure that all text on buttons maintains a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 as per WCAG AA. The black button with white text is okay, but verify the light theme's black button with white text remains distinct.

    Inconsistent Button Style for 'Dışa Aktar' Across Themes

    Major
    Visual Consistency, Imagery & Media
    The Problem
    The 'Dışa Aktar' button uses a solid black background with white text on the light theme, but uses a solid white background with black text on the dark theme, creating inconsistent visual weight and style.
    Why it Matters
    Inconsistent button styles can confuse users and make the interface feel less polished and trustworthy.
    How to Fix
    Unify the button styles across themes by using a consistent approach such as an outlined or filled style with consistent text and background color relationships that adapt appropriately for light and dark themes.

    No clear location indicator for current screen

    Major
    Orientation Missing (Environment/Role/Location)
    The Problem
    The app screen shows editing tools and a media timeline but lacks any text or visual indication to inform users where in the app flow they currently are (e.g., no screen title or breadcrumb).
    Why it Matters
    Users may feel lost or uncertain of their context, reducing confidence and ease of navigation.
    How to Fix
    Add a clear screen title or contextual header near the top that labels the current editor or mode being used.

    No Confirmation or Warning for Export Action

    Major
    Tone, Friendliness & Delight
    The Problem
    The 'Dışa Aktar' (Export) button is clearly visible but lacks any reassuring message or confirmation step before initiating export.
    Why it Matters
    Users might accidentally export content without realizing potential consequences such as overwriting existing files or exposing sensitive data.
    How to Fix
    Add a confirmation dialog or reassuring message explaining what will happen after the export and how users can control or cancel the action.

    Small media control buttons require larger tap targets

    Major
    Accessibility & Input Ergonomics
    The Problem
    The media control icons below the video preview (play, undo, redo) appear smaller than the recommended minimum touch target of 44x44 pixels, making them harder to tap accurately.
    Why it Matters
    Small tap targets increase the chance of input errors and user frustration, especially on mobile devices where finger precision is limited.
    How to Fix
    Increase the size of the clickable media control buttons to meet at least 44x44 pixels or add sufficient padding around the icons to enlarge the tap area.

    Small vertical sidebar buttons need bigger touch areas

    Major
    Accessibility & Input Ergonomics
    The Problem
    The vertical sidebar buttons with icons for volume, music, and text appear small and might have tight spacing, making accurate taps challenging.
    Why it Matters
    Users with larger fingers or users in motion may accidentally tap the wrong button or miss the target altogether.
    How to Fix
    Increase button sizes and spacing between them to at least 44x44 pixels per button for easier finger tapping.

    Export Button 'Dışa Aktar' Lacks Progress or Confirmation

    Major
    Flow & States Completeness
    The Problem
    The screen shows an export button labeled 'Dışa Aktar' to export the video, but there is no visible indication of progress, success, or failure feedback on the export action.
    Why it Matters
    Users may be unsure if the export action has started, is in progress, or completed, leading to confusion and potential repeated taps or abandonment.
    How to Fix
    Add clear loading indicators after tapping the export button, success confirmation, and error messages if export fails.

    No visible confirmation for possible destructive export action

    Major
    Destructive Action Without Safeguard (Confirm/Undo)
    The Problem
    The 'Dışa Aktar' (Export) button triggers potentially irreversible actions such as overwriting or sharing content, but there is no visible confirmation dialog or undo feature to prevent accidental export.
    Why it Matters
    Users could accidentally trigger the export action, possibly causing unintended sharing or loss of unsaved work, which leads to frustration or data loss.
    How to Fix
    Implement a confirmation dialog before exporting or provide an undo option after export, clarifying the action and preventing mistakes.

    Low contrast on 'Dışa Aktar' button background in dark mode

    Moderate
    Color & Contrast
    The Problem
    On the dark theme side, the white background of the 'Dışa Aktar' button with black text is clear, but the text within it has lower contrast compared to the light side's black button with white text, which might be borderline but still readable. The background area behind the button shows a black background, creating a slight contrast issue with the button's white color but not directly impacting text contrast.
    Why it Matters
    Users with vision impairments might find it harder to distinguish button text if contrast is too low, decreasing content clarity.
    How to Fix
    Confirm the text color on the white button background meets WCAG AA contrast ratio. Adjust text color to a darker shade or button background to a lighter shade if needed.

    Low Visual Hierarchy Between Primary Controls and Timeline Labels

    Moderate
    Content Readability & Clarity
    The Problem
    The timeline labels (e.g., 00:00, 00:02) and the primary control buttons (Düzenle, Ses, Metin, etc.) are similar in size and weight, causing a flat visual hierarchy. This reduces the ability to quickly distinguish between interactive controls and timeline information.
    Why it Matters
    Users might have difficulty quickly scanning and differentiating control buttons from timeline data, potentially slowing down video editing tasks.
    How to Fix
    Increase font weight or size of primary control labels and/or dim timeline labels with smaller font or lighter color to establish clear visual hierarchy.
    Issue Highlights

    Primary action label 'Dışa Aktar' is vague for export context

    Moderate
    Conversion & Actions
    The Problem
    The primary CTA button is labeled 'Dışa Aktar', which likely means 'Export'. While meaningful, it may lack specificity about the export format or next step, which can lead to some hesitation or confusion about the precise outcome or destination of this action.
    Why it Matters
    Users might hesitate or be unsure if 'Export' means saving, sharing, or uploading, causing friction in completing the intended task.
    How to Fix
    Enhance the primary CTA label to be more specific, e.g. 'Export Video', 'Save & Export', or add a tooltip or subtext clarifying the export destination or format.

    Multiple Separate Controls for Media Layers Increase Cognitive Load

    Moderate
    Efficiency & Cognitive Load
    The Problem
    The screen displays separate controls for video, audio, and text layers with individual buttons for each, creating multiple small action areas scattered over the timeline and control bar.
    Why it Matters
    Having to manage separate controls for each media type increases mental effort and can slow down user workflow due to frequent micro-decisions about which control to use.
    How to Fix
    Combine media layer controls into a more integrated or contextual interaction model that reduces the number of discrete steps required to edit multiple layers.

    Multiple Visual Elements Compete for Attention in Timeline

    Moderate
    Efficiency & Cognitive Load
    The Problem
    The timeline contains multiple overlapping elements like thumbnails, audio waveforms, and text bubbles, all visually distinct and close together, which may overwhelm users.
    Why it Matters
    Excess visual stimuli create clutter that makes it harder for users to focus on the relevant editing elements, increasing errors or delays.
    How to Fix
    Simplify the timeline by collapsing or combining layers visually and using clearer grouping or colors to guide focus.

    Low contrast on timeline timestamps

    Moderate
    Color & Contrast
    The Problem
    The small time-stamp text below the video preview (e.g., 00:00, 00:02, 00:04) appears low contrast against the white background on the left and somewhat better but still faint against black background on the right side, potentially failing WCAG AA standard.
    Why it Matters
    Users with vision impairments may have trouble reading timeline timestamps, affecting usability of the video editing interface.
    How to Fix
    Increase contrast of timestamp text by using a darker shade on light backgrounds and a lighter shade or more vivid color on dark backgrounds to meet at least 4.5:1 ratio.

    Small Font Size on Timeline Timecode Labels

    Moderate
    Content Readability & Clarity
    The Problem
    The timecode labels on the timeline (e.g., 00:00, 00:02, 00:04) appear to be very small, making them difficult to read especially on smaller phone screens.
    Why it Matters
    Users might struggle to read timecodes accurately, reducing precision in editing and overall usability.
    How to Fix
    Increase font size and use a clearer font weight and color with sufficient contrast against the background.

    Misaligned Timeline and Icon Buttons in Bottom Toolbar

    Moderate
    Visual Consistency, Imagery & Media
    The Problem
    The bottom toolbar icons and labels ('Düzenle', 'Ses', 'Metin', 'Efektler', 'Alt Y') are not vertically and horizontally aligned consistently, and their spacing appears uneven within both light and dark themes.
    Why it Matters
    Misalignment disrupts visual flow and makes the interface appear unrefined, increasing cognitive effort to understand grouped controls.
    How to Fix
    Align icons and text labels uniformly using a consistent grid or spacing system, ensuring equal horizontal and vertical padding across all buttons.
    Issue Highlights

    Crowded editing controls with multiple small icons

    Moderate
    Navigation & Structure
    The Problem
    The bottom row of editing buttons (Düzenle, Ses, Metin, Efektler, Alt Y) contains many comparable sized buttons located close together, increasing the chance of mis-taps on small screens.
    Why it Matters
    Cluttered clickable areas can cause user frustration as it takes more effort to accurately tap the desired control.
    How to Fix
    Increase spacing between buttons or group secondary tools in expandable menus to reduce visual and interactive noise.
    Issue Highlights

    Plus button too close to video timeline thumbnails

    Moderate
    Accessibility & Input Ergonomics
    The Problem
    The plus '+' icon button on the right side of the timeline thumbnails is very close to the thumbnails, which may cause accidental taps when trying to select thumbnails.
    Why it Matters
    Insufficient spacing between interactive elements can lead to mis-taps and decrease overall usability.
    How to Fix
    Add horizontal spacing between the plus icon button and timeline thumbnails to reduce overlap in hit targets.
    Issue Highlights

    No Guidance After Video Editing Completion

    Moderate
    Flow & States Completeness
    The Problem
    After editing the video timeline and applying effects or text, there is no clear indication or prompt guiding users on what to do next besides the export button.
    Why it Matters
    Without explicit next-step prompts or workflow guidance, users might hesitate or be uncertain about finishing their editing process and exporting, possibly leading to confusion or premature exit.
    How to Fix
    Include subtle in-app tips, visual cues, or modal dialogs that encourage users to review and export or save their edits before leaving.

    Ambiguous Label on 'Dışa Aktar' Button

    Minor
    Content Readability & Clarity
    The Problem
    The button labeled 'Dışa Aktar' (Export) does not specify what is being exported. There is no contextual label indicating the export format or file type.
    Why it Matters
    Users may be uncertain about what the export button does or what content or format will be exported, causing hesitation or errors.
    How to Fix
    Add a subtitle or tooltip clarifying what 'Dışa Aktar' exports, e.g., 'Export video' or export format details.

    Unclear Labeling of Export Button Language Consistency

    Minor
    Tone, Friendliness & Delight
    The Problem
    The export button label 'Dışa Aktar' uses a formal term which may feel technical or impersonal for casual users without any additional friendly wording or tooltip.
    Why it Matters
    Users unfamiliar with the term might hesitate or feel uncertain about its function, reducing trust and increasing friction.
    How to Fix
    Use simpler language or add a friendly tooltip or subtext like 'Save your video' to reduce uncertainty.

    Dropdown control for resolution unclear as interactive

    Minor
    Accessibility & Input Ergonomics
    The Problem
    The resolution selector labeled '1080P' has minimal affordance (just a small arrow) which may not clearly communicate it is a dropdown button to all users.
    Why it Matters
    If users do not recognize interactive elements, they may miss important functionality, limiting their ability to control settings.
    How to Fix
    Increase the visual affordance of the dropdown by adding a visible border or background change on hover/press to clearly indicate interactivity.

    Separate Format Resolution Dropdown Adds Extra Decision

    Minor
    Efficiency & Cognitive Load
    The Problem
    The resolution dropdown ('1080P') at the top requires the user to decide on output quality before exporting, which is not always necessary at this point.
    Why it Matters
    For many users, the export resolution is either fixed or less relevant, forcing an unnecessary decision that interrupts the export flow.
    How to Fix
    Auto-select the most appropriate resolution by default and expose the dropdown only when advanced options are needed.
