[Bug 1389192] [NEW] "Fitbit" text in Dashboard has poor grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and call to action
Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 14.10 r6
0. Remove your Fitbit account from the phone if you have one.
1. Go to the "Dashboard" screen and scroll to "Fitbit".
What you see: "Please setup an account in system settings"
What's wrong with this:
A. "Setup" is a noun, so "Please setup" is ungrammatical.
B. "System Settings" is a proper noun, so "system settings" is miscapitalized.
C. A caption is a complete sentence (sometimes more than one), and this sentence is missing its period.
D. There's no explanation of why you *should* set up an account.
E. "In system settings" is a useless direction. The word "Fitbit" does not appear anywhere on the System Settings screen, leaving you lost.
F. Sending people to System Settings is the wrong thing to do in the first place: they might already have a Fitbit account set up.
What you should see: something like
------------
Track your fitness activities here using a Fitbit account.
( Use Fitbit… ) ( No Thanks )
------------
