SmartLock login screen checkbox lacks clarity/context and is potentially confusing

Project Member Reported by jhawkins@chromium.org, Jun 4 2018

Issue description

The toggle for SmartLock login says, "Use Smart Lock to sign in to your account".

The term 'sign in' is often overloaded and confused with 'login' and 'unlock'.  I imagine most users don't know the difference between login/signin and unlock.

Additionally the only UI that shows SmartLock is enabled at all is a clear button that says "Turn off".

On top of that, there is no context about potential security/safety implications of turning on SL login.

This could definitely be cleared up.

Screenshots of current experience attached here.

Our inconsistent use of terminology ("login" / "sign in" / "unlock") should be a relatively easy fix. For this, I defer to jonann@

For the obtuse "turn off" button and opted-out state following feature setup, I will work with shibasheikh@ to define a cleaner experience.

Hi Jesse, I'm a little confused on this flow, looks like it tries to find the phone before you choose which phone? Are slides just out of order? It seems like it would be:


choose phone > set up Smart Lock on phone > Find phone from Chromebook > Get notification on phone > (what do you do with notification? enter a code? jsut tap to confirm? ) > Confirm on Chromebook.

Let's chat Friday if you're in.
