Warpcast

- Go to rewards leaderboard 
- See who’s on top 
- Get curious about “oh I wonder what they’ve been casting about”
- Tap on their profile to see their latest casts
- Take the only available action and unfollow them instead 

@blockheim I can’t

yeah this is such a pain point. not sure how this thing even shipped without being able to go to someone’s profile

We have heard this many times. We are aware this is a sub-optimal UX but we are taking our time on "fixing" this and want to explain why.

Most frames are stateful so if we allowed them to navigate to screens we would have to first build a way for users to get back to their last state in the frame when they indicate "back" action.

Simply put: you scroll to item 60 in rewards frame, you press to see user profile, frame closes, app navigates. You know press back. What do you expect to see? Most users expect to see frame to open when they last seen it (item 60).

This means in practice — we have to either build a way for frames to work "picture in picture" or some stateful pattern or we move the rewards frame out of frame context and make it its own screen so everything works as expected on Warpcast.

Short term we are likely to move rewards to its own screen and deprecate the frame implementation.

Details below.

What is your suggestion on how navigations should occur for frame action clicks? Keep in mind we don't have a way to support picture-in-picture format at this time and frames are stateless browsers.

Just show the profile / casts inside the frame and let the user interact. You’ve the signer already

That would require us to build a whole profile view for a frame.

What is the best UX here is actually that the rewards frame should not be a frame. It should be its own screen on Warpcast.

or a way to minimize frames (like telegram), but that would require a lot more navigation complexity.

Yeah minimizing and picture-in-picture is my fav too but too worried about implementation quirks in mobile.

yeah PiP is ideal 

I assumed enabling it in frame would be easier than the rest but maybe not
