Critical UX Fixes

Addresses two major issues reported by user testing:

Issue #1: Long-Press Auto-Saves (Broken Flow)

Problem:

  • User long-presses Discount → selects 50% → item IMMEDIATELY saves
  • No way to review selection before confirming
  • Cannot change mind after long-press

Root Cause:

const handleDiscountSelect = (percent: number) => {
  setDiscountPercent(percent);
  onClassify('discount', percent, undefined); // ← PROBLEM: auto-saves
};

Solution:

const handleDiscountSelect = (percent: number) => {
  setDiscountPercent(percent);
  setDiscountSheetOpen(false);
  localStorage.setItem('gotjunk_default_discount', percent.toString());
  // Haptic feedback only - NO onClassify call
};

New Flow:

  1. User long-presses Discount → action sheet opens
  2. User selects 50% → action sheet closes, modal shows "50% OFF"
  3. User taps Discount button → confirms and saves item
  4. User can change mind by long-pressing again or selecting different classification

Issue #2: Defaults Don't Persist

Problem:

  • User sets discount to 50% via long-press
  • Next photo capture → modal resets to 75% (hardcoded default)
  • User must long-press and re-select 50% every single time

Root Cause:

const [discountPercent, setDiscountPercent] = useState(75); // Always 75%
const [bidDurationHours, setBidDurationHours] = useState(48); // Always 48h

Solution:

const [discountPercent, setDiscountPercent] = useState(() => {
  const saved = localStorage.getItem('gotjunk_default_discount');
  return saved ? parseInt(saved, 10) : 75; // Load saved or default
});

Persistence:

  • gotjunk_default_discount → stores 25, 50, or 75
  • gotjunk_default_bid_duration → stores 24, 48, or 72
  • Loaded on modal mount (lazy initialization)
  • Persists across sessions

UX Flow (Fixed)

First Capture (No Saved Preferences):

  1. User captures photo → modal shows with 75% OFF / 48h (fallback defaults)
  2. User long-presses Discount → action sheet opens
  3. User selects 50% → action sheet closes, modal shows "50% OFF"
  4. User taps Discount → item saved with 50% discount
  5. Value saved to localStorage

Second Capture (Has Saved Preferences):

  1. User captures photo → modal shows with 50% OFF (loaded from localStorage)
  2. User taps Discount → item saved with 50% (no need to long-press again)

Changing Default:

  1. User captures photo → modal shows with 50% OFF (current saved default)
  2. User long-presses Discount → action sheet opens
  3. User selects 75% → action sheet closes, modal shows "75% OFF"
  4. User taps Discount → item saved with 75% discount
  5. New value (75%) saved to localStorage for future captures

Auto-Posting Investigation

Original Report: "Sometimes I don't get an option when taking a pic and it automatically posts"

Root Causes Identified & Fixed:

  1. Framer Motion gesture conflict (PR HOTFIX: Classification modal tap gestures not working #32) - whileTap was consuming tap events
  2. Long-press auto-save (this PR) - Action sheet selections were calling onClassify immediately
  3. No user confirmation - Item saved without explicit tap-to-confirm

Prevention:

  • Removed all auto-save paths from action sheet handlers
  • User must explicitly tap classification button to save
  • Modal only closes on explicit save or cancel

Technical Changes

ClassificationModal.tsx:

  • Updated handleDiscountSelect: Remove onClassify call, add localStorage save
  • Updated handleBidSelect: Remove onClassify call, add localStorage save
  • Updated useState initialization: Lazy load from localStorage
  • Added haptic feedback on selection (vibrate pattern)

localStorage Keys:

  • gotjunk_default_discount: "25" | "50" | "75"
  • gotjunk_default_bid_duration: "24" | "48" | "72"

Haptic Feedback:

  • Pattern: [10, 50, 10] (short buzz, pause, short buzz)
  • Fires on action sheet selection (confirms visual feedback)

Testing Required

Test 1: Long-Press Flow

  • Capture photo → modal opens
  • Long-press Discount → action sheet opens
  • Select 50% → action sheet closes, modal shows "50% OFF"
  • Modal STILL OPEN (not auto-saved)
  • Tap Discount → item saved

Test 2: Defaults Persist

  • Set discount to 50% via long-press, tap to save
  • Capture another photo → modal opens with 50% OFF (not 75%)
  • Tap Discount → saves with 50%
  • Repeat 3x → always shows 50% as default

Test 3: Changing Defaults

  • Current default: 50%
  • Long-press Discount → select 25% → modal shows "25% OFF"
  • Tap Discount → saves with 25%
  • Next capture → modal shows 25% OFF (new default)

Test 4: Bid Duration

  • Long-press Bid → select 72h → modal shows "72h"
  • Tap Bid → saves with 72h duration
  • Next capture → modal shows 72h as default

Windsurf Protocol Implementation:
- Created useLongPress hook with iOS Safari compatibility
- Added ActionSheetDiscount for quick discount % selection (25%/50%/75%)
- Added ActionSheetBid for quick bid duration selection (24h/48h/72h)
- Updated ClassificationModal with tap/long-press gesture support
- Updated App.tsx to handle discount % and bid duration parameters

UX Improvements:
- Single tap: Select classification with defaults (75% discount, 48h bid)
- Long-press Discount: Opens bottom sheet with 25%/50%/75% options
- Long-press Bid: Opens bottom sheet with 24h/48h/72h options
- Haptic feedback on long-press trigger and selection
- iOS Safari optimizations: touch-action manipulation, prevent context menu

Technical:
- Pointer Events with Touch/Mouse fallback
- 450ms long-press threshold, 10px movement cancellation
- Debounce: 800ms between long-press triggers
- Mutually exclusive tap/long-press gestures
- Helper text: 'Tap to select • Long-press to edit'

Fixes #issue (classification modal not allowing option selection)

Hotfix for PR #31:
- Removed whileTap/whileHover from Discount and Bid buttons
- Changed from motion.button to plain button elements
- Added active:scale-95 CSS for visual feedback
- Resolves gesture handler conflict preventing tap selection

Issue: Framer Motion's whileTap was consuming tap events before custom
useLongPress handlers could process them, breaking tap-to-select functionality.

Solution: Use plain button elements with CSS transitions for visual feedback,
allowing custom pointer event handlers to work correctly.
Fixes two critical UX issues:

1. Long-press auto-save bug:
   - BEFORE: Long-press → select value → immediately saves item
   - AFTER: Long-press → select value → action sheet closes → user taps button to save
   - Fixed handleDiscountSelect and handleBidSelect to NOT call onClassify

2. Defaults don't persist:
   - BEFORE: Always reset to 75% discount / 48h bid on each capture
   - AFTER: Selected values persist as defaults for future captures
   - Uses localStorage: 'gotjunk_default_discount' and 'gotjunk_default_bid_duration'
   - Loads saved values on modal mount with lazy useState initialization

UX Flow (now correct):
1. User captures photo → modal shows with saved defaults (or 75%/48h first time)
2. User long-presses Discount → action sheet opens
3. User selects 50% → action sheet closes, modal shows '50% OFF'
4. User taps Discount button → saves item with 50% discount
5. Next capture → modal opens with 50% as default

Auto-posting investigation:
- Auto-save was caused by handleDiscountSelect/handleBidSelect calling onClassify
- Framer Motion gesture conflict (fixed in PR #32) may have also contributed
- Both issues now resolved

Technical:
- Removed onClassify calls from action sheet handlers
- Added localStorage persistence for user preferences
- Added haptic feedback on value selection (vibrate pattern)
- Lazy useState initialization to load defaults only once
