Talk-android: Use introduction screen

[tobiasKaminsky]

I think I remember that we discussed with @jancborchardt and @skjnldsv when creating Simple Signup, that this should then also used for talk…?

Android Files app / Talk

Instead of the introduction screen I use feature introductions once the user is near to using that feature. I currently use it in only one place due to time constraints, but this is what I prefer honestly as it's a way better way to show user the feature and how to use it.

The point of this main first run screen is that people see Simple Sign up. Currently you need to have your own server.

Also the idea of the introduction screen is to show what Talk + NC can do. Imagine someone is installing it "by accident". So a generic overview what the app is about is quite nice (at least this was one of the intention we figured out at previous hackweek, @jancborchardt).

I use feature introductions

This is a really really good idea, but does not conflict at all with the introduction screen.

EDIT: maybe you confuse introduction screen with the what's new slideshow.

OK, I can do an introduction screen first time you run the app indeed. @jancborchardt can you deliver the slides, please?

@tobiasKaminsky @skjnldsv and @jancborchardt - next time something like this is discussed I'd really appreciate to be involved rather than just telling me the "decision" :)

The slides are here: https://github.com/nextcloud/android/blob/59cf6b9ba4965f38f2749f0624013daf0b83c946/src/main/java/com/owncloud/android/ui/activity/FirstRunActivity.java#L241

If I recall it correctly, it was first about Simple Signup on Files as there Talk was not ready for using it with providers. While discussing it turned out that the introduction screen is missing as new users do not know what NC is all about.
So it was not intentionally to leave you out, but it arised during discussion…
