Splash screen shows confusing message "Initializing / Initializing DAO"

[devinbileck]

Upon launching, the splash screen initially shows the following. Perhaps it should show something like "Initializing Bitcoin network / Initializing DAO"?

A version number would be good to see on the splash screen too.

ON another topic. Once presented with the login and we see the forgot password button. I wonder how many people think its recoverable just by the presence of that button and never clicking it until needed. Can do with some re-thinking / have a plain text info message instead stating to not lose password cant be recovered.

[devinbileck]

Good suggestion regarding your second point. Perhaps some additional text to clarify that would be beneficial here.

Feel free to open a new issue for this!

@devinbileck Good point! I'll change the text.
@gibechoes Yes, it might be a good idea to communicate that better at this point as well. What exactly can be restored and what not if you forget your password.

@gibechoes As @devinbileck stated, please open another issue for that as this issue will be closed as soon as the new translation is merged to master.

Not 100% sure on the wording. Initializing Bitcoin network sounds a little bit as if we are initializing the Bitcoin network itself. It is more that we are initializing the connection to it.
What about: Initializing Bitcoin network connection?

What about
Connecting to Bitcoin network
or
Initializing connection to Bitcoin network ?

and btw

A version number would be good to see on the splash screen too.

would indeed be nice (if easy to implement)

Initializing connection to Bitcoin network

I had this already, but it was just too long. Maybe just Initializing network connection?

Regarding the version number, maybe @pedromvpg has a good idea where to put it in this screen? On the very bottom?

[ManfredKarrer]

Why not "Connecting to Bitcoin network"?

[devinbileck]

Agree with @ManfredKarrer. Is there a need to mention DAO here?

[ManfredKarrer]

Also at that stage we are not requesting DAO related data.

Also at that stage we are not requesting DAO related data.

It was just initialization process but yes, I also think it makes sense just to get rid of the initialization DAO part and change the existing one to Connecting to Bitcoin network.
I'll change the PR accordingly.
