The challenge with extrinsic motivation: I am motivated to store my memories however, the task in itself of uploading photos is not fun. These Left-Brain Core Drives give me extrinsic motivation to use Carousel. These are great examples of Core Drive 2 (Development and Accomplishment) and Core Drive 4 (Ownership and Possession). Dropbox Carousel: function-focused designĬarousel makes it incredibly simple to upload photos, free up iPhone space, and organize and browse photos chronologically. In this post, we will examine why I made the switch from Carousel to Google Photos and how a human-focused design beats a function-focused design every time. This is the power of human-focused design over function-focused design. However, after watching Kim use Google Photos for a week, I immediately jumped ship from Carousel and made the move to Google Photos. Amazon Photo came out with a free service, but I didn’t make the switch from Carousel to Amazon. I ignored the free product because the functionality was basically the same and $99 was not a big enough pain for me to make the change. It’s hard to get someone to switch products, even if you offer something slightly better.
Through its function-focused design, Dropbox Carousel achieves its simple purpose. The motivation behind using photo cloud storage is very functional: I want to save my photos online so that they are never lost. “How about Google Photos? It’s free and it seems easy enough to use.” Kim did a quick search on the app store for photo storage. It seems like a waste if we’re both paying for it.” They have this nifty camera uploader that automatically uploads all of my photos to the cloud.” I responded.
“What should I use to save my photos online?” Kim asked.
