[Android] Hamburger - Settings - Types : Rename to avoid misunderstanding #60
Description
Description
There are two "Types" forms that look absolutelyt the same, but work differently - one for filtering the signals shown and one for filtering the notifications received. And because they have absolutely the same titles, it can confuse the user and he or she will not know how to setup the device properly. Easiest fix is to rename one of the two forms, so that the user will notice the difference. For example change the Settings label from "Types" to "Notifications" (and the page title too).
Steps to reproduce
- Login and click on the main navigation filtering button
- Checkout how the page looks like
- Go to Settings and click the "Types" link
- Checkout how the page looks like and compare it to the filtering page from step 2
Expected result
The two pages have different titles, so a user can make a difference between them
Actual result
The two pages have same titles, so a user can't make a difference between them

By now, on the filter pop-up on the map, we have a message saying: "Choose signal types you want to view", while in the setting we have just "Signal Types". @BurningAXE - do you think that they are different enough or we should add some more detailed message?

I think the filter pop-up has a clear description. Settings would benefit from updated descriptions, though. On the main settings screen there are descriptive footers but we can also change the headers, e.g. "RADIUS" -> "NOTIFICATION RADIUS", "SIGNAL TIMEOUT" -> "NOTIFICATION SIGNAL TIMEOUT", "TYPES" -> "NOTIFICATION TYPES". And change similarly the title on the types selection screen. Maybe also add the footer "Signal types you want to be notified about" from the previous screen as a header/footer on the selection screen. Opinions?
