But that depends on easier for whom; the issue is that is a system is very easy for beginners it will be crap as an expert and vice versa. This is the reason a lot of applications used to have a beginner/expert mode switch. When I use a mobile app, it is usually beginner only, so every time I have to go through the same steps and explanation wizards. I don't want that; most of these things, for experts, would be one form while for beginners they are 20+ pages. Literally.

Error messages are very generic and are passed immediately to support (more work, more time for an expert who probably would understand the real error).

Nothing wrong with that but it is not easier to use for me once I am an expert; it is harder and more annoying.

I would like expert mode in many apps.
