Old UI Was Better

[AbdelazizEl7or]

I still love and prefer the old UI 👌 The new UI's colors are so gloomy. It seems like it was designed 20 years ago 😁

[mike-ayres]

I thought the site got hacked. There was no real indication that it was going to switch, at least not one that I paid attention to. Normally I am asked to opt into a change. I agree with you on the look of it.

OLD UI I WAAAAY BETTER!

[rtamarindo]

100% agreed

[AbdelazizEl7or]

It's better to roll back to the old interface, which was much easier.
Now, I'm immersed and lost in the new user interface.

[UtkarshYadav01]

Bring old UI back

[AbdelazizEl7or]

Bring the old UI back.

You can edit the old one to add some features instead of changing the whole design.

[keithdanielll]

I strongly agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[viktaur]

Please bring back the old UI!!!

[iowjfiow]

a lot better

[anviod]

I agreed

[timofei-likharev]

I agreed, old UI was perfect

The new UI is more functional, but I must agree with the others' sentiment; it's quite dreary. But hey, who said authentication should be fun?! (jk) You all put a lot of work and thought into the UI. Besides the color scheme and overall vibe, it's hard to find the new functionality. I visited the new page at least thrice before I noticed where the new JWT ENCODE link was. It took me a while- maybe two visits- to find the new claims table; you might want to make this the default, by the way. Finally, the example JWT is quite thin. This would be a great opportunity to teach new developers about JWT capabilities, thereby increasing your Auth0 conversions.

Better yet. Kindly provide a way to switch back to the old UI for those who don't like the new UI.

💯

The old UI was much better.

Some specific things about the old UI I liked that have disappeared from the new UI

• distinct colouring that make it obvious which parts of the decoded side map from which parts of the encoded side
  • New UI colouring is super subtle and barely noticeable, and decoded header/payload/sig sections aren't coloured to match the raw token parts.
• an "Algorithm" drop down to easily choose the algo, auto-populated from the encoded JWT if there is one
  • Does the new UI even support different algorithms? which ones? yes obviously it does, but it's not at all apparent as there is no drop down selector.
• claim name and value hover tooltips are much more pleasant to use. They look nicer and they're off the side a little instead of directly over top of the claim name or value.

One specific thing I like about the new UI,

• the two-pane layout isn't pushed all the way down 'below-the-fold' like it is on the old UI
• The claims table view is kinda neat, although the more usable tooltips on the old UI make it unnecessary

tl-dr - Go back to the old UI, collapse the page headers and branding to put the encoded and decoded panes front-and-center, and it'd be perfect.

• please return old ui

Older UI was better. New one is unintuitive and in cases where correct , exact standards are not adhered to (JWT secret size), it is unusable. Enforcing standards is not the responsibility of a decoder/encoder. It should work regardless

[ronaldroe]

What made the older UI better is its simplicity. It took me a minute to realize that to encode and decode are now separate states of the app. With the old UI, wherever I typed, it would generate everything else that I wasn't editing.

But if you do nothing else, please add the hover for the timestamps in the encoder.

l like the oid version

[pavelezbob]

how to mutate the json, like in the old UI?

[AhmadAbdallah13]

did you know how?

[SaifAqqad]

IMO the issue with the new UI is not the design itself (colors, etc) but the UX (weird behavior of the tooltips, separating the encoding/decoding to different tabs, etc)

[teja463]

This new interface looks very basic and ugly. Old interface is way better than this minimal UI.

[Lanny]

I'm hosting the old version for my own purposes here: https://jwt.lannysport.net/

If anyone wants to use it as well, feel free

[keithdanielll]

YESSS!

[AbdelazizEl7or]

Thanks, amazing !!!

[ghaliela]

How to switch to old UI on jwt.io

Just change ab-variant cookie to control

(new UI value is `variant`)

[advfromua]

Dude thanks very much!!

[AbdelazizEl7or]

This makes things better.

[0xCA71]

Thank you~~

[anviod]

control

oKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

[advfromua]

New UI made me angry on my IT day to day, because now I am unable to edit the payload it self despite the interface sucks.

[xixas]

new is ugly, hurt my eyes.

[0xCA71]

For user convenience, a toggle button to alternate between the old and new versions would be beneficial

[eliezergwmnet]

please return old ui

[waqas-syed]

The new UI is not intuitive at all. I prefer the old UI.

Please provide a button to toggle to the old UI if someone wants to.

[ManuLpz4]

Old but gold, give it back!

[brian-duffy]

Is there any way to switch back? Don't think the cookie setting method works anymore
