    Honestly I think this is awful. Good UX explains the actions without having to use a legend to decipher it.

    Triangle is bleach? Circle square is tumble dry?

      Dry Flat makes sense. As does the Iron symbol. But yeah some of the others aren’t as clear.

        Tbf the square could very well be a stylized tumble dryer, and in 90% of the clothes I own the temperatures are indicated by writing instead of dots. Also a normal user wouldn’t need to know about bleach or dry clean.

      i wonder if these are aimed more at laundry workers than home consumers, because that is a fair bit to memorize without it being intuitive
