User unable to add contacts to group after creation

At an event last week, I was testing Briar with a few people and noticed that someone was unable to add contacts to a group after creating it.

In the past, the "Add Users" screen came up as part of the creation process. We changed this for technical reasons if I remember correctly. So after a creating the group, this is what the user currently sees:

device-2017-11-20-120338

So there's also no empty state message with a hint, because the first join message is always there.

The user I observed tried everything they could and I didn't help. They clicked everywhere, but the share icon. So they failed the task and gave up. Afterwards, I asked why they didn't try the share icon and apparently the expectation is that this is always used to share something from the app with other apps.

The user suggested to change the UI as follows as this would make it clearer how to add users:

device-2017-11-20-120705

To increase the chance of success, we could add the same button to the member list screen.
