On the Website there are the two buttons “Save a copy” and “Download”.
Always when I want to download a Prezi for offline use, I accidentally click “Save a copy” as I want to *save it to the disk*. But this actually just duplicates the Prezi online and then I have to get rid of the copy and download with the right button.
So I’d suggest to rename the “Save a copy” button to “Duplicate” or something similar not involving the word “save”.
this might be an effect of the paradigm shift ‘desktop -> cloud computing’ But you are right: it’s a little confusing. At another place we call the same function “Make a copy”. I’ll relay your idea to the developers.
It was discussed internally, but apparently the responsible team decided to stick with what all other users got used to. I’m sorry and I’m sure you will get used to it sooner than you think.
