Expected behaviour

Upload button should be easy to distinguish.

Actual behaviour

When I see the upload button which is a single "up arrow", I tend to automatically click on it believing it's a "Go to parent directory" button

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open the files app
  2. Go into a subdirectory
  3. Look at the navigation bar

Server configuration

ownCloud version: 6.0 pre alpha

Suggested fixes

Add the text "Upload" behind the arrow
Use another icon, for example an up arrow with a file icon in the background.
Or an arrow with a cloud, like this one: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icon/cloud-upload/

@jancborchardt I'll second this. I've made this exact mistake, and several other users I've had testing Owncloud have as well.
