The task was to copy the Stories feature from Instagram. Though the spec called it "Stories-like feature similar to Instagram", based on the feedback I received it seems they expected a clone of the app in 4 hours. The spec is quite simple on paper (stories list; tapping on it shows the story content; marking the story as seen; ability to like a story; persistence across relaunches; dynamically loading more stories). However it mentions that they "place great emphasis on both product execution and user experience". So basically they expect a pixel-perfect clone of the Stories feature, complete with exactly the same UX, even though most of these expectations are not specified.
