Visualizing a User-Centric Experience
Rapid sketching (Low-Fid Wireframes) allowed the exploration of design patterns common among apps in the competitive landscape, helping understand which needed to carry over into the app to ensure usability.
Understanding What Users Find Intuitive, and Why
Mid-fidelity prototype testing, alongside Think Alouds, allowed to better understand how users expected to complete the tasks set for the testing. Analyzing their behavior, but more importantly, having a dialogue with them about what they expected, allowed to understand which adjustments needed to be made, such as the hierarchy and placement of some components.
Branding the Experience
High-fidelity prototype testing brought users to the closest experience yet, and it revealed some issues. While users were able to complete the tasks, they found that it had a lot of information per screen, and some small details such as status and iconography were not clear. Therefore, the content was then reduced, and design details were adjusted to make the experience more clear before creating the design system.
