OUR TEAM

Product designer (Me),  Project Manager, and 2 App Developers.

MY ROLE

Led a UI/UX audit and redesigned features end-to-end based on stakeholder insights.

Duration

2 months

Framing the Problem

How might we design a simple, intuitive workflow to streamline task discovery, enabling technicians to easily locate and complete their to-do tasks efficiently?

Main Focus

Focus 1

User Accessibility

Ensures compliance with WCAG standards, improving accessibility for colorblind users. Introduced tags alongside color coding to clearly indicate task statuses, making information easily identifiable for all technicians.

Focus 2

Simplifying the UI

Streamline the user interface by removing unnecessary information, colors, and components. Establish a clear visual hierarchy to align with the iOS Human Interface Guidelines.

Focus 3

Better Navigation

Improved app navigation with prominent call-to-action (CTA) buttons and an optimized menu system, enabling technicians to quickly identify and prioritize urgent tasks with ease.

Process

Identifying and prioritizing user jobs

We identified and prioritized key user jobs across personas, laying the foundation for our MVP. Engaging business partners in interviews brought valuable insights from engineers and account managers, whose deep knowledge of Task Explore’s history and backend infrastructure provided diverse perspectives for planning the MVP.

Stakeholder Interview

Insights from Key Business Partners

We engaged with six stakeholders from key business partners, including BP (UK), Aecom (NL), and Parkland (CA), to explore the challenges they encountered while collaborating with technicians and gather feedback on technicians' performance and reported issues.

USer Flow

In this stage, we focused on streamlining task searching and scheduling workflow.

After Design Phase

Once the core UX research and design development were completed, we collaborated closely with developers to ensure precise implementation, down to the last pixel. Additionally, we compiled a comprehensive report summarizing the insights gained from interviews and detailing the design solutions provided to the client.

DESIGN HighLight 1

Simple landing process for new users that doesn't require logging in

As a new user, people tends to be able to try new tool without too much complicated process or providing detailed personal information in the very beginning.

I designed a simple and cute landing process to engage our new users and make this process more enjoyable.

As the UI mock-up, only one question will be shown on each screen, and the max options are less than five for users to decide. It will help users to understand how to use the process very quickly and not to be struggling with making the choice.

DESIGN HighLight 2

Useful tool - Floating Timer

A floating timer button helps users easily tracking their time in the middle of doing a habit while being interrupted.

DESIGN HighLight 3

Customisable habit repeat pattern

On Repeat pattern setting page, to meet users’ various requirements we provide a proper ability for them being able to customise the repeat pattern. To make this process easy to start, I design a process with good priority.

The first thing on this screen is to set up the name of the habit, the starting date (end date is optional), the type & goal and the repeat pattern. On this screen, users have a simple repeat pattern to choose, eg Repeat every day, week or every other week. If they need more, they can click ‘Custom’ to set up their favourite repeat pattern.

On the Custom repeat pattern page, we start with choosing the Frequency, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Yearly. For example, users can choose the habit repeat every three days, repeat three times every month on 3rd, 13th and 23th, or repeat every month on the first Monday.

After finishing setting up the repeat pattern, it will show the description to let users know clearly their repeat pattern on the the new habit setting page.
