Diana Yee – Week 04: Prototype, Visual Design

Peppercorn – A crowdsourced resource for best practices in the kitchen and cooking. Some revisions to the app based on the user tests from previous week: Results/Answers View Prefer an answer or advice to be consise, more immediate. Less scrolling, especially when already in the kitchen ready to cook. The results/answer could be shorter (but that’s dependent on the user). […]

Anne Peng Week 3 (For Aug 6)

Simply Cooked Marvel Prototype v2 https://marvelapp.com/29f0d67 Three Insights from Testing The step-by-step of adding a recipe was confusing to users because they could not see the next step. Instead of using a Next button, I put everything on a single page (e.g. name of recipe, images, ingredients list, directions). People weren’t immediately clear on the difference […]

What I learned from testing: I learned that if I was going to do the same interface as Snapchat that I needed to be consistent with that. People were confused if not. I found out that it was easier for users if I put the profile above the main page instead of swiping over twice […]

Joshua Taylor – Week 4

3 Things I Learned From Testing: I had a bookmark icon on the top right hand corner for viewing saved items. In testing I quickly realized that nobody even noticed it, let alone understood that profiles were saved there. I tried to change this in my design by having a “Saved” tab. When users tapped […]
