Time-tracking apps have a trust problem. Sidekick set out to solve it with a privacy-first approach, giving teams the accountability they need without the Big Brother feeling, and I got to design their UI! I'm so excited to be able to share this project after so long

Really clean UI 👌 Curious — how did you approach designing for ‘trust’? That’s a tricky UX problem.

Thanks, well, the trust issue was tackled by the dev team making it privacy-first. I made sure to convey it through the branding and making sure the user knew who was allowed to see what

Love that approach. Privacy-first decisions really show when the UX reinforces them instead of just stating them. Nicely handled 👌

I studied the world’s best mobile patterns on Mobbin. From health rings to social matching, to build a research-backed moodboard. I was inspired by apps like Greg, Apple Health, Shop and Bumble. I translated these high-end UX behaviors into a cohesive design system that prioritizes clarity and local trust.

Then I jumped with all my ideas into Figma Make. Here it comes Pottr, a fusion between quantified plant health with a social graph. It includes plant care tracking but it doesn't stop there. It’s an ecosystem where you match with neighbors based on shared plants, trade seeds or tools, and request community care when you travel. It’s a premium, hyperlocal take on sustainability with custom branding and a neighborhood "open-world" map.
