Redesigning Khatabook: When the app is harder than the paper ledger
Khatabook exists to replace the paper ledger small merchants have used for decades. But talk to actual users, and you'll find the daily-use stuff reminders, adding a contact, checking today's entries are buried under screens the paper version never had.
I picked this up as a self-initiated redesign, focused just on the customer-facing ledger experience. Three moves:
→ Reminders surfaced to the home screen as a horizontal carousel, no more digging → Bulk contact import, so onboarding doesn't mean adding 50 customers one by one → Cashbook reorganized by date, so "what happened today" is the default view, not a filter
No internal data, no formal usability testing, just competitive research, and one informal test that told me a lot about where people actually get stuck.
