I approached it from both sides: designing the experience and thinking about how it becomes a real application.
On the design side, I worked through the apartment discovery, property details, saved listings, booking flow, dates, interactions, and UI system.
On the development side, I think through how the design translates into a working product using React Native, reusable components, interaction states, navigation, and responsive layouts.

For me, the Figma file is only part of the process. The real test is how well the idea survives when it becomes a working app.
OCR extracts business names, formation dates, and addresses from uploaded documents automatically. But users still need to trust what the system found before anything gets submitted.
We designed the confirmation flow around editable fields that surface extracted data clearly. Users review what the system found and correct where needed, rather than typing everything from scratch. The design choice was to make the AI output feel transparent and controllable.
The design choice was to make the AI output feel transparent and controllable. The result is a flow that reduces data entry to the minimum while keeping users fully in control of what gets submitted.
The editable-fields approach is smart, letting people verify OCR output instead of trusting it blindly probably saves you a ton of support tickets down the line.
