Most fitness apps are cluttered
Ruan Visagie
Most fitness apps are cluttered and bury the features people use most, right when they're sweating and need information fast. CULT brings workouts, progress, nutrition and profile into one focused experience that works mid-session.
I audited 3 competitor apps, gave the client the full structure in 7 lo-fi wireframes, then designed a dark-mode design system and 14 production-quality hi-fi screens across 6 core flows. I tested the designs with 10 users, shared every difficulty with the team, and redesigned the screens people struggled with.
What I delivered
Competitor research (3 apps)
7 lo-fi wireframes, signed off before hi-fi
14 hi-fi screens across 6 core flows
Onboarding: goal, weight and body metrics, Apple Health sync
Workout tracking, live sessions, progress and streak views
A dark-mode design system
User testing with 10 users, with screens redesigned
Results
A faster onboarding flow
Fewer interaction points, so fewer errors mid-workout
