Revamping a Mobile App for Enhanced User Experience

Tina Siassi

The Problem
Editing pins take too many steps (4-6 steps), which makes users err and confused when they: 1. Accidentally pin to the wrong board. 2. Want to delete an older pin from a board.
The Solution
Simplify the user flow by reducing the number of steps via two additional features:
1. Undo/ Move Function 2. Trash Can Button
The Impact
Decreased user error rates from:‍ 50% to 17% for editing pin location. 60% to 10% for deleting older pin.
100% found the new features more intuitive.
