👉Market research
The claim
The awareness of winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding growing rapidly. There have been around 400 million ski visits in the past few years
The problem
When you come to a new place it`s hard to know all the good places to spend holidays with different activities. Also, we all want to escape queues.
👉Presentation of the Alpas App
👉Low-fidelity wireframes
Wireframes are visual representations of the layout and structure of a website or mobile application. Wireframes are usually created using simple shapes, lines, and boxes to represent the different components of the design, such as navigation menus, content sections, buttons, and forms.
Wireframes help to ensure that the design is organized and easy to navigate, and can also help to identify potential issues or challenges in the user experience before any visual design elements have been added.
👉High-fidelity UI Design
Visual designs refer to the aesthetic and stylistic elements of a website or mobile application, including the use of color, typography, images, and other visual elements. Visual design plays an important role in creating a strong brand identity and establishing an emotional connection with users.
👉Case research results
Prototype validation:
I validated my prototype with 3 people. Each was given 3 Promts:
Promt 1 From the home screen, buy a ticket
Promt 1 Follow-Up: How easy it or difficult was it to buy a ticket? Is there anything you would to change?
Promt 2 Rent equipment
Promt 2 Follow-Up: How easy or difficult was it to register for equipment fitting? Is there anything you would to change?
Promt 3 Find list of booking for a day
Promt 3 Follow-Up: How easy it or difficult was this task? Is there anything you would to change?
Study results
100% of users were able to pass Promt 1 & 3 without difficulties. However, 1 of the users couldn`t complete 2 Promt fast. Other said it was difficult due to the long steps between the first screen and the needed one.
Prototypes Updates
The Button “Add” was made bigger and more contrast, so users instantly will notice it. Also, the list of categories was made and now it will shorten the amount of time to find needed equipment
Quotes of participants
Well, that is really more convenient to book everything online and than try on in shop
That was hard at first to imagine where button SOS can be, but after I found it seems to me pretty logic that button SOS is on Map page
Such an app will save me a huge amount of time which now I can spend with pleasure and not in a queue
