Sonariq - Podcast App UI UX | Mobile App | Case Study
Saiful Islam Shakin
Overview
Sonariq is a next-generation podcast app designed to simplify how people create, share, and listen to audio. This case study explores the end-to-end design process from research and branding to UI/UX development.
The Problem
Podcast creators struggle with fragmented publishing tools, while listeners deal with cluttered interfaces that make discovery frustrating. There was no single platform that served both sides well.
The Process
The project followed a full design roadmap: user research, persona development, user journey mapping, wireframing, visual design, and branding. We built user personas highlighting goals for both creators and listeners, mapped each step of interaction through journey flows, and defined the typography and color palette to shape the brand.
Key Features
Onboarding flow with personalized topic selection
Smart search with filters and personalized results
Explore screen for discovering creators and curated content
Podcast detail screens with episode lists and sharing options
Creator tools redesign based on problem/solution research
Results
The design drove improvements in user engagement, retention, and feature adoption. Branding extended across multiple platforms including a landing page, physical products, and signage.
