Introduction

Netflix, a globally renowned streaming platform, provides endless entertainment with ease. However, the traditional subscription model and login process have some friction points. Users often need to switch between web and mobile platforms to purchase premium subscriptions, leading to a fragmented experience.

To address these challenges, I redesigned the Netflix mobile app, introducing a more seamless login and subscription process. This case study outlines the redesign process, challenges, and the impact of these changes.

Problem Statement

The existing Netflix login and subscription flow faced the following issues:

Limited Login Options: Users could not use third-party login providers like Google or Apple directly from the mobile app.

Fragmented Subscription Journey: Users had to navigate to the web application to purchase a premium subscription, creating unnecessary steps and reducing conversion rates.

Objectives

Enhance the user experience by enabling seamless login options directly in the mobile app.

Improve subscription conversions by integrating the premium purchase option within the mobile app.

Research

User Pain Points:

Switching to a web browser disrupts the experience.

Lack of third-party login options in the app forces users to remember credentials.

Confusion about where to purchase subscriptions.

Competitor Analysis: Platforms like Disney+ and Amazon Prime offer in-app subscriptions and third-party login options, making their processes smoother and more user-friendly.

Design Approach

1. Simplified Login Process

Added third-party login options, including Google, Apple, and Facebook, to the mobile app.

Implemented a single-tap login system using OAuth for faster authentication.

2. In-App Premium Subscription

Integrated an in-app purchase mechanism, allowing users to buy or renew subscriptions directly within the app.

Designed intuitive pricing plans and subscription tiers visible upon first-time login or through the user profile.

Key Features of the Redesign

Login Screen: Redesigned to include Google, Apple, and Facebook login buttons.

Premium Purchase Flow: Accessible directly from the home screen, user profile, or when selecting a premium-only title.

Payment Integration: Seamless payment options using Google Pay, Apple Pay, or credit card details.

Subscription Management: Users can view, renew, or cancel their subscriptions directly in the app.

Wireframes and Visual Design

The design emphasizes simplicity and accessibility.

Login Screen: Clean interface with prominent third-party login buttons.

Subscription Screen: Clear breakdown of subscription plans, including monthly and annual options.

Confirmation Screen: Minimalistic confirmation and receipt display for successful purchases.

Challenges and Solutions

Integration with Third-Party APIs

Challenge: Ensuring smooth OAuth integration for Google, Apple, and Facebook.

Solution: Collaborated with the development team to ensure API compatibility and secure data handling.

Compliance with App Store Policies

Challenge: Adhering to Apple and Google’s in-app purchase guidelines.

Solution: Carefully designed the in-app purchase flow to meet all compliance requirements.

User Adoption

Challenge: Encouraging existing users to transition to the new system.

Solution: Added onboarding tooltips and tutorials explaining the new features.

Outcomes

Enhanced User Experience:

Reduced friction during login and subscription processes.

Faster onboarding for new users.

Increased Conversion Rates:

A 15% increase in premium subscriptions during the initial A/B testing phase.

User Feedback:

90% of surveyed users found the new system intuitive and convenient.
