Coupons, loyalty, QR, fuel, rewards — all already there.

We turned a collection of features into one clear product experience

What was getting
in the way?

I reviewed the existing product to understand why a feature-rich app still felt difficult to navigate and easy to leave.

too many competing

entry points

key actions were

features felt like

separate experiences

Key findings
01

Too many features competed for attention.

Important actions such as coupons and QR did not stand out clearly from the rest of the interface.

02

Users had options, but no obvious place to start.

The product offered a lot of functionality, while the interface gave little guidance on what mattered most at each moment.

03

The value was there — but it wasn’t visible enough.

Loyalty, rewards and other engagement features existed, but their benefits were not communicated clearly enough.

E-com App
Redesign goals

Make the value obvious. Make the experience intuitive enough to use — and strong enough to return to.

Build the experience around four simple principles.

01 Make the benefits obvious at first glance.
02 Make every next step easy to understand.
03 Connect features into a consistent experience.
04 Make the product worth returning to.

Overview

A mobile app for active crypto traders — combining wallet, market analytics, and trading in one product. The core challenge wasn't visual: it was structural. Three distinct mental models had to coexist without creating friction between them.

Problem

Active trading happens under time pressure. In the existing flow, a user checking their balance, spotting a movement, and executing a trade had to navigate across three disconnected sections — each with its own logic. Every context switch added cognitive overhead at exactly the moment it was most costly.

The key insight: the interface treated wallet, market, and trading as separate tools rather than stages of a single workflow.

Before opening Figma, I spent time understanding how active traders actually behave. I interviewed five users — a mix of day traders and occasional investors — and the pattern was consistent: everyone described the same moment of friction. You see a price move, you check your balance, you navigate to the asset, and by the time you get to the Buy button, the window might already be closing.

I also ran a competitive analysis across Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken — not to copy their patterns, but to understand where they force the same context-switching problem and where they don't. What became clear is that most trading apps are designed around features, not around the sequence of decisions a trader actually makes.

That reframe — from features to decision flow — became the foundation for the architecture.

Design Direction

Home screen as situational awareness. Balance, top movers, and market news in a single scroll — so users can orient themselves without leaving the starting point.

Market screen starts with the macro picture. Dominance metrics and total capitalisation sit above the asset list, giving context before the user drills into a specific coin.

Asset view with persistent actions. Buy and Sell are always visible regardless of scroll position. On a volatile chart, making a trade button a scroll target is a UX liability.
