What we started with
The initial minutes of a user's experience with an application are pivotal to its success, as they set the tone for future engagement and satisfaction. Understanding this critical aspect, our team dedicated significant effort to ensure these first moments are impactful and positive.
We meticulously crafted the user journey within the Apollo Scooters application, focusing on a seamless and intuitive sign-up and introduction process. This approach was designed to guide users smoothly through their initial interactions, fostering a positive and lasting impression of the application.
Initial design process
Before incorporating any branding or stylistic elements, we start with wireframing, an essential conceptual stage concentrating on primary functions and user interaction. The design of the application encompasses a range of menus. Among these menus, the most critical are the statistics, vehicle status, online store, and profile settings. These menus form the backbone of the app, providing essential services and user engagement points.
User onboarding
The account sign-up screen is the first interface encountered by new users. We unanimously chose a minimalist design for this tab, focusing on simplicity and avoiding unnecessary elements. The aesthetic charm was significantly enhanced by incorporating high-quality, 3D-rendered background imagery.
User-friendly pairing
Our team focused on creating an intuitive pairing experience, featuring clear menus, instructional videos, and some innovative functionalities. One such feature allows users to assign unique names to their scooters, a particularly useful option for those owning multiple vehicles.
