Defining Problem
Traveling is very fun, we can see something new and can feel beautiful impressions, but do you realize various tourist attractions have different weather and temperatures that can affect the health and fitness levels of travelers who have just visited that destination.
In new places, travelers have very little knowledge of geographical conditions, weather, and temperature, so they have difficulty adjusting.
Why did they fail to adapt to the weather at their destination?
Many travelers are only looking for tourist destinations without paying attention to adjustments to various weather conditions where they visit.
They also don’t know the description of the conditions they will face and to find this information they need to do research which takes a lot of time and is not effective, so the traveler lacks the motivation to prepare everything important and crucial to create a fit and healthy traveler during the trip. Don’t miss a minute of fun!
Current Solution
I’m trying to understand in depth why the apps available now haven’t solved the problem and the idea of an app that helps travelers isn’t new when I open the play store, I find dozens of apps that help travelers plan their trips.
Competitive research
- Most only focus on preparing the itinerary without any item recommendations and financial plans during the trip
- A trip planner that only features the trip duration of the traveler
- Popular destination recommendations without giving an overview of the conditions that are there.
- There is no community, so there is no place for travelers to share experiences with each other’s dos & don’ts or something else.
Purposed Solutions
How can my solution answer the problem
The first and most important thing to do is improve the user experience, i.e., replace all the negative things from the existing app and add a solution to my design.
User flow is the best friend when designing a website or app to complete a task. This helps me determine how many screens I need, the order in which they should be displayed, and what components should be present.
Taking Small Steps Approach
A very complex application turns out to be easy to use with the simpler UI, to create a UI very simple, the need is to follow every step irrespective of the time.
- Wireframe
Wireframes always help me figure out what exactly I want on my canvas. It helps me connect the site’s information architecture to its visual design by showing paths between pages and Clarifying consistent ways for displaying particular types of information on the user interface.
Visual Design
Yeah, almost at the very end, which is making it visible to our eyes. Complete a visual design as well as prepare for a descriptive journey through this design experience.
What I want to convey in this application is something that is simpler and doesn’t go through many confusing steps. I think to always remember a few things:
- Easy to use and does not make the user overwhelming
- clean
- minimal text
I created a very goal-oriented design and had a UX that could make it stand out from the hundreds of apps already available on the play store, after several iterations I was able to sculpt this design.
Key Results
Thank you for taking the time to see and understand my design process. From my experience, when technology is used correctly it will help in achieving goals and goal kits, as well as UX that makes it easy for users, and pleasant UI will make it even better.
There is still much more that needs to be explored in more depth to improve the results and given a limited time, I only created a few screens, so the new aspect is understanding the most important aspects of the complete design.
Little time for user research and no in-depth knowledge of human behavior when traveling, and the details are quite hard to find and take up my limited time.
No user testing done yet, makes me worry about the results and I wish I had more time.
