The Problem

The initial onboarding process for the app was extremely basic, only consisting of sign-in screens with no additional guidance for users. The app lacked an introduction to its key features, and the sign-in page was disorganized, leading to user confusion.

To enhance the signup process for users, I created a user flow that includes an "Explore the App" page as the final step. This addition confirms the completion of the onboarding process and provides a clear entry point into the main app experience.

I developed wireframes for the new onboarding process, including the separated sign-in pages, interactive feature introduction screens, and the preference-setting feature.

Design System

To achieve visual unity, I helped confirm the design system foundation, basic colors and fonts, icons, buttons, etc.

What I will do different

Fynspo's main target group is young women who love shopping. Due to time constraints and limited access to user groups, however, if time permits, I will conduct one-on-one interviews with customers, user testing on prototypes, and observe how users go through the process. Are there any steps I haven't thought of without adding more burden to the user? How can I improve the design to make the onboarding process?

What I can do next

What else the issue i found

Early in the app's development, users struggled to find certain features, particularly saved items.

Why

During the redesign process, I identified that saved items were not intuitively placed on the dashboard, causing confusion for users.

People associate personal accounts with personalization and private data management, and "saved items" is one of them.

It separates browsing from managing saved items, reducing cognitive load.

Users often switch between exploring and reviewing saved items.

Major platforms like Amazon and Zara use this approach.

It matches users' experiences across various e-commerce platforms.

Treating "Terms" and "EULA" as prominent CTA buttons on the main profile page isn't ideal. Why
These are rarely clicked and don't need high visibility. They can distract from core profile actions like editing preferences or viewing order history.

Unlike "Submit Order" or "Save Settings," legal terms don't prompt immediate user action. They're informational, not interactive.

CTAs should guide users to high-priority actions. Legal information is better suited as subtle links or in an overlay, not as eye-catching buttons.

Given these factors, placing "saved items" within the user profile or a dedicated "favorites" section would likely improve user experience and align with expectations.

Implementation:

To validate the decision, I created a key wireframes:

Before: Saved items were located on the dashboard’s home tab alongside categories like "Collections" and "For You." Informational links such as "Terms" and "EULA" were prominent CTA buttons.

After: Saved items were moved under the profile page for a more cohesive experience. The "Terms" and "EULA" links were demoted to text links at the bottom, while actionable buttons like "Edit Preferences" and "Past Orders" took priority.

Expecting outcome:

These changes enhance usability by placing saved items in an intuitive location, streamlining the profile page's visual hierarchy, and clearly separating exploration and personalization functions.
