Challenge

Mobile learners were satisfied with content but struggled with usability. Only 55% found the app easy to use. Issues included login friction, inconsistent UI, poor content discovery, and unclear progress tracking.

Approach

Research

• Surveyed 377 users to identify pain points, and an additional 215 users to evaluate proposed designs
• Compared key learning apps like Duolingo, LinkedIn Learning, Mimo, and Coursera
• Immersed in real learner behavior to inform design decisions

Design

• Ensured AI-based assistant and learning features were easy to find and to use
• Created new navigation, learning journey, and assessment flows
• Simplified layouts and introduced a balanced, business-friendly style
• Defined color, type, and dark mode systems ready for white labeling
• Redesigned login with SSO, OTP, and QR options in one clear flow
• Established a dedicated Figma library to centralize components

Results

• More than 75% of survey respondents ranked the new design as "better" or "much better" than the old version
• Learners described the new design as "less busy", and that "it flows the way my brain thinks and processes information"
• Dark mode designs were particularly well-received, with 79% ranking these screens as "appealing" or "very appealing"; many felt dark mode was "easy on the eyes"
