Based on the brief, I designed ProdiMart with a minimalist, mobile-first approach focused on simplicity and ease of navigation. The homepage showcases curated product displays and quick access to the ProdiWallet, enabling users to store funds, track transactions, and speed up checkout.

Key design choices included a white background for clarity, a Catalina blue nav bar for contrast, and blue green CTAs to guide action subtly but effectively. Micro-interactions and smooth transitions enhance usability, making the experience intuitive and conversion-friendly

I interviewed 5 peers who shop online regularly. Their main pain points:

  1. Too many clicks just to check out.

  2. Wish I could keep some money in-app without linking my card every time.

  3. Most apps feel bulky.

Key insights I was able to compile:

  1. Speed and ease are non-negotiable.

  2. Users want minimalist UI but not at the cost of performance.

  3. Payment anxiety is real: people want clarity and control over spending.

Evaluation & User Testing

To ensure the usability and flow of ProdiMart fits the users needs, I conducted informal user testing with 7 users (18 - 25 years) who frequently shop online. I provided them with access to the app screens and a brief video walkthrough.


What I tested:

  1. Navigation flow from homepage to product checkout

  2. Clarity and visibility of the ProdiWallet feature

  3. Perceived ease of use and interface appeal


Key feedback highlights:

  1. Users found the interface clean, not overwhelming, and visually appealing

  2. The ProdiWallet feature was praised for reducing checkout friction

  3. One tester suggested that adding a product search bar upfront would improve usability

  4. Another noted that the CTA buttons could benefit from slightly more spacing on smaller screens

  5. Some confusion arose around icons in the navigation bar, which were updated for clarity.

What I Learned

This project though fictional helped sharpen my ability to balance visual design with functional UX thinking. I learned that:

  1. Users appreciate a simple layout when shopping. Too many features = instant overwhelm

  2. A digital wallet can add .real perceived value, but it needs to be prominent and intuitive.

  3. Testing early on reveals valuable insights that shape final decisions


Above all, ProdiMart taught me to design for intentional simplicity: every screen, interaction, and element should work toward making the user’s experience smoother
