MateWeb & Mobile App
Web and mobile app that allows users to split bills with just one click.
About
We worked on a startup with a cool idea — an app designed to help people effortlessly split bills and make payments in restaurants. As developers, we were involved from the early stages, contributing to the development of various functions and the overall UX/UI design.
FinTech solutions are more entertaining than ever.
The main concept is that when a user gets a bill from the bar, they have the option to share it with friends, ensuring that everyone pays for what they specifically ordered. We’ve developed an easy-to-use contact list feature that lets users quickly add the right people to the bill.
Track all your order history in one app.
Although the structure is intricate, we’ve designed a unique experience that allows users to find whatever they need with just a few clicks. Friends, balance, history, and locations are all easily accessible.
App Design Process
Designing an app means creating a digital experience that feels intuitive and looks stunning. This is where creativity falls in love with functionality to deliver a product people will love.
Research
We open an app design process by going deep into what the app should achieve, and that involves knowing who the target audience is, the problem it solves, and what the general goals of the project are. Analyzing the needs of users and market trends brings us valuable insights to be led through the UX design process so that the end product is relevant and friendly to use.
Information Architecture (IA)
Structuring of Content and Features arrives immediately after research. At this stage, a blueprint of an app’s layout is created, considering how the information is structured and how a user will navigate the app. This element provides a logical flow that would improve the user experience (UX) so the app can be friendly right from the start.
Wireframes
With this structure in mind, we create wireframes that lay out a user interface (UI) for the app. These are really just skeletal blueprints of where elements will live and how users will interact with them. Wireframing allows us to see how the app will flow and if the app design is sharp before getting into all the details.
Prototypes
Prototyping takes the wireframes one step ahead by adding interactivity. This is where an app really comes alive, letting us test the app design and adjust per real feedback. Prototypes are essential in scrubbing out any hiccups that might pop up during development so that we can have a finished product that is both functional and pleasing to use.
Launch
Refine the app design, then take feedback and get ready for the launch of the app. This step involves finalizing the app design and ensuring it’s perfect implementation in development. Give users an excellent-looking, smoothly functioning app, and they will love it.
