Design Details

- Inspiration
- Act fibernet developed the act app to improve user engagement and provide a seamless digital experience. by strategically promoting new products, enhancing wi-fi analysis, and aligning with user preferences, they aim to increase engagement. comprehensive user research, including analysis of competitors like airtel helped identify areas for improvement. furthermore, a design audit, competitor analysis were conducted to inspire improvements in user engagement, ensuring a smooth experience.
- Research
- The research aims to gather user feedback on act's platform, identifying areas for improvement and enhancing satisfaction and engagement. one-on-one interviews and usability testing provided personalized insights, revealing challenges like confusion during onboarding and trust issues with payment flow.
- Challenge
- Because of time constraints, user research was unable to gather insights from a broad demographic of users representing different target audiences of act. Hence, the insights obtained were relatively limited in scope, primarily focusing on tier 1 users. At each stage of wireframes, we validated our designs with the dev team to ensure that all the designs are catering to the existing database and apis as well. There were multiple decisions taken and iterations produced to validate those as well.
- Realization and Technology
- A thorough analysis of data collected from user research interviews, competitor analysis, and design audits was conducted to prioritize features, develop user journey maps, and establish user personas. Following this, an information architecture (IA) was crafted to systematically organize and categorize content, ensuring an intuitive structure for user navigation. Wireframes were created and designs for the screens were finalized by building on a visual design language suitable for their brand.
- Operation and Interaction
- This project enhanced act's customer experience by focusing on key aspects: personalization, user control & freedom, building trust, and interaction & incentivization. It included tailoring content based on user behavior, offering seamless management of services and devices, establishing trust through security and reliable support, and increasing engagement with features like gamification and loyalty rewards.
