The problem

Research showed people searched journeys by known stops rather than where they actually wanted to go, missing better routes and alternatives, especially during disruptions.

My role

One of three ustwo designers in the app team. UI design for iOS and Android, icon design, prototyping and user testing.

Approach

We steered users to enter their destination instead, then surfaced the best options by travel time, transport mode and walking distance. Saved journeys let users get home in one tap, supported by a family of favorite and UI icons I designed.

Learnings

The whole team, designers, developers, architects, QA, PO, sat together near the central station, so we could walk out and test mockups with real travelers on the spot. An accessibility workshop, traveling as a visually impaired user, drove home how much physical and digital cues matter.
