Comparison of old and new app design

In anticipation of potential negative feedback, we planned to introduce the new design gradually to our change-resistant user base. Instead of a big bang rollout, we opted for implementing small, incremental updates over time, allowing users to adapt more comfortably and ensuring a smoother transition to the new design.

Evolution instead of revolution.

The new designs sparked a completely new app strategy, but due to technological limitations, building on the existing app wasn’t feasible. Instead, the designs now form the foundation for a brand-new app, currently in development, utilizing Up’s technology.
