I was brought into the project to support a UX/UI designer from our client, Worksite Labs, who was leading the design efforts for their online registration system. However, the proposed design approach was steering the project in the wrong direction, with critical user experience issues being overlooked.
Recognizing the potential risks, I needed to act quickly to identify and address the flaws in the current user path. This required a combination of analytical thinking and hands-on design work to clearly articulate the problems and propose a viable solution.
By switching to a button-based visual language everywhere possible, I successfully minimized scrolling, improved visual hierarchy, enabled faster decision making, reduced confusion and time spend by users by 70%.
The solution was validated using TryMyUI to test both user paths—old vs. new—with a sample size of 6 users for each flow. The results were conclusive, showing clear trends in user behavior.
