Overview
Context

With the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2021, digital commerce has grown enormously, but second-hand goods are still hard to come by, and above all, the quality is not always up to standard. Thrifted trends enable users to find a wide variety of second-hand clothing, with a video of the item to be sure of its condition on receipt.

Challenge

Busy students or young parents can struggle with money to go shopping. They want good quality, cheap prices, and a secure way of buying and selling items.

Wireframing and prototyping
User Testing Insights
  • "Sell item" button not clear enough
    Users didn't understand directly what the button was for. I needed a label under to be more clear.

  • Add to favorite directly from the homepage
    Users wanted to add "like" button directly on the homepage.

Takeaways
Reflection

This project was really interesting to do, especially in terms of research. With several user testing sessions, I learned to emphasize this phase of testing and iteration, which enabled me to get into the details of the app that made it unique from the competition.
