We assessed these products using a range of criteria, including SWOT analysis, key features, user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design, value proposition, market strategy, and accomplishments. In this presentation, we have selected the top three identical applications as illustrative examples to demonstrate our competitor audit process.

Wireframing

Sketching is a powerful tool that helps visualize my ideas, communicate concepts, and bring the imagination to life.

High fidelity wireframe

By researching pain points of potential users and to provide solutions that I could visualize,
I established a preliminary blueprint

usability testing

It's time for users to test the first version of my design

I captured the essential screenshots from the whole user journey

Insights & revision

In the process of product testing, I received some suggestions and modifications from the active users, which much helped my design ideas. Want to see what I improved?
please scroll down.

Revision 01

Icon "arrow" gives the user a confusion
Using the text "Next" instead of icon "arrow"
Sign in every time makes the user feel annoying
Set a "keep signed" function
Give more contrast on the emergency call
Emergency call is not easy for the user to see

Revision 02

User can’t see who reviewed their case
Add the police officers name on  progress
Users can't send a PDF to an insurance company
Add “dots” icon to give more options to users
Emergency call is not stand out for user to see
Give more contrast on emergency call

Revision 03

Users don’t know how to get their case number
when they forget.
Add an extra line " Don't have the case number ? "
to retrieve the case number in case the user forgets.

user testing round 2

I revised my concept and conducted the second round of user testing
