2. FINAL PROJECT: HIGH FIDELITY APP DESIGN PROTOTYPE

2.1  Colour Theme and Typography

Colour Theme

After gathering feedback from the respondents regardging their comments on the app colour in Project 02: UI/UX documents, it became apparent that the use of the brand colours (Black and White) throughout the entire app interface made users feel boring and their felt that the colours are to common which other apps such as ZARA also using the same colour theme. In response to this feedback, I have maded a huge decision to adjust the colour scheme of the application.

For the new colour scheme, I opted to primarily use Pink and Beige for the app interface. The brand colours would be reserved for specific elements such as buttons, icons, and Page colour.

Typography

For the fonts, I decided to choose Crimson Text and Inter for the application. Crimson Text is for the heading and Inter for the overall content in the app. One of the reason using Crimson Text is because the fonts are similar to the Original Padini App's Logo Font, therefore I tried to use this font. Moreover, the font, Inter is one of the popular fots recomended by designers for use in application interfaces. According to some research, the font Inter's lowercase letters have aa tall x-height, which aids the readability of sentences with mixed-cased texts. This characteristic makes Inter well-suited for application interfaces, allowing information to be read quickly, with ease and clarity. 


2.2  Design Proccess

For becoming a complete High Fidelity Prototype, there is still missing elements such as colours and image. At first I though that the completion process for this high fidelityprototype would be faster compared to the low fidelity stage. However, things didn't go as planned. I soon found out that finding images also took me quite a lot of time.

Below are the images that I found to be well-suited and create a harmonious look for the Home Page in the app:

Figure 2.3  Working Process - Loading Page and Log In Page

Figure 2.4  Working Process - Applying colours and images to each frame

Figure 2.5  Working Process - User Flow of each frame


2.3  Usability Testing

Moving to the next phase, which is usability testing, which we need to show three scenarios with detailed descriptioins that required userd to perform specific actions within the application.

Task Given:

Scenario 1: Login into the Padini App and search a product
As a user, imagine you've login into the Padini App, after login, try to search one product in the search page which the product named "Harry Potter".

Scenario 2: Add a product to cart
Now, imagine you are planning to add a product to cart. Your task is to click on a product in the Catalog Page and then choose the product named "Harry Potter" and select the S size, Black colour and the number of product, and then click the "Add to Cart" button.

Scenario 3: Checkout a product
In this scenario, imagine you are planning to checkout the product from your cart. Now click on the Cart button and then choose the product you're gonna checkout. After that, it will navigate to th checkout progress.


2.4  User Feedback

For the usability testing, I have interview 3 person who have been used and not been used the Padini App before to give me feedback. I conducted the usability test through Face-to-Face and also through video call, where I shared the screen of my High Fidelity Prototype in Figma and gave my interviewee control of the screen.

The recording videos were uploaded into the Google Drive.

PADINI MOBILE APPLICATION - High Fidelity Usability Testing
Summary of feedback based on user feedback:
  • The prototype looks trendy than the original Padini Mobile App.
  • The colours of the protoypes look interesting and new.
  • The layout and interface of the prototype are clear and smooth.

2.5  Improvement Made

Based on the user feedback, I noticed that their review are quite good then I stop to made improvements.
