USER RESEARCH
WIREFRAME TESTING
APP
“A pain to keep track of who has paid for what. We need to work out who owes who how much”
“Current bill management is not efficient”
“burying my head in the sand about how much energy we're using until the bill comes”
User testing POP app prototype
SPLIT
Aids the bill splitting in a shared home scenario.
It shows the break down of utility bills and when paired with 02 energy saving plugs the app shows energy consumption per device.
Shop receipt’s can be photographed to assign payees with bought items. The invoice is then automatically calculated.
User testing improved user interaction by identifying ambiguities in the interface resulting in a more intuitive and streamlined app sitemap
