Product Navigation

To design a seamless navigation experience that allows users to quickly and efficiently switch between multiple product applications on a mobile device, minimizing friction and enhancing productivity.

Target Users

Users who frequently switch between various product applications for tasks such as Document, Compliance, and Progress Daily Plans.

User Interviews

I conducted interviews with 10 users across different InEight products. Key insights included:

• Users often struggle to find and switch between apps quickly.
• Users expressed a desire for a centralized navigation hub.
• Frequent app switching leads to frustration and lost productivity.

Competitive Analysis

An analysis of similar applications revealed:

• Some apps offered basic multitasking capabilities but lacked intuitive navigation.
• Navigation menus were often cluttered or hidden, making them difficult to access.

Information Architecture

I proposed centralized navigation hubs at the main InEight mobile sign in and from within the product applications main menu, which provides quick access to all the frequently used applications.

Wireframes

I created low-fidelity wireframes showcasing:

• A main InEight mobile sign in product application navigation hub.
• Product application navigation hub accessed via the product's application main menu.

Prototyping

An interactive prototype was developed using Axure RP, demonstrating the navigation flow:

• Smooth transitions between product applications with minimal loading time.

Usability Testing

I conducted usability tests with 7 participants:

• Task Success Rate: 100% of users completed navigation tasks successfully.
• Time on Task: Users reported a 40% reduction in time spent switching between product applications.

Iterations

Based on feedback, we made adjustments:

• Single Sign-On (SSO): Eliminate having to sign in to each product application when switching between apps.

Development

I collaborated with developers to ensure the design was implemented effectively, focusing on:

• Optimizing the navigation for various screen sizes.
• Ensuring quick load times for seamless transitions.

User Adoption

• Within the first month, 75% of users adopted the new navigation system.
• Users reported a 50% increase in efficiency when accessing multiple applications.

The product navigation design for InEight mobile significantly improved users' ability to switch between product apps quickly and efficiently. The centralized hubs and intuitive design met the needs of busy product users. Future iterations will focus on integrating user feedback for continued enhancement and feature expansions.
