There are well studied benefits of setting goals in life. People, however, don’t usually feel they are making progress towards their goals or that their daily tasks have any effect on them. Often many of us have troubles staying motivated or focusing on the important.
A customizable task manager that could make noticing goal's progress easier. The ambition was to create a strong basis for different productivity needs and a possible competitor in the market.
High level goals were to:
1. Make it fun and easy to use daily for everyone.
2. Give users more control over the app’s behaviour.
Design gamified, yet meaningful content interactions in blog posts. One for ranking content, another to reward the creators. And a monetisation strategy to represent core values — straightforward, community directed.
Not just a like and not a simple share. Limited number of daily "shouts" to appreciate a content, boost its ranking and share it with others.
Limited number of monthly diamonds to endorse creators of the best content. Access to endorsement stats and another way to find content
Premium account with additional features, including endorsement and revenue sharing systems
Circumstances could've been better, but enough for practice. I experienced the importance of key UX research method – user interviews. Extensive secondary research helped me see some productivity issues or problems in productivity apps, but primary research is irreplaceable when it comes to understanding the user. Without it I might have been solving problems people didn’t actually have.
Interesting interaction and monetisation features, that could push the app forward, while supporting the future development.
Simple, but engaging website quickly made in Webflow.
