App Loading Redesign
CIBC | Lead UX Designer
Improved the App loading experience by replacing the native loader with a customized animation.
Design Challenges
-
Explore, design & release within 30 days
-
Meet the accessibility requirements
Design process
-
Collect feedback with Internal testings: how fast/slow do users feel? Do they think it's more secure than before? did the accessibility users feel comfortable with/without the label?
-
Improve design with real user feedback: after release, we received users' feedback the App became slower. After investigating, we realized it's a recognition result by design. We adjusted the animation speed to solve it.
The coded animation was created by Yung Dai

Chatbot was a great feature to make our mobile banking App more intelligent on customer supporting. To design a chatbot, we should have a deep understanding of all transaction flows & the capability of conversational AI.
