The Output

Stories

Partnering with the partner’s  UI designer and content team to develop new story-card templates to keep the content engaging.  We received ongoing feedback from our beta and user testers around content, helping shape the stories produced, and how best to display it.

 

End Actions

Through workshops and testing outputs we were able to prioritize a series of actions that a user may want to take at the conclusion of each story. 

 

CMS

Worked with content and engineering team to provide UX guidance in the CMS, to best suit content operations.

 

A fast follow for the MVP release of the app, I set up the CMS to accommodate publishing stories for multiple audiences and regions.

In October of 2018, Mobile Insights soft launched in the iOS app store, with a larger announcement made in conjunction with the partner’s rebrand in November of that year. In Q1 2019, the app was released to Institutional Investors in Hong Kong.
