Building the new U.S. Bank flagship consumer app experience

Background

overview

What does it mean to completely overhaul one of America’s biggest banks’ mobile app experience? U.S. Bank had a 3-year digital transformation goal. I was one of the 12 designers for making this goal a reality. I was a key player in the direction for both the MVP release (launched mid-2019) and for the vision work planned to be incrementally released over the next several years.

Key output and milestones:

  • A key designer in planning and shaping the completely re-designed customer mobile app
  • UX/UI: Lofi to HiFi design across key features
  • Design execution for both short-term (MVP) and long-term (VISION)
  • App icon: Concepted and delivered the app icon and feature screenshots for stores
  • Illustration/Content design: Produced illustrations, and procured photography
  • Interactive motion design: Experimentation, feasibility alignment and execution
  • Usability testing: Moderated, unmoderated, A/B
  • Diligent usability/A11y compliant design practices to achieve WCAG 2.1 AA
  • Presentation design in Keynote
  • Presenting to senior executives, key stakeholders and up to hundreds of people on sprint

Tools & methods:

  • SAFe, Agile Scrum, Jira, Confluence, Sketch, Invision, Principle, Keynote, Adobe CC

Contributions

  • UX/UI

    Worked on various key features for account-related journey's and destinations. Approached delivery in Agile Scrum. 0 to 1 delivery starting with LOFI and landing at HIFI screens and prototypes.

  • content

    Producing content to support the UX/UI across a variety of subject matter and media: Vector illustrations, copy, photography and micro animations.

  • diagramming & a11y

    Developed comprehensive flow diagrams to illustrate user journeys and ensure accessibility compliance (A11y). The diagram visualizes the step-by-step enrollment process, highlighting key interaction points and accessibility features to enhance the user experience for all users.

  • usability testing

    Conducted extensive usability testing to evaluate and improve user navigation flows. Developed detailed test flows for key actions to ensure intuitive user interactions and identify potential usability issues.
