Mobile app notifications for business meetings

Annoying notification is one of the top reasons why people uninstall mobile apps, so the notification designers have to be very careful while designing their behavior. At first the app should ask users as to when they would like to be reminded about the meetings, because the user behavior  vary; some people might want to be reminded a day before and also 30 minutes before the meeting starts as they might have to prepare for the meeting; and some people might be just ready to jump into the meeting without any delay so they would want to set the reminder to 5 minutes. So, let the user set time to receive a notification. Once the notification is on screen; the user should be able to dismiss it or open the meetings app - this feature can be used with the slide option.

The importance of usability testing in design process

Usability testing is a crucial and integral part of the design process, regardless of whether you're designing a physical product, a digital application, a website, or any other user-centric solution. It involves observing real users as they interact with your design prototype or product to evaluate its usability, identify potential issues, and gather valuable feedback. Here are some key reasons why usability testing is of utmost importance in the design process: 1. User-Centered Design: Usability testing places the user at the center of the design process. By involving actual users, you gain insights into how real people interact with your design, which helps you create solutions that cater to their needs, preferences, and behaviors. 2. Identifying Pain Points: Usability testing helps you uncover usability issues and pain points that might not be apparent during the design phase. Users might struggle with navigation, encounter confusing interfaces, or face difficulties in comple...
