Insights from User Research
Time Period Commitment Levels
Offering riders varying levels of time commitments when scheduling rides lets users trial carpool relationships and accounts for users with short term commutes.
Open Ride in Maps
Users found including a feature that opens the address address of their destination into their favorite maps app made the transition between planing and driving seamless.
Key Take Aways & Conclusions
Through this process I learned that user research is key to iterating with confidence and validating design decisions. Next steps for this project would include refining the app's features through additional testing and developing more ways to personalize user profiles and commuter preferences.
