How can you use UED tools to create a consistent user experience?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

User experience (UX) is the overall impression and satisfaction that a user has when interacting with a software product. It depends on many factors, such as usability, functionality, aesthetics, accessibility, and feedback. To create a consistent UX, you need to apply user experience design (UED) principles and practices throughout the software development process. UED tools are software applications that help you design, prototype, test, and evaluate your UX. In this article, you will learn how to use some of the most common UED tools to create a consistent UX for your software product.

1 Sketching tools

Sketching tools are simple and fast ways to generate and communicate your initial ideas for the UX. You can use paper and pencil, whiteboards, or digital sketching apps to draw the layout, navigation, and features of your software product. Sketching tools help you to explore different possibilities, identify potential problems, and get feedback from users and stakeholders. You can use sketching tools to create low-fidelity prototypes that show the basic structure and functionality of your UX.

What works great for mobile apps sketching is Figma, or if you want it to be a bit easier, perhaps Canva will also do the job. With digital tools you can easily visualize what you plan in your mind.

2 Wireframing tools

Wireframing tools are more advanced and detailed than sketching tools. They allow you to create high-fidelity prototypes that show the exact appearance and behavior of your UX. You can use wireframing tools to define the elements, colors, fonts, icons, and interactions of your software product. Wireframing tools help you to refine your design, test your assumptions, and validate your solutions. You can use wireframing tools to create realistic mockups that simulate the final UX.

Personally, I am not a big fan of creating paper prototype first and testing them with the user before putting anything in Figma although paper prototype can be super efficient sometimes. I think besides interacting with forms, we also interact with color, information etc. Therefore, creating a low-fi wireframe on the screen can be cost efficient and more effective as it provides almost 60%-80% of the actual experience. Nevertheless, the choice depends on the situation and the scope of the project.

Using tools help with optimal UXD and it is important that your toolset not becomes your hurdle. Once a UXD guru told me an experienced designer would be able to identify 5 top experience issues within a matter of minutes to an hour in a design; so it does make sense to tap into that resource before you go full out with more time and money consuming tests supported by tools. In the times of GenZ, dynamically changing content types and consuming behaviors, we also need to renew/update our understanding of information architecture in our solutions. Specifically, a transition to more visual and AI generated alternatives need to be incorporated into the design work.
