Bridging the Gap: The Impact of Product Testing on User Experience

Hey there!

We wanted to share some exciting insights from our travel app escapades ?? ??

Our very own PO, Octavio Mu?oz , had the incredible chance to dive into the world of travel and discovery in Kauai, Hawaii, with Revealed Travel Guides/ Hawaii Revealed while cooking up magic in our app kitchen!

?? Here are a few pearls of wisdom that surfaced while riding the app wave:

--> You know what's cool? Realizing the difference between using our app as a tech wizard and diving into it as a user. There's this awesome dual perspective – one where you build a product, and the other where you live it!

--> We discovered something wild: users come in two flavors! We've got the super planners and the spontaneous souls. Each tribe brings a different flavor to the adventure, and embracing both sides leads to golden insights.

--> Ever thought about Google Maps or Waze when hitting "Take me there"? Turns out, integrating these buddies can make the navigation journey even smoother. After all, we've got our navigation habits, right?

--> You know what's cooler than searching by titles? Searching by content! It's like finding that secret treasure chest of experiences you've been dreaming of.

--> Say hello to organized chaos with favorites! Think folders, filters, and sorting – the kind of magical trio that lets you find your faves in a snap.

?? But wait, there's more!

We've even set our sights on a driving tour adventure, for an augmented product we are about to lunch:

--> Imagine choosing between freestyle road trips and guided tours. Yup, there's something for everyone! Some love the thrill of exploring, while others fancy a guided path. Let's cater to both!

--> Oh, and background functionality? It's like turning up the volume on your adventure playlist while getting those audio cues. Seamless driving vibes?

--> No more lost in translation moments! Clear markers or notifications when things go off-road.

--> When navigation gets fancy, everyone's a happy camper. Imagine having markers that actually tell you where you are.

--> The competition's taught us a trick or two. Core functionalities are a must, but we're jazzing it up with our unique spark to stand out.

Our recomendation: Trying your product to grasp the genuine need is not merely stepping into the user's shoes; it's about living and comprehending the authentic necessity to take the user experience to the next level ??
