Throughout my time using the app I have noticed some issues with the interface that affect the overall experience, and so I began my research into areas where MyFitnessPal could add real user value and improve the overall user experience. It should be an app which also needs a redesign, and redesign at least one screen to show your interface design skills.īoasting over 170 million users, MyFitnessPal simply has to be doing something right! While MyFitnessPal is something I have been using on a daily basis for over 4 years, and generally have no major issues with throughout my usage, that is not to say that it is perfect.Pick an app that you use already, and identify a process, flow or feature you think could be improved upon and add real user value to show your user experience skills.For this exercise we’d like you to do just that.

For me, the MyFitnessPal app has been instrumental in my ongoing health and fitness journey.
The main problem being that most people just don’t know where to start. However, it is immediately evident from a simple browse online or glance at a supermarket bookshelf that diet and exercise remain to be something at the forefront of most people’s mind. With today’s modern and hectic lifestyle, health and fitness often take a backseat to the rigors of everyday life.
