iNaturalist App Redesign
iNaturalist is an app used to determine the species of plants and animals through photos and audio recordings, identified by other users, and features a ginormous ecosystem database.
Done with William Carty, Cara Dougherty, and Jakob Elliott.
The main task was to redesign the UX and UI of the app, but we also focused on giving it a clean, scientific, and natural design style to elevate the beautiful plants and animals.
Research Phase
Existing App
Redesign considerations included increasing gutters, implementing more user interactions, and creating a more seamless UX.
Benchmarking
Benchmarking led to conclusions like implementing a follower/following system, an explore page, a gamification/identification streak, and more
streamlined information access.
Personas
Overall, we targeted users who want to learn more about the world around them and get outside more.
Black and White Wireframes
Included a home page, explore, cataloging a find, and a profile. Implemented followers and following, communities, and an ID leaderboard.
