Experiencing any of these common UX issues in your mobile app design?

Users launch an app only to abandon it moments later

Users leave apps when they lack immediate value or feel overwhelmed. To minimize user churn, we focus on simple interfaces with straightforward value propositions, streamlined onboarding, and content displaying the app's value.

Users browse an app but seldom convert

The secret to high conversion rates is simple and smooth navigation. We design intuitive apps that guide users to conversion points with clear call-to-action designs, visual hierarchy, and minimized friction.

User numbers are dropping instead of staying steady or growing

A drop in user numbers is a sign of low engagement. We increase it with more intuitive user journeys, personalized features, gamification elements, and smart push notifications.

Sustainable food consumption eCommerce platform.

EU food regulations are very strict with product expiration dates, which has led to numerous European supermarket chains throwing out food several days early in order to be safe. Noticing this needless waste and a solid business opportunity, the Finnish food chain Fiksuruoka stepped in. Now, through the platform that Fiksuruoka created, both eco-conscious and budget-conscious shoppers have the unique possibility to order soon-to-expire food at much cheaper prices.
