CONTEXT
UI that doesn’t suit

design challenge
The current version is far behind today's possibilities of digital TV. The client has their vision and technical solution how to sort the content. And here starts our job.
ACTION: RESEARCH
Users don’t know what their TV offers
We analysed an extensive research conducted on 250,000 users and uncovered the most visited sections of the TV. Additionally, user testing showed the main issues to fix: bad focus, confusing menu, users having troubles within the player mode, channel lists and personal records being uneasy to find.
ACTION: DESIGN PROCESS
How to sort 2.5k shows into a clear UI
What are the most important features the user wants? What is a tolerable amount of information? We started with a raw structure, wireframes, continued with designing elements. It led us to the line layout vertically sorted from the key elements to the less important ones. The target product of this phase was a testable prototype.
ACTION: TESTING DESIGNS
The essential part: user testing
You don't know what you've created until you try it in real life. Our interactive Axure prototype gave people almost real experience of a TV interface.
ACTION: TESTING DESIGNS
16 Prototype iterations
32 Testers
8 Testing scenarios

Animation Tuning
Animations navigate the user through the interface. Framer helped us to refine animation principles. HTML determines feasibility limits.
IMPACT
250k customers can now find the content more easily
People will find the show they want to watch more easily and they don't have to wait for the show to find them. The TV content can be browsed through time and also through the program categories.
