description

Slides from my 1 hour live streaming class on March 14th at GA in New York ABSTRACT The rise in mobiles and tablets have changed the way we consume and interact with content, but also the way we design and what we base our design approach on. This class will teach you about the shift in user expectations, behaviour- and consumption patterns and what that means for designing products that will be used on multiple devices. Coming out of it you'll be equipped with guiding principles and tools to tackle the multiple device jungle.

BUT WHY?” Today's popular devices are

device is better than building something which works on

WHAT THEY ARE AFTER (E.G. IN SEARCH)

MOSTLY DIRECT TRAFFIC POSSIBLE ARGUMENT FOR APPMOSTLY VIA SHARED LINKS MOBILE WEB PRESENCE NEEDED. AN APP ALONE WON’T CUT ITA BIT OF BOTH THEN CONSIDER....

MOBILE PRESENCE vs. APP?USE ANALYTICS FOR GUIDANCE

WHETHER TO DO AN APP OR NOT COMES DOWN TO...• THE OBJECTIVE (USER & BUSINESS)

• IF THERE ARE SPECIFIC DEVICE CAPABILITIES YOU WANT TO UTILISE

• IF OFFLINE READING/USAGE IS REQUIRED

• & OF COURSE BUDGET

Page 35: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

DIFFERENT TYPES OF APPSTHE MAIN TWO TYPES

NATIVE APPS (e.g. Instagram)

• MOST OPTIMISED USER EXPERIENCE• ACCESS TO DEVICE CAPABILITIES & APIs• BUT REQUIRES PLATFORM SPECIFIC CODE BASE

HYBRID (e.g. first Facebook app)

• USE OF HTML5 & JAVASRIPT• WRAPPER TO PROVIDE NATIVE CAPABILITIES• FEWER “VERSIONS” TO MAINTAIN• BUT CAN BE TIME CONSUMING TO CREATE APP LIKE INTERACTIONS• CAN'T JUST BE WRAPPED. MUST HAVE APP LIKE FUNCTIONALITIES

BASIC iOS NAVIGATIONCONSISTENT ACROSS VERSIONS

NAVIGATION BAREnables navigation through the app hierarchy. Holds the back button, controls for managing screen content & the title of the screen.

BACK BUTTONShould always take the user one step back from where they came from & be descriptive.

TAB BARCan often be customised. Holds the main sections of the app.

‘MORE’ TAB BAR ITEMUsed to hold & provide access to all other sections of the app that don’t fit in the tab bar.

ANDROID NAVIGATIONDIFFERENT BETWEEN VERSIONS. IN ICE CREAM SANDWICH:

NAVIGATION BARFor devices that don't have the hardware keys. Holds 'Back', 'Home' and 'Recents'

ACTION BARHolds the most important action buttons for your app (3 + overflow menu)

UP VS. BACK BUTTONThe Up button is used to navigate up one level based on the hierarchical structure of the site.

Back is used to navigate back one step from where you came from & as such works in reverse chronological order.

BESPOKE MOBILE SITE vs RESPONSIVE vs AN APPCONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:A big retail store has asked you to come up with a Easter Hunt across your city where offers and give aways are hidden at certain locations. There will only be a certain number of items available each day & they want to be able to notify people when an item has been found, or when a user is close to one.

What do you recommend in terms of their mobile strategy and why? I.e. an app, responsive or bespoke mobile site, or a combination?

10 MINUTES

EXERCISE ONE

Page 62: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

www.flickr.com/photos/jojoneil/6359536591

THINGS TO CONSIDERHOW WOULD MOST PEOPLE ACCESS IT?

• DIRECT TRAFFIC vs. SHARED LINKS

WHAT DO YOU NEED IT TO DO?

• ARE THERE SPECIFIC DEVICE CAPABILITIES YOU WANT TO UTILISE

• IS OFFLINE READING/USAGE IS REQUIRED

WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES & PRACTICALITIES?

• THE BUDGET

• THE CURRENT TECHNICAL PLATFORM THAT THE RETAILER IS ON

• COULD AN APP BE RE-USED FOR ANOTHER CAMPAIGN LATER

• THE MARKETING VALUE OF HAVING AN APP

EXERCISE ONE

Page 63: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

www.flickr.com/photos/jojoneil/6359536591

BUILDING A RESPONSIVE SITEFOR THE EASTER HUNT SITE THE CLIENT WANT TO INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

• About page• List of offers• Product pages• Notifications

PART 1

Pick either mobile or desktop & do a rough sketch of what the home page should contain & how the content should be prioritised.

PART 2

Using content stacking methodology define how the content should be prioritised on desktop & mobile.

15 MINUTES

EXERCISE TWO

• Share (on FB & Twitter)• Login & registration• Overview of number of found & not found item

Page 64: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

www.flickr.com/photos/jojoneil/6359536591

THINGS TO CONSIDEREXPECTATION OF AN EQUAL & CONTINUOUS JOURNEY ACROSS DEVICES

• MOBILE & DESKTOP USE CASES ARE MERGING

KEEPING THE CORE CONTENT THE SAME

• OPTIMISE THE DISPLAY & INTERACTIONS TO THE DEVICE

• IF IT DOESN’T BELONG ON MOBILE DOES IT BELONG ON DESKTOP

THE HIERARCHY OF MODULES

• PRIORITISE & CONSIDER EACH PIECE OF CONTENT

• WORK WITH PEN & PAPER

• DEFINE RULES FOR HOW HORISONTAL MODULES ARE DISPLAYED VERTICALLY ON SMALLER SCREENS

EXERCISE TWO

Page 65: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

www.flickr.com/photos/jojoneil/6359536591

BUILDING AN APPBASED ON THE CONTENT & FUNCTIONALITY REQUIREMENTS CONSIDER WHAT WOULD BE SUITABLE FOR AN APP:

• About page• List of offers• Product pages• Notifications

PART 1

Define the main sections your app would have.

PART 2

Looking at the navigation how would you structure this if you were to do an iOS app & an Android app? Focus on the Tab bar items respectively Action bar items & what would go in the ‘More’ respectively ‘Overflow menu’.

15 MINUTES

EXERCISE THREE

• Share (on FB & Twitter)• Login & registration• Overview of number of found & not found item

Page 66: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

www.flickr.com/photos/jojoneil/6359536591

THINGS TO CONSIDERAPPS ARE FOCUSED

• CONTENT OFTEN DIFFERS BETWEEN APPS & MOBILE OPTIMISED SITES

• EACH SECTION SHOULD HAVE A CLEAR PURPOSE & USE CASE

THE NUMBER OF ITEMS YOU CAN FIT VARIES BETWEEN ANDROID & iOS

• BASE ORDER & POSITIONING OF SECTIONS ON IMPORTANCE & ACCESS FREQUENCY

• TAB BAR ITEMS & ACTION BUTTONS AREN’T THE ONLY WAY FOR A USER TO NAVIGATE

PROVIDE VALUE FROM THE FIRST SCREEN

• AVOID USING THE FIRST SCREEN AS A STEPPING STONE BUT BRING THE USER RIGHT INTO CONTENT

EXERCISE THREE

DEVICE USAGE & PATTERNSFUTURE DEVICESThe number of different devices will only grow & we don’t know what’s coming.USED EVERYWHERE & ANYWHERE And we’re not only using them on the go but increasingly when we have some downtime including the sofa.USE OF MOBILE DEVICESOur use of mobile devices is increasingly replicating that of desktop.

IMPLICATIONS FOR UX & DESIGN THINKINGAN EQUAL & CONTINUOUS EXPERIENCE ACROSS DEVICESAs they & the services we use become more sophisticated & optimised we expect more from them.KEEP THE CORE BUT OPTIMISEConsider the limitations but also the opportunities with mobile devices.

WHEN DO WHATBESPOKE MOBILE WEBSITETry to avoid it but do it if necessaryRESPONSIVE DESIGNThe most device & future “proof ” approach right now. Use if possible. But challenge content delivery.APPBase on user & business needs. Strong argument if you require offline reading/functionality & access to device capabilities. Base which type on objectives & stats.

Page 71: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

FOR RESPONSIVEDEFINE YOUR GRID & BREAKPOINTSThis is the backbone of responsive design & content choreography.DON’T FORGET THE NAVIGATIONConsider the pros & cons of different methods.TEST & COLLABORATEThis is new grounds & we’re all learning so work together & test as you go.

Page 72: Live streaming: Designing For Multiple Devices - GA, New York, 14 March 2013

FOR APPSREMEMBER PLATFORM SPECIFIC GUIDELINESAdhering to them will make your app easier to use.CONSIDER BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITYNot everyone will be on the latest version. Ensure you cater for the majority.CONSULT THE INTERNETThere are a number of great resources for knowledge & inspiration. Use them.

“ We’re not just making pretty interfaces. We’re actually in the process of making an environment where we’ll spend most of our time, for the rest of our lives. We’re the designers. We’re the builders. What do we want that environment to feel like? What do we want to feel like.
