Main task
The main goal of the project is to do a complete redesign and develop applications from
scratch
for the existing coach operator. Customers came with a request to update the Ecolines
and
Autolux applications. The apps had an outdated UI as of 2023 and contained a lot of
technical
debt from the mobile development side.
Due to outdated technology, users reported a large number
of existing bugs. Therefore, the team faced updating moder
n applications with working functionality.
Development
Since we had the task to update the applications, firstly we needed to understand all the
functionality with which we will work. For this, our designer developed a Functional Map
of the application, where he depicted all the main flows and sections. Then this map was
agreed upon with the clients and the designer was able to start working on the
UI/UX.
We already worked with an existing backend part provided to us by clients. Therefore,
from the side of the mobile developer, the task was to research the existing backend
part and compile the API documentation.
The most interesting thing in this case is that the design and development were carried
out simultaneously, in two parallel processes. After approval of one part of the
screens, the developer took them to work, while the designer began the next part.
Visual style
We used the customer’s ready-made design system, adapting it to the needs of developing mobile apps for 2 systems: iOS and Android.
The variability of the system’s colors and shades is determined by the percentage of transparency in the basic colors, which gives the design system flexibility and versatility. We chose the basic font Geometric Euclid Circular A from Swiss Typefaces. The font has non-standard shapes, but it remains readable and understandable. So, the typography in the product is original and clean.

of bug

launch
without losses on the business side.
