Alokozay Shop, a prominent online grocery retailer in the UAE, recognized the need to enhance its mobile app to maintain its competitive edge and cater to its growing mobile user base. The project aimed to modernize the app's design and user experience, aligning with current market trends and ultimately driving increased online sales.
Collaborating with another designer, my role focused on improving key aspects of the Alokozay Shop mobile experience. I conducted thorough market and competitive research to identify relevant e-commerce trends. My design responsibilities included modernizing the interface and design system while maintaining brand consistency, refining checkout, order management, and profile sections, and introducing a robust user profile feature. I also focused on interaction design, ensuring a simplified, dynamic, and user-friendly experience.
The Challenge
Uninspiring Interactions
The app felt flat and outdated, lacking engaging animations or dynamic elements that could make the shopping experience feel more modern and polished

Dated Visual Design
The UI felt stuck in the early 2010s, needing a refreshed, contemporary look to stay competitive and appealing to users

Basic Unrefined User Flows
While functional, key flows like checkout and order management lacked efficiency and modern e-commerce standards, leaving room for improvement

The Solution
Dynamic Interaction Design
Refined interactions and animations, enhancing user engagement and creating a more seamless and enjoyable shopping experience

Modernized Design System
Updated the UI with a contemporary design system, improving visual appeal and usability while maintaining brand alignment
