Role: Sole Designer and UX Researcher
📍 Where it Started:

No baseline of user research.
🏆 The Results:
V1 of the app refresh has seen an increase in user retention and app session length.

Reimagined the home page to highlight important information and establish a foundation for future features.
Introduction of new app mascot to deepen the app identity and connect with users.
Design of new features including an AI chatbot, Coaching sessions and integrated calendar events.
