THE PROJECT

Lloyds Banking Group has many household names like Lloyds Bank, Halifax, Bank of Scotland and Scottish Widows. Being an account holder myself with Lloyds, I want to tackle some of the painpoints/frustrations I personally experienced so it can be more intuitive and allows me to get things done faster.

Role: Visual Designer Tools: Figma

New design

The visual design below focuses on improving the user journey & experience starting with refreshing the look & feel first then tackling some functionality so it cuts down the numbers of taps. My goal is to making changes where it can be more intuitive so it needs minimum explanation. Mobile banking apps are often data heavy, finding different UI elements to break up the content, helps improve readability which means easier to digest. By keeping it simpler & consistent, the UI cards used across different screens achieves that declutter look. I then introduced outline icons to lighten up screens as when used as visuals, subtle animation or infographics it catches the users attention more & easier to understand the context without being too wordy. Overall, it saves time and improves usability.
