Challenge

The application was first launched in 2015 and had some notorious usability issues.
The app's features were difficult to use and not understandable.
The app's interactions were confusing for its users.
Users only used a single feature in the entire app due to the aforementioned problems: turning Smart mode on or off.
For the development of the app, the team consisted of three members: back-end, front-end and Ux/Ui (me), from time to time we had other colleagues who helped us to test the app.
Before I joined the team, the time proposed for its launch was very short. The idea was to have it ready by December, and I joined the team at the end of July of the same year.
We had to plan and redo the design of the app from scratch and there were stages that we couldn't do before the launch, for example: usability test.
