I redesigned the Fable book club app after my club agreed that it wasn’t the most user friendly.  

​

I surveyed a group of (12) peers/book club members and scoured through the first hundred Apple 1-star reviews to discover the top three pain points I wanted to focus on. After ideation, the result was an improved Interface, the warmth of a bookstore the users felt was lacking, and a decluttered club lobby, creating discussion spaces with smooth, slack-style threads. A spoiler-free feature was also added to the discussions. Now, everyone can talk in the same thread, and a quick toggle lets users set their chapter before posting so comments are filtered for those still catching up.

 

Usability testing with 5 members showed smoother navigation and high satisfaction with the spoiler toggle. One pain point remained with tab discovery, which I corrected with clearer labeling.
