The Challenge

The Sky Go app is rated 2.5/5. Users find it basic, time-consuming, crashes often, and buggy.

“30% of all actions
on the phone are
planning”

is in GO”

Communication

Every two weeks I presented
to the execs of Sky, giving
them an update and showing
signed off work.

I also supported other
members of staff, getting
them up to speed with the
project and helping them
with the new design
principles.

Final UI

Supporting the main UI designer, ensuring that the User Experience principles are consistently adhered to throughout the design process.
