This is a concept that explores a redesigned Banking app (I took Nordea as example), focusing on enhancing wallet management, account overviews, and savings tracking while ensuring a seamless and intuitive user experience.
Given my initial lack of familiarity with banking systems, I started with in-depth research, benchmarking existing banking apps to understand best practices and analyzing user forums to identify pain points and expectations. This process helped me uncover how users interact with banking services and how to foster stronger user engagement.
The app needed to accommodate both tech-savvy users and those with limited digital experience. Nordea's diverse customer base includes a wide range of age groups and needs, so the design focused on clarity and ease of navigation.
The home screen provides instant access to essential information, allowing users to quickly:
✅ View account balance & transactions
✅ Manage upcoming payments & savings
✅ Perform fast transfers & bill payments
✅ Use a predictive search to find payment contacts
✅ Access an interactive wallet section similar to the home screen
The UI maintains a balance between minimalism and functionality, ensuring clarity without sacrificing depth.
The user can check the balance, savings, transferences, withdraws and the most visual feature there, cards. Users pays with cards (debit, credit). A draggable wheel of cards, that I can select and pay, using NFC technology could make the look and feel realistic. Like holding a card in the hand.
User testing uncovered several usability challenges, leading to critical refinements:
🚀 Menu Accessibility – The three-dot vertical menu was hard to tap, requiring an increased touch area for easier access.
🚀 Toolbar Navigation – Users missed hidden features due to horizontal scrolling, so I added a subtle overflow indicator for better discoverability.
🚀 Multi-Account Switching – User feedback highlighted the need for a quick way to switch between multiple accounts, a feature earmarked for future development.
