About Macy’s App Redesign Redesign
Macy's App is a mobile shopping application that was redesigned in 2019 for Android and iOS devices. The application allows customers to browse and purchase fashion, beauty and home products from a smartphone or tablet. The layout is clean and simple, and takes visual cues from fashion media and consumer technology products. Camera-based tools support scan and pay, and augmented reality features allow customers to preview products before purchase. The redesign was based on extensive user research and on customer feedback, and user engagement increased after the launch.
