About Allowonce 行動應用程式概念

Allowonce 是一款行動應用程式概念，旨在透過每月發放虛擬津貼卡來幫助年輕人管理、規劃和限制支出。透過在Allowonce卡上花錢，用戶可以輕鬆地將他們的支出限制在理想的每月預算內，並在付款後立即在其上貼上標籤來更有效地記錄/追蹤他們的支出。由於預算、計劃和追蹤支出都納入了Allowonce卡的發行過程中，因此用戶無需下載多個應用程式來管理其財務。

Unique Properties: This app concept was designed to help young adults manage, plan, and limit spending in one go, on a virtual allowance card. By using this Allowonce card, users can easily limit and track their spending.
Dimensions & Packaging: Mobile app concept intended for iOS devices.
(screen size : 390 x 844 px, optimized for iPhone 13 Pro)
Tags: Finance, credit card, banking, mobile, saving, spending, budgeting, young
Production Technology: Prototyping - Figma / Mock-ups - Adobe Photoshop / User research & testing - Slack, Zoom, Google Forms
Design Challenge: The most challenging part was to come up with the right solution idea that incorporates various user pain points identified during the user interview process. Users had different issues : some pointed to budgeting, while others mentioned difficulties of recording spending, and still other users complained about the inaccurate, untimely statements. I had to come up with a solution that encompasses and balances all those needs in one seamless flow, and that was the most challenging part of this project.
Research: < User interviews >
Objective : uncover user pain points in using existing market solutions
Methodology : Zoom call, 1 hour each, 5 users within age 18-35
Results : Key pain points were identified
< Usability testing >
Objective : test usability & validity of solution
Methodology : Slack huddle, 20 min each, 2 rounds with 10 users within age 18-35
Results : validity of solution was confirmed, task flow was extended.
< A/B testing >
Objective : quickly test user preference of certain screens
Methodology : Google Forms, 8 users within age 18-35
Results : 3 screens were redesigned
Inspiration: The idea of Allowonce came from user interviews. Allowonce is essentially a creative mashup of the different types of apps that users mentioned that they were using. Allowonce provides automated budgeting and spending tracking by combining the usability of credit cards, the interactivity of mobile apps, and active communication, an all-in-one virtual allowance card that eliminates the need to juggle between budgeting and banking apps.
Project Duration: This app concept started in May and was finished in August 2022, as a capstone project for BrainStation's UX Design Bootcamp. Even after the project was finished, user testing and iterations continued.
Operation Flow: The main flow shows all core functionalities of the app concept, which include budgeting, spending, and tracking : how a user might put in their income, expenses and financial goal(s) to (1) obtain automatically calculated budget, (2) issue an AllowOnce card for the month, (3) spend money from the card, and (4) record their spending.
