The Problem Statement

The old version of the cloth donation mobile app lacks a cohesive and user-friendly visual design, hindering user engagement and detracting from its noble purpose of clothing donation.


Results from testing show that users have difficulties navigating the app due to inadequate colour choices, font readability issues, and insufficient contrast, leading to frustration and potential abandonment.


Consequently, there is a need to redesign the app's visual elements to optimize the user experience and encourage more effective cloth donations.
