The Challenge

HP-appen helps students prepare for the Swedish university admission exam. My mission was to improve the app’s user experience by redesigning key flows and enhancing visual appeal — especially to boost engagement through gamification.

My Contribution

  • Designed new flows for Quests, Factions, Challenges, and Lectures
  • Improved the mobile login and dashboard experience
  • Enhanced visual structure and UI clarity
  • Applied accessibility best practices (WCAG)

Methods & Tools

Used Figma for all design work, collaborated in Slack, structured tasks in Notion, and followed agile design cycles based on real user feedback.

Learnings & Results

I delivered 8+ redesigned flows with strong user focus and responsive behavior. The new interface simplified the learning journey and increased clarity. This internship helped me understand the dynamics of real product teams and design with both constraints and creativity.
