Mockups

After pulling up research, ideation methods and UX methodology , jumping into mockups felt as a natural progression. Going into this phase I had to consider the various influences we would have on this project.
Considerations : Ergonomy of the thumb
I think Designers must relate to ergonomy in more than a few ways. A designed artifact must not only support the large research findings, but also macro level outcomes or unestablished routes. One such micro level finding is the ergonomy of the thumb, especially navigating on a hand held device. While there is application of large UX knowledge to the visual format, empirical study relates attributes of interactive experience to that of 'navigation utility', a common way of quantifying how a navigation may be verified. Our empirical results establish a clear navigational significance for deeper, systematic ways of unleashing better experiences.
Breaking the addiction Pattern
A study among teenage TikTok users found that those who showed addictive tendencies toward the platform performed worse when recalling number sequences. The findings, published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, further suggested that this working memory deficit was in part due to increased depression and anxiety - Peng Sha and Xiaoyu Dong
Apps like Tiktok guilty of Psychological contagion through app addiction try to pull back users from over usage.
Profanity mode
Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, Jay has recorded and analyzed thousands of people swearing, and he’s come up with two core reasons for why we do it. For one, it allows us to express our emotions, to vent, to release. “It also communicates very effectively, almost immediately, our feelings,” Jay says. “And other words don’t do that.”
Colourscheme & Style
The multi coloured Saul bass visual style lend to a fun sort of distraction for the user to engage in very lightly and generate memes like no man’s business!
