Key Insights
Supply Demand: The number of cars is increasing every year and there is less and less space to park.

Solution:
The redesign project followed a comprehensive UX research process to inform the final UI. This included conducting user interviews to gather insights on pain points and expectations, mapping out user journeys to understand interaction flows, creating a detailed UX blueprint to visualize the app's structure, and developing a robust app architecture to ensure functionality met user needs. These steps laid the groundwork for a clean, intuitive interface that emphasized ease of use and quick navigation. The new design features streamlined layouts, improved navigation, and clear, user-friendly visuals. This holistic approach transformed Parkey into a modern, efficient tool that enhances the user experience and encourages widespread adoption.
