Brief
GoCatch is a mobile application that connects taxi drivers directly with passengers across Australia. We conducted an end to end review of the booking process for both the passenger and the driver.
Solution
GoCatch should aim for an extremely simple application that allows passengers to book a cab in one screen and allows drivers to accept jobs in one click. As a team we recognized that the main pain points were related to three problem areas: barrier to enter, passenger wait time, and call between the passenger and the driver.
Process
User Flow
We analyzed the user flows on both the passenger and driver side, and identified the pain points, opportunities, and possible solutions.
Ideas and Wireframing
Every member of the team sketched the screens for the path we defined. Then, organized the best solutions in one set of sketches.
Usability Testing
We set the recruitment brief, wrote the script for the interviews, and created interactive prototypes to test the passenger ideal path and our new ideas.
