Research

Research

During the research phase, we benchmarked banks in Turkey as well as leading global banking and wallet apps. We conducted user interviews to identify key pain points and used card sorting to understand users’ mental models. Research insights and benchmarks continuously informed each user flow throughout the process.

UI Concept

UI Concept

As part of Ziraat Katılım’s full digital transformation, the team aimed to modernize the product’s visual language and overall UI approach. I worked independently to create a Tone of Voice presentation defining how the brand should communicate with users and express itself visually. I also reviewed the existing UI, shared feedback, and proposed a new UI. Based on the outcomes of these sessions, we designed key user flows with aligned UI elements, and once the direction was finalized, we established a design system and component library.

Overall, it was a highly collaborative experience involving 50+ stakeholders, including analysts, product managers, developers, clients, designers, and real users. The design team initially started with six designers, and the project was completed by myself and another senior designer over a one-year period. Even after the core designs were completed, development and service-related challenges required ongoing iterations while preserving design consistency across the product. The project was launched this year and has started receiving positive feedback from users.

One Tap Player Experience

One Tap Player Experience

The player screen was one of the most important screens regarding the kids' experience. While working on this project, I decided to focus on the one-tap experience based on my research. The reason is that the kids aren't familiar with the mute or full-screen button, which drove us to remove that buttons and showing play as a single button for kids to watch the video automatically on fullscreen.

In the search feature, we show all characters' photos to make 3-6 years old kids able to find their target content directly instead of forcing them to find the content via a text search which is hard for kids between 3-6 years old.
