Park up front overhaul (part 1)
Overview
Park Up Front is currently a social media app for automotive enthusiasts. Using the app, drivers can show off their cars, find local events, and join clubs. I took some time to develop the interface of the app further and help users find what they wanted quicker. My designs, while imperfect, seek to address gaps in task error rate and open opportunities for future growth.
Project Date: December 2023
Project Timeline: 1 Month
Programs Used
Figma
Adobe Photoshop
Initial survey reports show users are largely unsatisfied with the puf app
What users had to say
"Too complex
for older people"
"UI is ugly and clunky"
"It has no purpose"
"It's too cumbersome"
"Difficult to
navigate at first"
"Buggy"
"Needs to be updated"

New Designs
New Profile Page - Garage
In the improvement, the layout has been redesigned to prioritize user posts.
New Profile Page - Clubs
The tabs under the profile info allow users to toggle between different details on a driver's page. Under clubs driver's can show off their affiliations or choose to hide them if they desire.
New Profile Page - Events
A much needed feature was to allow drivers to showcase their current and previous events. One of the coolest things about tracking attendees at each event means now users can share which meets they have visited most recently.
New Search
Previously the search function was a separate bar for each topic (drivers, clubs, etc.), but now search has become the main function. Allowing users to sift through each category at the same time.
New Search - Clubs
After tapping on the clubs category. Drivers will be shown relevant clubs based on their location to view and join. The goal of this new function would be to promote local car clubs and motivate users to find their own communities quicker.
New Club
Previously club members were listed individually in a single column row. Bringing a 3 member wide grid will allow more users to be seen at one time without compromising tap precision.
New Club - Events
Currently users can only see planned events hosted by clubs in the app. With the new design improvements, drivers will be able to see all the events previously hosted by a club. Expanding this feature to include events the club has attended would be promising to look at with further time allotment.
New Event
The new event page brings users quick information about what the event is, where it is, when it is, and who is attending. This is fairly similar in design to the current screen in the Park Up Front App.
New Event - Attendees
Upon clicking the "View Attendees" button drivers can check who all is visiting the event. If given more time I would like to expand on this feature and let users sort through the attendees by make, model, and year of cars attending.
