Movie ticketing app for older adults in town

Even the most digitally savvy person will eventually experience a decline in the speed of thinking, eyesight, and other aspects that can impact the ability to use a digital product. This user segment is expanding, and we all hope to be a part of it someday.

Research

User Interviews

Older adults do pay bills, and recharge their phones online
One Calls their son or daughter to make payments at offline shops
Few have a hard time navigating new interfaces

Competitor Analysis

During this phase, I examined the commonly used design patterns currently in the market. Aimed to understand their strengths and weaknesses

Low fid wireframes and usability testing

I moderated the usability testing of this prototype with four adults and one youngster.

These were the insights

They asked where this theater was located. So location signifier should be present
Filter elements on the homepage were a bit confusing, look for better filter examples
Selecting seats should met with an indication of price as well
Include assurance in payment and ticket confirmation screens. Provide Better CTA
Important to show after ticketing practices

Edge Cases

Payment failures

Usage of direct copy. Ensuring the user understands the reasons behind the payment failure and tries better.
