FAQ s

• Can I just build the UI part and that’s it?

  Yes, you can. Although, if neglecting UX, don’t expect happy users to come back.

  Just like when building a house, you can skip the boring ‘Construction’ part and put all efforts into decorating. Eventually, no one cares about what’s under the hood, right? But don’t be surprised if one day you notice wall or ceiling cracks.

  The same applies to product building. Find the best UI/UX Design agency to ensure that your app not only LOOKS GOOD but also FEELS GOOD. Achieve customer satisfaction by giving them the simplest thing to use — with carefully-crafted user flows, smooth interactions and easy-to-get patterns.

• How much design is enough for an MVP?

  The MVP stage is neither a super-polished nor an ugly product.

  Put as much efforts and time into the design stage as will be enough to create an app that looks appealing (sloppy design won’t motivate anyone to start using it) and clearly presents the core functionality.

• How important is the UI/UX Design for a Product?

  Today’s users have access to thousands of apps. They can easily find whatever needed. Are you sure that the sloppy design will anyhow motivate them to start using your product? So, this is the answer.

• How long will it take you to design my app?

  The average time for building the entire design is about a month. Within this time frame, you get your app prototyped and greatly designed (UI/UX).

• Should I build 2 separate designs for a cross-platform mobile MVP?

  This isn’t mandatory at all.
  To get started, you can build the design for iOS. Later, once UI/UX for iOS app is done, you can start developing native controls for Android as well (no more than 10% of the entire work scope).

• How do you calculate the time of UI/UX?

  The process is pretty straight-forward:
  1) Identify all the user scenarios of a product
  2) Assume the number of screens needed to design each scenario
  3) Estimate how long it will take to implement and prepare the breakdown.

• What should I give you to launch the design process?

  To launch the design process, we need to define main usage scenarios i.e how users come to your app, what they can do within the system, what goals to accomplish, etc. Knowing target users is great — this knowledge will guide further design decisions i.e what colors/fonts to pick.

  Understanding competitors/Sketching and sharing interface ideas (even if your drawing skills suck) would also be super helpful.

• What tools do you use to design an app?

  To build the UI/UX, we prefer using Figma and Principle these days. We used to work with Sketch, Adobe XD, Photoshop in the past but we found out that Figma combines all the best features and also enables easy design-to-development handoff.

• How many variants of the design are you going to accomplish?

  At Purrweb, the very first UI/UX stage is the design concept. By saying ‘design concept’ we mean 1-2 visualized app screens from the core user flow presenting how the finalized design will look and feel.
  So, during the ‘Design concept’ stage we prepare and deliver up to 3 variants of the final design version. Your zone of responsibility is to pick the best one — even if they all seem to be awesome. Based on the approved concept the main design process starts.
