Dynolicious Redesign

Bringing a Performance-Tracking App into the Modern Era

The Problem

Dynolicious was one of the first performance-tracking apps for mobile devices, but its interface and UX had not evolved alongside mobile design standards. With competition growing, the app needed a modern redesign to improve usability, boost sales, and align with Apple's evolving expectations for premium apps.

The Challenge

The original app struggled with complex data presentation, an outdated UI, and declining engagement. The challenge was to:

  • Make performance data more accessible through improved data visualization.
  • Create a clean, modern UI that aligned with Apple's design language.
  • Maintain brand credibility while differentiating from competitors.
  • Improve usability for both casual users and hardcore automotive enthusiasts.

The Process

UI Redesign

I streamlined the interface by simplifying layouts, reducing cognitive load, and improving visual hierarchy for key performance data. The result was an app that felt faster, cleaner, and more intuitive.

Data Visualization Enhancements

I transformed raw performance data into interactive, easy-to-understand charts and metrics, making insights more actionable for users.

Modern Aesthetic

I crafted a sleek, high-performance visual style that appealed to both Apple’s design philosophy and automotive enthusiasts, ensuring the app looked premium and authoritative.

App Store Optimization

Beyond UX, I ensured that Dynolicious was positioned to stand out in the App Store, updating app icons, preview imagery, and branding to make the app more attractive to new users.
