The Pursuit of Effortless Navigation

 

To house the molecules mentioned above, I had to establish our navigational structure with the help of the internal product team and stakeholders.

What buckets of content and user needs exist? How do our users use the app? Where do we anticipate evolving? With these questions at the forefront of our minds, we established key areas of the app.

 

Over time, the additions of Nutrition and Community built upon navigational patterns and mid-level molecules so that the overall experience was consistent and unified.

By establishing navigational patterns and content vehicles like tiles, preview cards, and detail pages for workouts and recipes, we were able to establish a consistent feel across experiences when exploring and navigating.

 
 

As you can see below, the two detail pages bear significant similarity. It is this attention to consistency and visual language that helps the app feel familiar even as new features augment the experience.
