I had the opportunity to redesign and recreate “Microsoft apps” for our new trunk app “Your Phone Companion.” The function of this app is to easily sync your Android to your Windows 10 PC for instant access to your phone's photos, texts, docs, and more – right from your PC. With the help of our project managers and engineers, I was able to create the UX / UI and store banners for this feature.
The screens below were the existing app “Microsoft Apps.” We used the backend from this app to create “Your Phone Companion”
User flow / wireframes
New Flows
I created illustrations that matched MSFT brand style and lighted up the flow with precise copy to help users understand they can sync their devices seamlessly.
App store banner
For our banner ads, I wanted our title copy to be no more than 3-5 words to reflect the imagery. The word limit and Imagery was decided through a series of user testing.
Notifications
I also explored and delivered multiple scenarios for desktop
Inline reply
Once devices are set up the user can reply from the PC instead of always using their mobile device.
Viewing photos
Mirroring devices
Using “Your Phone Companion” the user is able to mirror exactly what’s on their mobile device onto their PC.
