Description : Decathlon Coach application aims to make sport accessible to many by helping people reach their objectives and stay fit and healthy thanks to coaching programs and advice for multiple sports.
The version 1 of the app is becoming quite old in terms of code and the UX is not really adapted anymore to what we want to propose to our users : the app passed from a tracking app to a coaching app. For all these reasons we decided to re-make totally the app in 2017.
It’s been a very exciting challenge for me to re-think the experience and the UI of the app. The goals or the design rework are :
Propose users coaching contents adapted to their sport thanks to a great home screen giving user personalized suggestions
Give coaching a bigger place in the app
Simplify the navigation
Give a fresh Decathlon look and feel
Fix many usability small pain points
Improve coaching experience
Prepare the app for more sports and more contents - build for the future
Insert in the code all UX and analytics tools for a better understanding of how users really use the app
To achieve that, I’ve been working hard, starting with user research with the product manager to define personas, UX maps, user stories… Then I gave life to the concept with an interactive mockup that we tested with end users (2 batches of qualitative testing with improvements along the way).
I also made quantitative tests to refine the design.
Today in 2021 the app is still live and used by hundreds of thousands of sportsmen!
