Enhancing FitLife app onboarding
During my internship at FitLife Inc., I redesigned the onboarding process for the FitLife app. The goal was to improve user retention and satisfaction by creating a more intuitive and engaging onboarding experience. FitLife is a fitness tracking app that helps users monitor their activities and progress.
Role: UX & UI design
Tools: Figma, Anima, Spline
Team: 2 product designers and a UX researcher
Timeline: 4 months (January 2023 - April 2023)
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The problem
The existing onboarding process for the FitLife app was confusing and cumbersome, leading to high drop-off rates and user frustration. New users struggled to navigate the app, understand its features, and set up their profiles, which negatively impacted user retention and overall satisfaction.

User Flow
This flowchart illustrates the steps a user takes during the onboarding process, from initial app download to completing the onboarding tutorial and accessing the main app features.
Exploration
The onboarding process for the FitLife app was chosen for exploration because it is the first interaction users have with the app. A smooth and engaging onboarding experience is crucial for user retention and satisfaction. By improving this component, we aimed to reduce user drop-off rates and ensure users understand the app's value proposition quickly.
Exploration one
Step-by-step walkthrough
Pros
Provides detailed guidance for each feature.
Reduces initial user confusion.
Cons
Can be time-consuming for users.
May overwhelm users with too much information upfront.
Exploration one
Interactive tutorial
Pros
Engages users through hands-on learning.
Allows users to explore features at their own pace.
Cons
Requires more development effort.
Some users may skip the tutorial, missing important information.
Exploration one
Minimalistic onboarding
Pros
Quick and straightforward, allowing users to start using the app immediately.
Reduces initial cognitive load.
Cons
May leave users unaware of key features.
Less guidance can lead to confusion later on.
Selected option
We chose the interactive tutorial because it balances user engagement with effective learning. This option allows users to learn by doing, which helps them retain information better and feel more confident using the app. Although it requires more development effort, the benefits of higher user engagement and better feature understanding outweigh the cons. By allowing users to explore at their own pace, we can cater to both novice and experienced users, enhancing the overall onboarding experience.
Workout tracking
The Workout Tracking Page features an improved layout that allows users to log their exercises quickly and efficiently. The page includes interactive charts and real-time feedback, helping users monitor their performance and make adjustments as needed.
Nutrition log
The updated Nutrition Log simplifies meal tracking with a user-friendly interface and comprehensive food database. Users can easily log their meals, view nutritional information, and track their daily intake to stay on top of their dietary goals.
Takeaways
Importance of user research: Understanding user needs and pain points is crucial for designing effective solutions.
Iterative design: Exploring multiple design options and iterating based on feedback leads to better outcomes.
