Daily UI Challenges

#1 - Amazon Delivery Tracker

Date

Time Spent

~ 2.5 hrs

Thoughts

A redesign of Amazon’s delivery status as a widget/notification. It lets users see progress and arrival time at a glance, without opening the app.

#2 - IPod Recreation

Time Spent

~ 3 hrs

Thoughts

I was curious to reimagine the classic iPod in a modern style. My goal was to preserve its unique round gesture by using a circular music timeline, while also stacking album covers horizontally to capture a similar browsing feel. I also used this as an opportunity to experiment with glassmorphism.

#3 - Save YouTube timestamp and section

Date

Time Spent

~ 1.5 hrs

Thoughts

I wanted to design a bookmarking feature for YouTube that makes it easy to capture timestamps or sections, so I can revisit those meaningful moments anytime.

#4 - Google Maps Post Visit Survey

Date

Time Spent

~ 1 hr

Thoughts

I wanted to design a post-visit survey integrated with Google Maps that allows customers to leave feedback on the exact dishes they ordered. Instead of a generic review, this approach captures dish-level ratings and quick notes, making it easier for customers to share their experience and for restaurants to gain actionable insights to improve menus.

#5 - Floating Action Icon

Date

Time Spent

~ 1 hr

Thoughts

Have you ever mis-clicked a dismissal button on ads? It is probably intentional but it makes me distrust the app.

Starting from that frustration, I explored how popped-out floating circular icons can improve clarity. By detaching actions like close, search, and add from their containers, they become more immediate, discoverable, and tactile, strengthening action hierarchy and reducing mistakes.

#6 - Instant Tip Calculator

Date

09/02/2025

Time Spent

~ 1.5 hr

Thoughts

I wanted to make tipping faster and clearer. The design lets people pick a common % quickly, while still adjusting easily if needed, with the tip and new total shown right away.

A useful next step would be adding split-bill functionality.
