UI and UX design in public transport
The public transport pad is the interface for communication with transport service employees - regardless of where they are located. More than 10,000 employees use this work tool every day. The information must be immediately accessible and comprehensible. A well thought-out usability and an intuitive interface design is essential.
In an iterative design process, individual modules and components were conceived and designed for the existing requirements. Over the years more and more interfaces and functionalities were added. In the meantime, the iPad App has become the central solution for the transport service and for many public transport companies it is no longer possible to imagine the everyday life without it.
iOS Native Design
It was a fundamental decision to stay as close as possible to Apple's Human Interface Design Guideline. Not only did the driver's assistant immediately feel at home with the app, but it was also ensured that the user interface could be implemented efficiently over many years and new iOS versions.
Continuous development of the App
The app has grown rapidly since its launch in 2014 and has provided many public transport companies in Switzerland, Germany and Italy with valuable services in the digital transformation and securing of communication with transport service employees. In the meantime, the app comprises more than 15 modules. Further modules are already being planned.
