Challenge Summary

Welcome to Mediafly - NC Mobile Application UX Design Update Challenge! In this challenge, we are looking forward to your help on creating fresh new design (redesigning) from existing designs for the NC Mobile Application on iPad & iPhone devices.

Nightingale-Conant is expecting creative and UX design for this mobile app, which will be used by young professionals looking to find inspirational or career-enhancing content. You could refer (http://www.nightingale.com) for more details about Nightingale-Conant. This application will be built and deployed on mediafly theme, which will be accessed by end user on iPad or iPhone only (responsive application for iOS8 on iPad and iPhone).

We have provided existing designs (old screens and old requirements document for your reference to understand better) and new requirements noted below for the changes/updates on existing design. We are looking for you to provide fresh new designs/screens and click-paths based on the provided requirements. Good luck and we are looking forward to your submissions!


The NC mobile application theme will be built on Mediafly Interactives Framework (http://www.mediafly.com, http://devdocs.mediafly.com/interactives). We would require following pages and click-paths as per the requirements on both landscape and portrait views which supporting responsiveness for iOS8 on iPad (2048x1536) and iPhone (750x1334). Please refer existing screen resolutions for your designs.

Required Pages:

1. Home View: (existing screen)

  • - We are looking for fresh new designs. The new design for the Navigation and Home View that includes the new features.
  • - Maintain similar style because this is used throughout the app but create a new fresh approach to showing authors, products and all of the other elements that are currently available in the current Home view.
  • - Remove the fly-out menu button and move all elements (menu items) into the home view.
  • - The navigation will then be applied to all the views. The navigation and home views should look consistent with the other views that will remain (e.g. Author, Product).
  • - The resolutions should be fully responsive design for phone to tablet landscape form factors.
  • - Include a "Quote of the day" area which would show up to 3 lines of quote text and the author of the quote.
  • - Eliminate the large Categories icons at the bottom and instead just show the categories that the user has selected and a link to open the category selector again to change selected categories.
  • - Combine Featured Authors and Featured Products into 1 area so that for a particular Featured Author it shows that Author's products. And then the ability to swipe through Authors and their Products.
  • - Include Recommend Segments but re-think how they should show up on the screen so that it looks better.
  • - Include a "New" section and include "New" banner on Segments, Products, Authors that are new in the last 30 days.
  • - Recently played (i.e. the segments that were played in order of recency).

2. Other Screens: (all existing screens)

  • - We are looking for the redesigning of all these screens to look fresh new design.
  • - You need to apply the required instructions documented in Home View section above to make consistent across these pages.

3. Downloader View:(new screen)

  • - This is new screen which does not exist.
  • - Create a "Downloader" view, which shows all of the segments that this user has downloaded.
  • - Allow the downloaded segments to be viewed in different ways:
    • By download date
    • Grouped by product they are part of
    • Grouped by author
