The Challenge
Meural’s app controlled a connected digital canvas designed to display curated art playlists, animations, and personal photo slideshows. However, as features grew over time, the interface became visually cluttered and difficult to navigate.
Users struggled with unclear interactions, confusing content access, and unintuitive workflows—particularly when uploading photos or distinguishing between free and paid content. The challenge was to simplify the experience without compromising the richness of the digital art offering.
Key Pain Points Identified
- Overcrowded interface with competing visual elements
- Complex and unintuitive photo upload flow
- No clear distinction between free and paid content
- External links opening inside the app, causing confusion
- Poor visibility of tappable elements
