Web app UI/UX for enterprise clients who have multiple accounts and also offer the app to their own customers.

Thanks Aaron and David! The Duffl team really appreciates your feedback and we'll definitely strive to make the app better

Shift your gamification notification till after customer completes a purchase, maybe even an email. And the subscription option could be an email and give them 7 days to sign up with credit for the previously paid fees. Or $10 credit

I adore this style of video, it's very useful for shifting my perspective and critiquing my own apps based on what you said about those. As someone who has designed, as well as built a lot of apps, it can be very hard to see what's wrong with them before I let the users test it.

honestly, all the app designs seemed very amateurish and not well thought out, some didn't even fulfill basic design guidelines and principles, I like that the 2 hosts were still supportive of all these products and talked in a very genuine way with the intent to help the designs to improve, which is great because what's the point in discouraging anyone even if they are not good at some point of their journey but i think these designs were tbh average and amateurish even and didn't offer much to introspect on as they were having obvious problems maybe this design review series can be divided into two categories, one where you do reviews of already proven great products and try and decipher what all they did well and infer subtle observations that can be taken and learned from great products as they will offer more to learn from and the second can be this series where you try and help designers and makers create better products by reviewing their products. anyway interesting video, Keep going guys.

I think BoldVoice was a really nice app, not Uber/AirBnB level of polish but definitely delightful and intuitive and polished to a decent level. Duffl was more fun-oriented given the audience, and I liked it. The others were not so great, but Bluedot was doing something cool, just needs a good designer to improve the information design. If I was to rank, it'll be BoldVoice > Duffl > Bluedot > Pyrls while EdenCare takes a miserable last.

I don't think they were amateurish. I've used worst apps in real life. The language app is super clean in my opinion. The college food app also looked like it had a lot of work put into it. Yeah, a little busy but I can tell that it took a decent amount of dev hours. Besides if the apps were already perfect, what would be the point of making this video? I'm also curious to know if you're building anything yourself? Anyone that has or is building something knows that it is hard. The other thing that is mentioned frequently in the video is the importance of getting your app into a real user's hand to help spot UX problems quickly. And personally, that's my own takeaway from this video.

Depending on how new these startups are, you shouldn't be worrying about design principles, the app looks ok to someone who doesn't understand design principles and that's all that matters.

4:17 5:43 6:04 12:38 14:08 15:48 23:03 there's a lot of good advice here

The first app needs more padding around the base layout container

2:57 Clickable areas can actually be a minimum of 40px square not 60px square. Primary buttons are typically between 48px - 60px height, depending on your grid system.

Great timing, I'm building a quick app MVP right now. I'll admit, I was expecting more in the UI design of these app, but agree with the UX feedback. I'll check out glide, so mission accomplished on advertising. :)

Please make more episodes like this.

My goddess I’m doing my web-application start-up on glide . Amazing talk , thank you for all the details.

22:18 "If your app is about content and doesn't have many interactions, it's often better as a website."

A point on that duffle feedback @13:44. Yes as a first time customer you'd want to finish the checkout quickly first before being presented with rewards, but if it's a college student targeted app, there's a good chance first time customers have seen their friends use it, or have been referred to it directly. If that's the case, then they would know Duffl enough to see the benefit on first purchase of a pass that skips the line for future purchases. But the way they did it could have been on the purchase confirmation page.

This is great learning for me! Please keep such videos coming!

Great to see David here. YC and Glide FTW!

In-app navigation is not nice. Every user wants to use the maps app they like so standard design is to deep link to their favorite maps app.

Soon, the standard requirement will be to push it to your car nav system via some sort of API. Too much fiddling around to make it practical plus it would allow FSD to get you there.

Better than a course. Thanks guys

Awesome job. Would love to have my app reviewed next time!

Thanks YC ❤

Loved it. Expecting more app reviews.

Thank you, this explanation is very good.

Great job YC ❤...

Originally I skipped over this, but I’m glad I came back to watch it. Great UI/UX advice!

What about alternative app stores

IS these app built with glide?

The guy on the right was like, cmon dude, there’s a Red Bull icon right there, no need to play stupid.

love it

Are these companies part of YC? Because they look like they were built overnight by amateur designers and developers

Very good

Did I miss something? BoldVoice - you are a spanish speaker and you want to learn/improve english, but the lessons are presented in english - Shouldn't it be in spanish? Also I think that the language selection should be the first question in the onboarding process.

I think design is not the main thing in the app. For example in food delivery your primary care about catalogue and time to deliver

Are any of these startups funded by YC?
