A way to connect individuals and families through storytelling.
FamilySearch
Role
I was the lead UX designer on this project executing on:
• Interaction Design
• Visual Design
• UX research
• Documentation
The entire team consisted of one additional UX for support during prototyping and, seven others, including stakeholders and other various disciplines.
Problem
The FamilySearch team wanted to create a product that would reach people who are not familiar with family history but could introduce them to it.
Timeline
We used the Google-style week-long "sprint" format to nail down the majority of the process documented in this case study. However, we spent a few additional days validating the design and gathering feedback.
Findings
• Individuals and families find connection through sharing personal stories.
• Mobile-first: leverage the tools smartphones provide outside of the app you are building, ie. text messages, photo storage, etc.
