Mirroring existing patterns—
With a rigid budget and time constraints, I looked at proven patterns in existing products with similar input functions, like Google Translate. That analysis was used in mapping out the flow to facilitate discussion and create a rapid prototype for testing.
Lean user testing was conducted with available people who fit mycar’s broad target. Notably, whether having the ‘text’, ‘voice’ and ‘media’ upload input as separate buttons, or with text and voice combined, was a point of friction between creative and UX. User testing confirmed the latter triggered a faster response time, being a familiar pattern seen in other products already on market.
