Challenge
Iceberg was approached by Yofitt, to design an app that would allow users to book classes at over 50 partner gyms in multiple moroccan cities. The challenge was to create an app that would address the pain points of gym-goers and provide them with a seamless and convenient booking experience
The process
To ensure that we met our client's objectives, Iceberg adopted a user-centered design approach. We followed a structured process that enabled us to understand the needs and pain points of our target users, ideate solutions, and prototype and test our designs. By prioritizing user experience, we were able to develop an app that is intuitive, visually appealing, and meets the requirements of both the client and end-users.
