Tailwind

Client Overview

Tailwind is an IOS and Android application for house management. The essence of this application is that people connect a special router in garages and use the application to open the garage doors when the car is at a certain distance from it.

The challenge

Tailwind was a ready-made product. The main goal of our cooperation with Tailwind was to improve the product's usability, simplify it and structure it.

The main challenge for our team was building the right product architecture. Our partner's existing product was built chaotically and many of its modules needed grouping.

The strategy

Based on the concept of the application and its design, we prepared a roadmap to start the development in an agile manner:

• Business & user goals
• Stakeholder & user interviews
• Market research
• Personas
• Information architecture
• Wireframes
• Design system
• UI Design
• Clickable design
• Testing on users

The Target audience

User-flow

For Tailwind, we developed a new design system based on the existing one. We simplified the components that already exist in the application for easier product navigation. Our main task was to improve the settings block in the application.

The main goal for our team was to make the UI design of the application unobtrusive, pleasing to the eye and simple. It was important to add air to the design so as not to distract the user from the main actions in the application. We chose blue and light blue as the main colors for the products. These colors symbolize seriousness and reliability.

New user registration

In order for users to be able to use the application, they first need to register. They should use the application to scan the QR code on their router and connect to it by setting up the system itself.

Device details

In this section of the application, users should enter device details (number, location, number of doors, etc.) in order to connect it to the application.

Home

This section is necessary for users to be able to see and manage all connected devices to the application. Using the functionality in this section, users can open or close garage doors. Also, users can invite other users and connect their devices to the application.

Settings

Our team made the main focus on this part of the platform. We made this part of the platform as convenient as possible for use. We added the following sections to this block: vehicle list, shared access, notifications, integrations, diagnostic tools, firmware update, app settings and automations. Using settings, users can customize the application to suit their requirements and needs.

Results

As a result, our team upgraded the product completely, making it more convenient, functional and simple. Thanks to the updated Tailwind product, the process of connecting devices and the functionality of opening/closing doors become faster and more understandable for the user.
