Project Overview

This project was created for an Interaction Design course, where my team and I were tasked with researching and designing a new feature for the Splitwise app. Splitwise is a payment platform that simplifies group expenses by automatically calculating and splitting multiple bills.

Our goal was to identify user needs, uncover pain points, and propose a feature that enhances the user experience while staying true to the app’s core functionality. The process involved user research, journey mapping, wireframing, and prototyping a solution tailored to real-world group payment scenarios.

  • Preferred payment method: When settling expenses, users can specify their preferred method of receiving payments. This feature streamlines the repayment process by clearly showing each recipient’s chosen platform—such as e-transfer, PayPal, or Venmo—making it faster and more convenient for others to pay them back accurately and efficiently.
