PROJECT BACKGROUND

It's all started with…

When i stumbled upon the design challenge platform known as Crowwwn. I, as a passionate football fan, found myself constantly searching for match schedules and broadcast information. Frustrated by the lack of a centralized platform for this essential information, I decided to take this design challenge and create a solution.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

When I watch the world cup, I want to be able to see where I can watch games and which teams are still in, so I can be informed going into each game.

PROCESS

How I tackled this project.

With keeping the time constraint in mind. I decided to use lean process to improve existing design around football app.

Exploration

Design & Test

EXPLORATION

Study your competition.

Started research with direct and indirect competitions and learning different parameters about them.

About the users.

I conducted interviews with 2 potential users and also conducted desk research to understand the pattern. Here’s what I found:

User prefers app over website.

Users prefer mobile apps for convenient access to real-time football news and highlights on smartphones.

Push Notifications for quick update.

Users highly value push notifications for quick updates on football news.

75% of ISL viewers are college educated.

Over 56% of FIFA viewers hold positions in Government, Administrative, and Community Service jobs in India.

STRATEGIZE

About the opportunity.

After my initial research, which included processing all the data and a coach talk with myself. Utilizing card sorting provided valuable insights into the necessary features for Fotmania; however, recognizing the need for further refinement, MoSCoW analysis was employed to prioritize opportunities effectively.

There were many football-oriented apps. But most of them were cluttered with information, stuffed with ads, difficult to navigate, and only provided some of the stats. A well-designed platform that provides complete match stats, player information, schedules and offers updates in regional language were missing. This is the space Fotmania aims to capitalize on.

DESIGN

The challenge ahead.

After spending hours trying different football news apps along with wondering how to organize updates and how to make it scalable for future purpose. Here's what i propose.

Exploring methods to address the solution.

I concentrated on finalizing the topics for Fotmania, developing a comprehensive information architecture, and drafting various design layouts to ensure ease of navigation and scalability.

Developing the visual identity.

I selected a design layout and developed variations to obtain feedback. Then, I finalized the design for the brand identity.

Seeking input, and refining areas of improvement.

Insights gathered from usability studies helped me improve the flows.
