The Problem
The challenge lies in creating an onboarding process for the enduco app that effectively gathers necessary data for tailored and adaptive training plans while ensuring a user-friendly experience that accommodates both beginners and experienced athletes, bridging the gap between technical requirements and user ease.
The Solution
To address this challenge, we conducted quantitative research to identify friction points for novice users within the enduco onboarding process. By offering additional explanations and guidance, we've redesigned the flow to seamlessly collect essential data while minimizing user frustration, particularly for individuals unfamiliar with certain terms or concepts of endurance sports.
Business & User frustrations
Novice athletes struggle during the onboarding because they don't understand scientific terms. This frustration not only hinders user experience but also contributes to a dropout rate within the onboarding process, causing frustration for the business as well.
