THEIR PROBLEM

THEIR PROBLEM

Many digital apps have been designed to offer language learning in a way that is easy, gamified and highly accessible. This works in theory, but through research, we have found that many of these apps fail at helping users retain their target languages.

PROJECT GOALS

PROJECT GOALS

LangSocial aimed to be different. They thought "There has to be a way to help our users retain what they learn". So, the goal in designing this app was this: Users must be able to remember and communicate their target languages and build communities.

THE SOLUTION

THE SOLUTION

Full language immersion! Languages aren't remembered through vocabulary exercises and memorisation tests, They're learned through experiences and novel exposure. LangSocial will create an ecosystem for making meaningful memories with language.

There are many people who want to learn languages but the language learning apps out their fail to keep them engaged, or they find they don't retain the information when in the real world.

BRANDING

We wanted a look and feel that felt human, warn tones, and pastel colours are not typical for app design, we wanted this social app to feel like a comforting and safe community space.

REFLECTIONS

REFLECTIONS

Challenge 1

Not having users to test the app concept made it hard to gauge whether the app met user needs.

Learning 1

A concept is only as good as the amount of times it can be proven valuable through user tests.

Challenge 2

Figuring out which ideas and concepts were necessary and which were stretch goals or better abandoned.

Learning 2

Cool concepts are not equal to great ideas that solve problems.

Challenge 3

Not having enough time to build a testable prototype.

Learning 3

Breaking a concept down it's essence allows for quicker and more useful prototypes.

Next steps

Next steps

Step 1

Refine the concept to it's essence to plan an app build.

Step 2

Build a workable prototype with the proper channels.

Step 3

Test the prototype with many users.
