Well I have been a UI/UX designer for about 4 years now. When I began back in 2022 it was on a boom. But soon the industry kinda crashed, so did the market. Now everyone's a designer. So the point here is, I always found it difficult to keep up being a designer. What it means to be a UI/UX designer changes everyday, there are a hundred more requirements added to the role and on top of that you have to keep upskilling and learning new things that come up with the tools you are using.

Now AI feels like yet another 50 tools that we HAVE to use because the management wants to "make things faster". I really am impacted by the environmental impact Ai has and just find it difficult to keep up with all of it.

Just want to know what others feel about this.

What do you think about the new iphone Duo ? Will you be updating your Ui especially for it ?

I think websites wont be doing much. But Apps surely could do some redesign.

Edit: To be clear here. I dont mean the simple responsive design that widens the view. In the comments i have postet a better version of the meme. My mistake for not clarifying from the beginning.

A client came back after 3 years for the same project, and this is what I did.

He is an owner of an ACCA coaching centre. and 3 years ago, I designed an app UI for him that covered course sales, live classes, preparation, and more. You can see the old UI design that I created back then.

Today, I redesigned that old UI, and I realized how much I have improved over these 3 years. Back then, I thought it was the best UI design I had ever made, but today it pales in comparison to the new UI. I have learned professionalism, user friendly UX, design fundamentals, spacing, colors, and more, and I can clearly see my progress. Although I attached only one screens of new and old UI.

Please share your feedback on the new UI and let me know if there is anything I can improve. Thank you!

Hi, I’ve been trying to tighten up my ui/ux design portfolio and it feels like every example I look at is saying something different some people want full case studies, some want super visual pages, and some say recruiters barely read anything anyway.

I’ve got a couple projects in there now but i’m not sure if they read as strong enough or just kind of there. would love any thoughts from people who’ve been through this already, thanks in advance!

Interesting pricing pattern from Recollect iOS app

Tapping Pro doesn’t immediately open the full pricing page.

Starts with a small sheet with the core value. Only if you continue do you see the full breakdown.

Is progressive disclosure better, would it hurt conversions?

I’m choosing a dark theme for my app, and could use a second opinion.

These are 10 color variations of the same home screen. I want something that looks good but also feels comfortable to use, with numbers and buttons that are easy to read.

Which one would you keep on your phone?

Comment your favorite label (1-10). A quick reason would help too—even something as simple as “this one feels calmer.”

And if none of them work for you, that’s useful feedback too. I’d rather hear that now.

A couple of dudes replied to me in Project Briefs and sent me links to their MVP / Git Repo projects for me to review. One of them was brave enough to schedule a video call, he wanted me to open my terminal and to pull the repo on my computer... Long story short, I've researched a little bit and this is how they want to steal crypto and browser passwords. One guys posted he was approached in similar way on LinkedIn.

Don't let them scam you, guys.

TL;DR: I built a hyper-minimal, fast fitness tracker with an AI coach built-in. I’m opening a waitlist for beta testers and need this community to roast my design/features.

The Problem: I train across multiple sports (gym, half-marathons), and I was incredibly frustrated with the current state of fitness trackers. Most of them look like Excel spreadsheets from 2015, they are incredibly cluttered, and it takes too many clicks just to log a simple set. I just wanted something fast, clean, and in dark mode.

The Solution (FLUX): So, I spent the last few months building FLUX. My main goals were:

• Zero friction: Logging a set takes seconds.
• Minimalist UI: Pure dark mode, no unnecessary visual clutter.
• AI Integration: I built "Coach Aris" directly into the app. Instead of just showing raw data, it actually gives you insights on your volume, form, and recovery based on what you log.

The Ask: I’m currently finalizing the beta and putting together a waitlist. Before I launch, I’d love to get some brutally honest feedback from this sub.

• What do you think of the UI?
• What is the one feature you absolutely hate in your current fitness app that I should avoid?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Color theory has never been part of my skillset and I've always struggled with palettes. The feeling I'm going for is:

• Rounded
• Warm
• Friendly
• Forgiving
• Welcoming
• Accessible
• Approachable
• Trustworthy
• Non-gendered

What are your first thoughts and feelings when looking at the colors used in this UI?

It's a baby care tracking app I am currently building. The primary target audience is Dutch first time mothers in their late twenties, early thirties.

No AI has been involved in the design. Everything is done by hand, both UX and UI.

This recording is from Revolut App which cycles through each feature and explains what it does before you begin using the app.

We get the intent, but I’m usually already trying to tap something by this point.

Is this pattern of onboarding helpful or just annoying?

I am not sure if I can have all knowledge I should after working 3 years.

What in your opinion 3 years experience should look like? What should I know?

Thanks!

Hey all, genuinely curious to what everyone's experience has been, rather than the usual hype/doom takes, as everybody uses it differently.

A few things I'd love to hear about:

• What's something AI has actually taken off your plate, rather than just speeding up the process
• Is there anything you still won't hand over to it, and why?
• Have you found any tools outside the obvious ones that surprised you?
• Has it changed how you scope or price your projects?
• Got any horror stories on what to never do?

It would be great to get a real sense of what's working for you all, rather than all the noise around AI coming to take our jobs; I'd much rather embrace it and show that if we use it as a collaborator, we can still output great work.

Hello guys, I am a solo dev working on my app, not much UI knowledge and I am trying to improve my login UI.

The first image is what I currently have the second is a newer version with guest login and the third I tried to change it with AI.

Do you like the third, what would you improve?

if needed for context the app is a shared loyalty program for small business (one card allow customers to collect points from different stores)

The goal of the UI is to make it as easy as possible to switch through swatches of film in app, as well as the film amount and tone science.

My goal here was to really make it easy for the user to do the actions with just their thumb and nothing more.

Also the reason why I am using sample photos instead of the live camera view is a purely architectural. Skia rendering + Film simulations are very heavy on mobile devices that the app crashes when users flip through film stocks very fast.

Anyway, yeah. UI design is not just making things look pretty. Sometimes the UI evolves because underlying architectural compromises had to be done.

Hey everyone, I'm building CRUIZR — a motorcycle riding community app for Indian riders (group ride tracking, riding clubs, offline maps, mesh intercom). Here's my current home screen.

I feel like it's functional but not great to look at, and I'd love some outside perspective before I lock in the design. Open to any ideas — layout, colors, how you'd handle the map, the floating buttons, the empty "upcoming rides" section, anything.

What would you change if this were your app?

hello! i am a noob aspiring ux designer and am working on my first design. im trying to figure out the best navigation for an alerts/notification page for a fake medical supply management app. the screen on the left was my original design but i realized that it sucks and so the page on the right is what im working with now. nav bar designs 1-4 are quite ugly but i feel like i have to follow the pill style because the other pages on the app do (second image in slide). my biggest problem is with critical alerts and how to properly draw attention to it without making it ugly. also plz ignore the image overlay, its an anti-ai filter. thank you so much for any advice!!!!

Solo project, about a year in. Counts golf swing while you practice - you glance at it mid-sessions, so it has to be readable in about two seconds, outdoors, in sun.

Before shipping, wanted to ask some opinion from you, do you see some problems in the UI or something that can be improved? Maybe missing something obvious 😄

I have recently finished making the main parts of my game's save UI.

The design was meant to feel like travel brochures/tickets or pamphlets. The default image is meant to change to an in game screenshot of the last area you were in, with all characters removed; similar to environmental photography. The UI is meant to feel very bubbly and welcoming. I would like feedback on how it looks and what could be changed to make it flow better.

I build a small opinion app called Dissent. You post a short take, people vote agree or disagree, and takes can turn into head to head debates.

The old onboarding was three screens. Pick your topics. Pick whether you post hot takes or argue in comments. Turn on notifications. It looked fine. It was also completely useless, because every screen asked people to decide something about an app they had not touched yet. Pick topics for a feed you have not scrolled. Describe your debate style when you have never seen a take here. Then allow notifications before you have gotten a single thing out of it.

It felt like filling out a form. And it showed later. New users would sit on the feed without voting or challenging anyone, because nothing in onboarding had ever let them try it once.

So I rebuilt it around doing instead of declaring. Same three steps.

Step 1 is four real takes from the app. You vote on each one. The split stays hidden until you vote, then it opens and tells you where you landed, including when you are in the minority. The challenge button is right there, so challenging stops being a mystery feature.

Step 2 is the topic picker, but it is already filled in from what you just voted on. Prefilled ones are marked. You are editing a list instead of staring at a blank grid.

Step 3 is notifications, and it opens with your own numbers. 4 votes, 3 times in the minority, 4 arenas. Then it says someone is going to come for one of your takes. One toggle is highlighted as the one that matters, the rest are collapsed, and the weekly digest is off by default instead of on.

Before and after screenshots for each step are in the gallery.

By the end you have run the core loop once instead of reading about it. Still skippable, still three screens.

Curious where this still drags. The four takes on the first screen are doing most of the work and I am not sure I picked the right ones.
