The Problem
Users of Lifesum find the current UI and offered features overwhelming and stressful when tracking their nutrition, and many of the features and design elements of the current app do not cater to their specific nutritional needs.
The Solution
Redesign the UI of the Lifesum app while introducing new features that make each user’s nutrition journey less stressful and more calm, personal, and enjoyable to track and reach their goals.

UX Research
Before we created this UI experience for Lifesum, we performed extensive user experience research to figure out the needs and problems that Lifesum users faced, as well as testing our newly introduced features through wireframes.

This design system aims to create a bright, approachable, and energizing nutrition experience through the use of bold colors reminiscent of specific foods, illustrative graphics and icons, and modern photography that brings positivity to the users of Lifesum.
