Reviews

4.5

In UX design, stimulation means adding elements that make the experience: • Interactive – users enjoy clicking, swiping, or exploring • Visually appealing – good colors, animations, and layouts attract attention • Engaging – notifications, rewards, or smooth transitions keep users interested • Easy and satisfying – users feel comfortable and confident while using the app

I liked how the simulation provided a real-world UX scenario, combining competitor analysis, customer research, and problem-solving. It helped me understand how to translate user insights into actionable design recommendations and think from a product perspective rather than just a design perspective.

I really liked how realistic this simulation was. Analysing actual customer survey data and observational notes to find trends gave me hands-on experience with UX research. It helped me understand how to convert raw data into actionable recommendations for product improvement. The task was well-structured and directly relevant to real digital banking challenges.
