Goal
Enable Connexxion app and Apple Watch users to take public transportation effortlessly, keeping their phones in their pockets while maintaining full control over their journey. I conceptualized the app’s features, structure, and visual design.
02.
Trip planning
A core feature is trip planning, which I streamlined for seamless use on the Watch. Users can select their destination, and the app suggests the optimal route. Each step includes clear instructions and essential travel information.
03.
Ticket purchase
Users can conveniently purchase tickets with a prominently displayed button, ensuring they never travel without one. A progress bar indicates the ticket’s validity period, and notifications alert users before expiration.
04.
Notifications
Notifications keep users informed without needing to keep the app open. Alerts cover bus delays, cancellations, and ticket expirations.
05.
Complications
The app takes advantage of many Apple Watch features, providing relevant information directly on the watch face. These complications display real-time details, such as the current navigation step or ticket status.

Result
The app concept was fully designed, documented, and presented to the client. However, at the time, the client had other priorities, delaying the watch app’s development.
Working on this concept gave me valuable insight into the specifics of Apple Watch apps design and helped me better understand the needs and usage patterns of smartwatch users.
