A Design Evaluation of“If This Then That”

Kellie Su [#19]

Experienced User Interviews

● Personal and work use● Help organize notifications

○ Reduce need to visit/update multiple sites often● Tasks

○ Create new recipes from scratch○ Browse for already made recipes○ Discover new applications

Naive User Evaluations● Everyone responded well to the system

○ Good: “Sleek,” “pretty,” “simple,” “clean”

○ Bad: If recipe metaphor isn’t fully understood● Issues:

○ Too much minimalism = confusion■ Where do I go from here? Guess.

○ Setting up triggers/action potentially time consuming (eg: navigating out of app)○ Home screen confusing for new users
