What does the UX Designer actually do?

You see this, the question then. UX Design is about how it feels to use a product, a website or an app. So UX designers are people whose job it is to make software sort of simple, fun and easy to use. Essentially, if you use something and you like how it works, that is what UX design is. So they spot kind of the small details that like make if your apps and websites easy. Make things user friendly, I suppose. You know, I remember back in the 80s you would get a video player and it would take you like three years to figure out how to use. Still don't know how to use my microwave. Of course not. It's got bad UX design. Gotcha. My one's very easy to use it's got good ux design okay makes sense

so it's like when you need to enter a phone number

or an account number on some apps on your phone and you have to switch the keyboard from the letters to the numbers and symbols and then tap the first number and switch it again and all that sort of crack is really really annoying ux design is about simplifying all of that so there's other apps that automatically bring up the number

pad on the keyboard

and you know

whether yeah

look

I've kind of

pretty much explain that

okay

so the UX designers

job is to spot small details to make in your experience simpler. Apps easier to use, websites easier to use. So if that sounds like something you'd like to do, you don't need any design or coding experience. Remember that part. That's important. Uxdesign Institute.com forward slash
