  • For users whose phones don't support NFC technology, they need to connect with a card reader.

  • The app will automatically display an alert box prompting users to connect with a card reader when they use tap-related services.

  • The company will provide card readers to merchants and resellers after confirming their phone conditions.

  • Tap animations are crafted using Illustrator and After Effects, then exported as a Json file through Lottiefiles.

  • The app will seamlessly switch to the 'tap card to reader' animation when detecting that users' phones lack NFC technology.

Reflection

As a designer, I was really excited to be part of this project and explore the fascinating world of tap technology. Unfortunately, the company decided not to go ahead with the project for various reasons. If it does launch in the future, my next step would involve understanding real users, gathering feedback, and improving the product's user interface and experience.
