What other areas and topics would you like to see case studies on? Do you have any questions about the Design Sprint process?! Let us know in the comments below! . Check out our previous IDEA -> Appstore video with OAK here: ruclips.net/video/ZgMG_OflDq0/видео.html
This was so helpful as I'm having to take the lead in my current internship in terms of the design sprint process. I was wondering if you had an example focused on a sustainability app or kids education app at all?
@@mellosheep usually you will find 80% of errors with only 5 testers. For example, in my last project, I had 6 testers and got so many valuable insights, that I needed to assess what is the most important to further iterate on, while others go to the backlog. At this point, the impact effort matrix I learned from AJS was very helpful. If you have the resources you can of course run more testing or interviews. There will be new learnings from every test participant. For this reason, I really love this stage of the design process :D
It would be interesting to see the handoff process with a developer. How designs are laid out, documented and delivered. Also how remote user testing is conducted. Thanks!
Yes please!! Would love to know how you set up the designs for "pixel perfect" implementation from the developers point of view. I always have trouble getting devs to implement stuff correctly
I’m actually a big user of Zero since it was released. I thought the first release was dorky but still useful. And when the new update came out, I was blown away and was wondering who made the designs. Congrats on a great job! I love Zero!
So I've been using Zero App for the past few months and I was always wondering who was behind all de Design and Experience. I was/am amazed by it. No wonder it was AJ&Smart. Thanks for sharing the Sprint Case of the app. ♥
Absolutely loving the behind-the scenes videos! Maybe you could also share with us some design sprints that started running roughly and how you managed to make it work in the end. There's valuable learning on seeing how badly things can go and how they can be addressed and solved. Great vid, thanks for sharing!!
Cool memo! Thanks for the feedback, yeh it's rare we can share so many insight but always really valuable when we can so huge thanks to the team at Zero! Will do, more coming up in the future!
This video is very helpful. As someone who's freelancing on her own, this has given me lots of insights of a design team and a design sprint. Looking forward to more of these!
YES YES MORE CONTENT LIKE THIS.................. Thanks, and we don't mind a little more details and insights into the process (DeepDiving), or maybe reading the entire process. This is valuable. Can we please have a video on handing off the designs to the developing team coz that's where most of the fuck up happens.
It was an awesome experience while watching the case study. I don't know exactly what UX process or methods do follow in the design industry. This video gave me some insights. Thanks for sharing it!!
Stellar amount and quality of work delivered in two weeks! Can you elaborate on the team and distribution of work to pull off the illustrations and the prototyping between Week One and Two? There's a fair amount of characters to craft on Day 3 in Week One, along with all those boards delivered by the end of Week Two. Excited to hear how the schnitzel was made...
Yes, how did you put together such a high fidelity prototype by day three? Was that an 8 hour Figma session with multiple people in a single file? Was there an existing design system/pattern Library that allowed for such rapid layouts?
Would like to know why your sprint questions begin with "Can we..." instead of "How might we..." Is there a specific reason? Do you always use "Can we..." or was it just for this project? When would you use one over the other? Thanks! :)
Hey! The 'Can We's' generate Yes / No answers that the Prototyping should be able to answer, the HMWs are used to generate discussion and get the team aligned on the challenges
@@AJSmart Got it. So in this case did you use Can We's because there already was an existing app built and you did not want to go too out of the way to make something happen?
Great video! as usual, lots to learn and contemplate. I have a few questions, that i haven't seen you guys touch on specifically about user testing! I know you guys use FB ad, reddit etc for testers but in the case of an existing app I'd like to know more about the users picked! 1) Do you guys reach out to any old user? 2) are they data driven and suggest by the client? 3) Is it worth trying to select users based on data they generate as a user? (i.e - activity levels, how long they've been a user, age, gender, etc) Maybe this much depth is a bit futile, (love to hear your opinions). The reason why I ask is, 'Growth hacking' touches on really understanding users in this way and the cross over from this level of user analysis and the design sprint is something i'm really interested in. Yet to read to the 'design sprint' so maybe it touches on this in there? This is a big ol' comment! thank you for your time!
Great video! Keep these case studies coming. It’s great to see y’all’s process. I would love to see a pdf export of that Basecamp doc you showed brief snippets of.
Hey Chris! Sure there'll be more out this year. We also have an Idea to App Store video with Oak. ruclips.net/video/ZgMG_OflDq0/видео.html Hope you enjoy!
Awesome work and a great informative video. I'm curious: were there more iterations done with the design after the 2nd-week sprint? How long did it to get to the final version?
This was a great video. Thank you. It showed us more of the collective, creative process of a team. It was very interesting. More videos like this would be wonderful.
It would have been helpful to see the key words like „user testing“ or „meeting with client“ written somewhere rather than just scrolling through a set of nice pictures. The pictures helped to see what a workshop could look like but it was repetitive after a while. Thank you for the Input nonetheless!
Your challenge was to improve the app (increase user engagement). What did you did you do to double check that this was the REAL challenge and the right thing to solve? Was this clarified earlier using design thinking methods (user understanding/empathy) before you started the sprint? Isn´t it essential to really get to know the end users before you jump into generating ideas? I know the difference between design thinking and sprints, but isn´t it a potential pitfall to jump straight into the solution (an app) instead of investigating different directions. As an (extreme) example: what if the best solution wasn´t an app?
Super amazing :) thanks for sharing. Quick question ... (and if it was answered already, I apologize) ... is the process then to do the Sprint for key insights on product (over the course of the week) and then your team takes those further learnings to make decisions and expands on it over the next month or so into the full deliverable to client?
Great Video Guys! I just have one question. Before you start the DS, Did you research/interview the client's team, to get a clue or a better understanding on the Big Goal and the Sprint Questions, or you just start from zero on day one of the DS?
Great process breakdown! Really informative. Makes me really excited to run a sprint with my team. Thanks Dee, you are awesome! Looking forward to more of these.
Did the Zero App team choose to lay off the " Celine " mascot initially designed by AJ&Smart team or was it a collective decision made in the second week of sprint? I wanna know if Zero App chose to make a few tweaks of their own after AJ&Smart team handed over the designs and prototype screens.
How do you make sure that the app is implemented the way it was designed? Do you handle the development or or you just give to the client? How do you conduct a UX/UI audit?
Thanks guys. Very informative and fun as usual. I wonder what do you do when faced with a challenge that needs creating an app from scratch? No existing map to focus, no nothing. Do you first design user journey and then make a sprint for each feature etc ?
Thanks for sharing. I have gained a lot of knowledge to improve myself. After the design, what was used for coding. Is this a native app or a hybrid app.
Hello! I have a question about the mapping part. I know we choose which area to focus but do we still prototype everything at the end? The whole journey? or just the map?
Hello Dee, Thanks for a such a super awesome video. I am planning to join my product design team soon and I am glad that I got to see this video. Keep it up. #peace
So for sprint 2's output, you did improve the design based on the feedback from sprint 1 right? From the development of sprint 2, did you start from scratch or did you just change what needs to be changed? Thanks
Great video for someone trying to get into design! Thanks! :) What software were you using dint the remote sprint session to collaborate on ideas? it is just shared world document? Thanks! :)
Nice video and process! I really like how in your Figma file you have a story of initial discovery as the first couple of artboards. Do you always do that?
I assume you don't do coding. If I'm right how are coding issues addressed during the process of app development? For example 1. when you and your client agree on a modification after 0. a sprint is carried out 2. and the devs start coding to change appearance and change processes in the back end, database, and front end 3. then they do testing 3.1. and while they are testing they find out that one of the menus just doesn't make sense after a certain step in the process? I'm not referring to this specific app but in general. Do you involve the devs into the discussion between you and the client? If yes then do you invite them after the sprints are done or maybe during so they have a chance to tell their insights?
Can you make a case study on growth? I think it would be great to show how you combine the design sprint with growth hacking. I know that John makes you read these books, and that you're recommending them. It would be great to see how you apply this ;) Love your content. Cheers!
To be honest, I tried the Zero app after watching this video and let me tell you the UX is somewhat on point but the UI is cramped. Though I'm impressed with the design process.
Hello,I just saw this video! it's really impressive. I am a beginner exploring UX design, do you recommend the sprint design method to a beginner building his first project?
Great one keep it up 👍 make more case studies like this really helpful. one question please, who usually participate in the sprint session? member of the product itself, ui/ux designers etc. cheers to all.
How many people design the prototype?. I noted that you have illustrations, does the illustrations are created also in that day? or are they from stock?
Hey, what's the logic behind screen numbering. - I number is based on total information architecture, and actions as next value (10, 10.1, 10.1.1), is it same/similar? or do you have any best practice to suggest?
13.24 ... IT would have been easier (and UI friendly) if you were to design the ORDINAL NUMBERS as: Fast number: 1 / Fast #: 1 ... instead of having the user read: "Your hundredandtwentyfith fast". An image is still worth a thousand words. ;)
To begin the challenge it was monthly active users, and usage times. So user retention and engagement. The app was already in existence and doing really well actually, but they wanted to improve on those key areas!
Fantastic video as always! Is Dee the new Britney? 😅 I have a question. I do freelance Product Design work, and I'm getting more clients than I can handle which is AMAZING. I have had some great results running workshops from when I was a full-time employee, but as a consultant, all customers who come to me already have a solid idea of what they want to build, they're just looking to make it more Usable and "Pretty" - because that's why you usually hire a UX/UI consultant. I know AJ&S has a very established brand as the Design Sprint agency, but I don't understand how you get those first clients to come to you (or how do you find them) at the right stage of the process. Any ideas?
Hey Nir, this sounds awesome! I would actually recommend you to change your positioning in the market. If you say you're a UI/UX Consultant, clients going to call you for that. But if you change your offering to be more product & strategy focused, clients are going to call you for that and not UI/UX work. I can't guarantee that works, but that's what I would do.
@@ProductJonas Thanks for taking the time to reply Jonas! I honestly really appreciate it :) What you say makes sense, it's a scary step for me to let go of UX/UI which is my bread and butter, but I udnerstand it's a step I'm going to have to take
@@AJSmart Sure, but leaving a Post It note on someone's desk (or worse still, their monitor), in my view, implies they're a) disorganised b) have such a terrible memory that they need a bright piece of square paper in their eye line to constantly remind them what they should be working on or c) both. Also, for brainstorming (😬 - I hate using that term and only facetiously replace it with 'thought showering' sometimes and refuse to use the BS term 'ideation' - and similar made-up, BS terms like 'futurality' 🙄 Do used in one of your other videos) product designs or card sorting architecture, they're irritating, as people often scribble duplicate ideas, or something unintelligible and then the f**king things are stuck to your office walls for days until you translate those ideas into a more flexible and useful format. It gives the business the impression that still faffing around with ideas and not moving on and they make the place look really untidy. We actually used them for our engineering team for a period on a kanban board and it was a joke. You couldn't see what the team was working on without walking right up to the wall and trying to decipher an engineer's scribble. Often the glue would dry and they'd then be walked all over the office or disappear altogether when the cleaner came in and started hoovering the floor. Just a terrible product. Wall litter. Get rid of them. 😀 /rant
We do! We record 5 user tests and use a combination of Zoom (to record), AppearIn (now called WhereBy to host the calls) and Marvel to showcase the prototype to the users!

This was so helpful as I'm having to take the lead in my current internship in terms of the design sprint process. I was wondering if you had an example focused on a sustainability app or kids education app at all?
How does the report look like at the end of the Sprint? Do you have any template that we can take forward and fill in? Thanks
more such case studies please. Also I am interested in knowing how many user were interviewd in user tessting ?
@@mellosheep usually you will find 80% of errors with only 5 testers.

I use this app as someone who fasts but always admired it as a UX designer... now it makes sense that AJ&Smart was behind the experience 😮
Ahhh amazing! Thanks for that kind feedback too!
Now I understand why I keep referring back to this app for design inspiration
It would be interesting to see the handoff process with a developer. How designs are laid out, documented and delivered. Also how remote user testing is conducted. Thanks!
Good point.... let me see what we can do
Yes please!! Would love to know how you set up the designs for "pixel perfect" implementation from the developers point of view. I always have trouble getting devs to implement stuff correctly
Yes indeed. Very much interested in the documentation part of the entire design process!
Definitely. I would love to see it too
I'd like to see this too
I’m actually a big user of Zero since it was released. I thought the first release was dorky but still useful. And when the new update came out, I was blown away and was wondering who made the designs. Congrats on a great job! I love Zero!
Cool thanks Michael! Well now ya know ahah! Hopefully it was insightful to see how the Sprint project unfolded!
More of this please. This, along with all of your content, is golden.
Thanks David, really glad to hear that!
Loved this video , really gives you a good overview of what actually happens behind the scenes. Would love more content like this !
Downloaded the app. Amazing thing I woke up today thinking two things. Learn about design sprints and start fasting. 😄
So I've been using Zero App for the past few months and I was always wondering who was behind all de Design and Experience. I was/am amazed by it. No wonder it was AJ&Smart. Thanks for sharing the Sprint Case of the app. ♥
Hahah what a coincidence Tamara! Thanks for that feedback too, glad you enjoyed both the app and video!
I just checked out the zero app to see the produce of the design made. And I was amazed and inspired.
Thanks Solomon! Great to hear, it's cool just being able to download it straight away from the bio link too!
Ohh my god! I just asked for case studies a few mins ago on your community post. Damn I'm lucky 🤣
Ahahah yeeeeeeeh. The stars have aligned!
ahahah I saw your comment too, so I was super surprised as well! Arent they awesome?? xD

Thanks 🙏 a lot! Gained a lot of knowledge! Very easy to comprehend
Thanks glad you enjoyed!
Finally we made a video not just about books eh?
@@jonathancourtney1175 yeah 😀
I'm here after two years and I can say ZERO is the go to app for fasting!
We love it 💕
This video is very helpful. As someone who's freelancing on her own, this has given me lots of insights of a design team and a design sprint. Looking forward to more of these!
I use this app on a daily basis and I always admired it being a UX designer. Loved to see all the work that went behind creating the design.
It was very informative and indeed a highly fruitful process taking an application to a next level.
Amazing feedback Abdul thanks a lot! Appreciate that, glad it came in useful!
Plz do more sprint design vedios...
Haha you'll see more in the very near future! Hope you enjoyed!
Looking forward to more in depth examples. This is very helpful alongside the other content on the Design Sprint 2.0
one of your best videos, make more of that
Thanks. Very useful to see the process.
Very helpful to see the process, as opposed to simply reading the theory. Many thanks
Very happy to see a new face from AJ &Smart! :) Good job! and yes, also interested to see more 'behind the scenes' content like this!
YES YES MORE CONTENT LIKE THIS.................. Thanks, and we don't mind a little more details and insights into the process (DeepDiving), or maybe reading the entire process. This is valuable.
Can we please have a video on handing off the designs to the developing team coz that's where most of the fuck up happens.
So glad I found this! It is neat to see the deep dive into the process

Awesome work and a great informative video. I'm curious: were there more iterations done with the design after the 2nd-week sprint? How long did it to get to the final version?
Hey yeh there were a few, we didn't cover that hear though but we generally go back and refine the HMWs and prototype then test once more!
This was a great video. Thank you. It showed us more of the collective, creative process of a team. It was very interesting. More videos like this would be wonderful.
thank you for sharing this :) ... next time more and more in depth please ! :)
Ok more to come! Anything specific you want to see?
Wow! Thank you for such a video, Juniors need videos like this sooooo badly (i do). have a nice sprint🤟
More content like these please,AWESOME!
Thanks more to come!
It would have been helpful to see the key words like „user testing“ or „meeting with client“ written somewhere rather than just scrolling through a set of nice pictures. The pictures helped to see what a workshop could look like but it was repetitive after a while. Thank you for the Input nonetheless!
Perhaps I missed it, but how many weeks did this sprint last? Thanks a lot for this amazing video, love u guys
Your challenge was to improve the app (increase user engagement). What did you did you do to double check that this was the REAL challenge and the right thing to solve? Was this clarified earlier using design thinking methods (user understanding/empathy) before you started the sprint?

Thank you! This is so informative, hope you make more case studies!
Hey yeh we'll be releasing more this year for sure!
Great stuff! Please, can you show more design sprint cases please?
Keep posting case studies, atleast twice a week.
Talking about fasting but in the video 3:04 a girl is eating lol very funny .
But still very helpful for new designers thanks for sharing it .

Great stuff is there anyway to download this slide show that’s being used in this video ?
This was great! It didn’t explain all the techniques they used nor explain what they did each day, but it was still very informative. 😄

Thanks a lot Mike! Glad it was useful!
Awesome ! Awesome
Great process breakdown! Really informative. Makes me really excited to run a sprint with my team.

Small presentation tip: try to avoid overusing filler words like “really”.
Glad you enjoyed the vid Sean and thanks for the feedback!
Thanks guys. Very informative and fun as usual. I wonder what do you do when faced with a challenge that needs creating an app from scratch? No existing map to focus, no nothing. Do you first design user journey and then make a sprint for each feature etc ?

Hey John, yeah we'll be doing more like this going forward! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. I have gained a lot of knowledge to improve myself.
After the design, what was used for coding. Is this a native app or a hybrid app.
Hey Musthag! Zero is a native app available on iOS and Android. A team of developers coded the app after the design phase was completed.
Hello! I have a question about the mapping part.
I know we choose which area to focus but do we still prototype everything at the end? The whole journey? or just the map?
Hello Dee,
Thanks for a such a super awesome video. I am planning to join my product design team soon and I am glad that I got to see this video.
Keep it up.
#peace
Thanks a lot! Hopefully it's valuable for you and your team!
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I have waited for these type of vids
We have a couple already on our channel! App To App Store with the Oak project and now this!
So for sprint 2's output, you did improve the design based on the feedback from sprint 1 right? From the development of sprint 2, did you start from scratch or did you just change what needs to be changed? Thanks
Great video for someone trying to get into design! Thanks! :)
What software were you using dint the remote sprint session to collaborate on ideas? it is just shared world document? Thanks! :)
Super interesting Video! And perfect length for the video :)
More of this please :))
No problem thanks for the feedback! What would you like to see specifically?
Nice video and process! I really like how in your Figma file you have a story of initial discovery as the first couple of artboards. Do you always do that?
Great, thank you!
Maybe include an emergency button for those who take it too far with fasting!
Thanks Archibald! Hope you enjoy!
I assume you don't do coding. If I'm right how are coding issues addressed during the process of app development?
For example
1. when you and your client agree on a modification after
0. a sprint is carried out
2. and the devs start coding to change appearance and change processes in the back end, database, and front end
3. then they do testing
3.1. and while they are testing they find out that one of the menus just doesn't make sense after a certain step in the process?
I'm not referring to this specific app but in general. Do you involve the devs into the discussion between you and the client? If yes then do you invite them after the sprints are done or maybe during so they have a chance to tell their insights?
Can you make a case study on growth? I think it would be great to show how you combine the design sprint with growth hacking. I know that John makes you read these books, and that you're recommending them. It would be great to see how you apply this ;) Love your content. Cheers!
Amazing video guys! I was wondering, what tool did you use for the remote usability test? and how do you do the handoff with developers? thank you!!!
Does it work for products who are not 100% already found the traction on the market and still pivoting around?
Great video! I have a question regarding the tool used to prototype the app as it seems it is not a hand-made prototype.
Thanks in advance
To be honest, I tried the Zero app after watching this video and let me tell you the UX is somewhat on point but the UI is cramped.
Though I'm impressed with the design process.
Hello,I just saw this video! it's really impressive.

Great one keep it up 👍 make more case studies like this really helpful.
one question please, who usually participate in the sprint session? member of the product itself, ui/ux designers etc. cheers to all.
We'd have a Sprint Lead / Facilitator, a Prototyper and a User Researcher / Tester generally. Plus around 4/5 experts from the client side!
@@AJSmart Thank you for the quick reply appreciate :)
Great information! Thanks Dee.
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it!

Fantastic insights, I love these design case studies! ❤️
Thanks! Glad you found it useful!
@@AJSmart With >200k Dl/month I've always wondered why Zero / Kevin R. doesn't use any monetization
Hey, what's the logic behind screen numbering. - I number is based on total information architecture, and actions as next value (10, 10.1, 10.1.1), is it same/similar? or do you have any best practice to suggest?
13.24 ... IT would have been easier (and UI friendly) if you were to design the ORDINAL NUMBERS as:
Fast number: 1 / Fast #: 1 ... instead of having the user read: "Your hundredandtwentyfith fast".
An image is still worth a thousand words. ;)
can you make video regarding mockups and their real time implementation strategy.
Thank you for the amazing case study!!!!!! What metrics were used to measure success of the new app? How did this new app perform after launch?
To begin the challenge it was monthly active users, and usage times. So user retention and engagement. The app was already in existence and doing really well actually, but they wanted to improve on those key areas!
Fantastic video as always! Is Dee the new Britney? 😅
I have a question. I do freelance Product Design work, and I'm getting more clients than I can handle which is AMAZING.
I have had some great results running workshops from when I was a full-time employee, but as a consultant, all customers who come to me already have a solid idea of what they want to build, they're just looking to make it more Usable and "Pretty" - because that's why you usually hire a UX/UI consultant.
I know AJ&S has a very established brand as the Design Sprint agency, but I don't understand how you get those first clients to come to you (or how do you find them) at the right stage of the process.
Any ideas?
Hey Nir, this sounds awesome! I would actually recommend you to change your positioning in the market. If you say you're a UI/UX Consultant, clients going to call you for that. But if you change your offering to be more product & strategy focused, clients are going to call you for that and not UI/UX work. I can't guarantee that works, but that's what I would do.
@@ProductJonas Thanks for taking the time to reply Jonas! I honestly really appreciate it :)
What you say makes sense, it's a scary step for me to let go of UX/UI which is my bread and butter, but I udnerstand it's a step I'm going to have to take
Could you share your process on contacting users for the usability tests?
This is a very useful video. Nice job. The only issue I have with it is all the use of PostIt notes. They're such a PITA. Can't stand them.
There are digital alternatives but for quick and mobile note taking they're really good. We always aim to recycle them accordingly too though!
@@AJSmart Sure, but leaving a Post It note on someone's desk (or worse still, their monitor), in my view, implies they're a) disorganised b) have such a terrible memory that they need a bright piece of square paper in their eye line to constantly remind them what they should be working on or c) both.
Also, for brainstorming (😬 - I hate using that term and only facetiously replace it with 'thought showering' sometimes and refuse to use the BS term 'ideation' - and similar made-up, BS terms like 'futurality' 🙄 Do used in one of your other videos) product designs or card sorting architecture, they're irritating, as people often scribble duplicate ideas, or something unintelligible and then the f**king things are stuck to your office walls for days until you translate those ideas into a more flexible and useful format. It gives the business the impression that still faffing around with ideas and not moving on and they make the place look really untidy.
We actually used them for our engineering team for a period on a kanban board and it was a joke. You couldn't see what the team was working on without walking right up to the wall and trying to decipher an engineer's scribble. Often the glue would dry and they'd then be walked all over the office or disappear altogether when the cleaner came in and started hoovering the floor.
Just a terrible product.
Wall litter.
Get rid of them. 😀

Great video! Keep up the amazing content!
Thanks Kevin! Appreciate that!
How did you do user testing? Like how do you present your prototype to the users? Which site was it?
We do! We record 5 user tests and use a combination of Zoom (to record), AppearIn (now called WhereBy to host the calls) and Marvel to showcase the prototype to the users!
Thanks Jonathan...😀✌️
You designed the first round with all those custom illustrations in 1/2 days?!
