Feed Reader Refresh
4 of 5
A usability-focused redesign improving readability, navigation and one-handed interactions in a feed reader.
Problem
- Important actions and navigation competed with content, making common tasks slower to perform.
- Dense layouts reduced scanability and made feeds and filters difficult to navigate efficiently.
- Article interactions weren't optimized for mobile ergonomics, requiring unnecessary reach and precision.
Approach
- Improved visual hierarchy by emphasizing content, filters, and primary actions while reducing interface noise.
- Restructured feed navigation using a more glanceable grid layout and quicker access from the article list.
- Repositioned article actions around thumb reach, increasing visibility and supporting one-handed use.
