01 — The challenge

Banking is personal.
The experience should feel that way.

Financial apps bring sensitive details and high-stakes actions into a small screen. The redesign focused on making the important things easier to find, understand, and trust.

01

Trust at the moment it matters

Identity checks and money movement need clear steps and reassuring context.

CONFIDENCE
02

Less noise around financial data

Balances, activity, and spending patterns should be easy to scan without hiding useful detail.

CLARITY
03

One experience across every task

Core banking, card controls, security, and help should feel like parts of the same product.

CONSISTENCY

Design questionHow might we help people feel informed and in control whenever they manage their money?

02 — The process

From a clear brief
to connected journeys.

A focused design process shaped the app around core jobs, then used prompt-led exploration to move quickly into considered screen design.

The role of AI

AI helped explore. Design judgment shaped the experience.

Prompted screen generation was a starting point for visual exploration—not a substitute for flow decisions, accessibility considerations, or user validation.
