Tapply
Tapping into your network for solutions.
Tapply is a social networking application that helps you leverage your network to find solutions. Since users are going through trusted connections, this helps save time and eliminate guesswork when asking for or receiving help. Engaging is as easy as a simple swipe. My goal at Tapply was to explore new options for ‘engaging with requests’ and ‘creating a post’ experience.

Exploring new experiences.
Discussing business needs and previous feedback from the beta launch, we wanted to explore options for a different experience visually and interface-wise. The goal was to improve how users were engaging with requests and creating a post.
Simply swipe to show your interest
Messaging someone to show interest can be a hassle. With Tapply, simply swipe left to skip a request or right to show interest. This easy interaction saves time and increases the chances of helping others.
I simplified this request card for easier readability so users can quickly understand what kind of help others are requesting for.



Earn or set rewards for added incentive
Adding a reward to a request is highly beneficial as it motivates others to assist more quickly and efficiently. With money incentive, users are more likely to prioritize and engage with a request, ensuring faster and more reliable solutions.
We kept this feature optional for posts as not all users want to spend money.
Easily search through requests
Previously, the design lacked a search function. The goal of adding tags to the cards was to make it easier to find specific requests and quickly understand what each post is about. Implementing the search feature was a top priority in the updated design. This will allow users to quickly look for requests that they’re interested in helping with.


Next Steps & Learnings
This was a great project to work on! Updating the UX and UI of the current product was a lot of fun. There was positive feedback from usability testing, the UX demonstrated clearer navigation and hierarchy of information. Visually, it was more clean and modern.
For next steps, the current product doesn’t yet have a filter function. I’d really like to implement this as a function so it can be easier for users to narrow down specific types of requests that have rewards.
