Defining the issue
Overview
based on my research I found that 80% of people had a bad experience with renting car, and just 20% of them thinking in renting car again.
Some of the common issues represented in the delay which takes 7-30 working days, also the car’s report that doesn’t include all the car flaws before renting. Additionally, the issue of users and service provider rights which are not usually clarified for each part.

User Interface
Design that speaks before users click
After an extensive journey of user experience research and analysis of user behaviors and preferences, I began implementing the designs for new features to create a cohesive experience that users enjoy and find valuable.

The look and feel of the application are intentionally simple, easy to navigate, and focused on the key elements that matter most to the user.

The Outcome that Speaks...

🔎 Understanding User Pain Points

From interviews, I found that 80% of users faced issues while renting cars, and the same percentage said they would avoid renting again if the experience didn’t improve.

🧐Transparency Gap

I learned that 50% of users weren’t aware of their rights until a problem happened, which highlighted the need for better transparency and education in the process.

🧭 Usability Insights

Usability testing revealed that users struggled with navigation (confused between Home and Profile) and searching for cars, while also asking for real-time tracking and notifications.

🎨 Design Improvements

Based on these insights, I redesigned the navigation to prioritize the most-used pages (Home, Explore, Help, Profile) and updated the profile screen to show essential information first.
