Heuristic Analysis of an app I redesigned

1. Takes up a lot of space in the home
screen without adding much value.
Very small touch targets for important
features.
Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Does not clearly explain what the
functionality is.
Step 1 : Home

2. Requires the user to explicitly mention
the type of security
Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 2 : Search

3. Too many options to choose from
Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 3 : Search

4. These two features are not required
here.
Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 4 : Stock Info
The scales are hard to read and there is
no option for the user to change the
time frame.
These features are not optimised for
mobile and are not used but they are
present for marketing/business
promotion reasons.
Confusing toggle bar which adds no
value.
Gradient draws too much attention for
a not so critical information.
A spinner bar which is not used at all
and is distracting.

5. More information can be provided.
Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 5 : Stock Info
The button bar is overlaid over
important information.

6. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 6 : Stock Info
The colour coding does not signify
anything

7. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 7 : Stock Info ( Futures )
Does not specify the last traded value
and the volume of the specific futures
contract

8. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 8 : Stock Info ( Options )
No indication about what the strike
price is compared to the current
price.
This is not required here.
This is not required here.

9. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 9 : Stock Info ( Options )
Very small target areas
Adding a blue trade button to every put
and call option is confusing and
detrimental to understanding
Lists LTP, Chg, Chg%,
Price, trade button,
OI, bid and ask - 16
variables !

10. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 10 : Order Screen
Choosing one option does not disable
the options that are logically not
possible.

11. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 11 : Order Screen
Multiple dropdowns with no linking
between the two

12. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 12 : Order Screen
Multiple dropdowns with no linking
between the two

13. Task : Search -> Info -> Order
Step 13 : Order Screen
Confusing interface without any
interlinking logic between elements
