A developer-focused, Remote User Testing Session of your mobile app or website, for $299

What is user testing?

User testing is a form of usability research where you:

  1. Give a person your mobile app and some basic tasks.
  2. Ask them to talk out loud while they perform the tasks.
  3. Sit quietly, observe and take notes about what is working and what is not.

In general, it is a good idea to regularly perform user testing to challenge assumptions and learn for real world experiences.

The current challenge

Right now it is much harder to run these user tests.

  • People are avoiding unnecessary travel.
  • People don’t want to stand next to or talk with strangers.
  • People don’t want to handle other people’s phones.
  • Many people are unsure how to screen share or record their iPhone or Android screens.

[the feedback video] was great, just the kind of user-testing session I would love to have more of but cant figure out how to run in the covid world.

Awesome feedback, thanks so much for taking the time to go through the app so thoroughly! This is super helpful to see you using the app and I basically agree with all your suggestions.

I really appreciate Mike’s thoughtful and detailed look at my apps. His experience always shines through his notes and video walk-thru. He’s particularly great at showing me blind spots and ways to fix them. Strong recommendation.
