Project Overview

For this Mobile Audit Project, I had the chance to work with (only other) fellow design intern Kait on our own, self-led project! This project was proposed and led to us by our manager Jon Fox.





1. Background and Motivation        1. Background and Motivation           

One of the most common messages sent in Strava’s design team Slack channels is:

“Where can I find [x] feature or screen in Figma? If anyone worked on this screen or project, please let me know!”  

At Strava, with so many projects in various states of development, various Figma folders and files for all the different projects, and different teams owning different features, things get lost. 

When employees are looking for certain screenshots to use in branding materials, or for features to reference while brainstorming new ideas, it’s often a hodge-podge of people redirecting each other and taking time to dig through files, looking for the exact reference in question. 

Even I experienced this confusion as I was trying to familiarize myself with existing design patterns and visual guidelines in the beginning of my other project.



2. The Solution               2. The Solution   
           By conducting and assembling a full-scale audit of our Mobile App, we wanted to create a singular source of truth for all the screens that were currently on the platform, along with tracking relevant files and last updated dates.

So that’s exactly what we did: we made a Figma file split by “feature” pages for each overarching section of the Strava app, and added in features and basic prototyping between them, as well as our observed insights and suggestions* while capturing the flows.

*Unfortunately, expanding further would pretty much be sharing the full final product, which I cannot do due to NDA :(


A selection of several different features with pages audited and catalogued

Though audit this is not finished (and inherently never will be because change is inevitable), the hope is for this file to grow as a living resource for all to reference, and make one thing easier in the workflow of others!
