The Timesheet app is a user-friendly mobile application designed to simplify the process of recording and managing work hours. It caters for professionals and freelancers with features focusing on clocking in/out, multiple jobs, different work hours, real-time reporting, tracking breaks, and overtime with different pay rates.

Problem

Traditional timesheet management is often manual, time-consuming and error-prone. Employees struggle with accurately and efficiently recording and tracking work hours, breaks, overtime, and earnings.

Solution

Design a user friendly app that acts as an efficient, accurate, and accessible tool for recording work hours, breaks, overtime, and view earnings.

Process

Persona

Paper First

Carefully crafting multiple paper iterations of each screen in the app was an essential step in guaranteeing that our digital wireframes would effectively address user pain points. 

Wireframes

Initial screen designs were based on feedback and findings from user research.

Low-Fidelity Prototype

Utilizing the finalized digital wireframes, I crafted a low-fidelity prototype with a primary emphasis on the user flow for clocking in and out, as well as manually entering hours. This prototype serves as a pivotal tool for upcoming usability studies. Additionally, features enabling users to input pay rates and access earnings were integrated to enrich the prototype's functionality and usability.

Usability Studies

I conducted two rounds of usability studies to refine the design process. The initial study informed the transition from wireframes to mockups, while the second study, employing a high-fidelity prototype, pinpointed areas requiring refinement in the mockup stage.

Round 1 findings

Round 1 findings

Users need a more efficient way to navigate between app services

Users need a function to add overtime and breaks for shifts

Users need better cues on how to add entries

Round 2 findings

Need to improve accessibility for the navigation bar

Need to incorporate a back button on all screens

Design System

Hi-Fidelity Prototype

The final high-fidelity prototype delivered refined user flows clocking in and out, work hour tracking including breaks and overtime, and viewing earnings.
