Presto App Redesign
Presto is a leading social commerce platform in Malaysia that integrates eWallet functionality with a wide range of lifestyle services in a single mobile app. I joined the Presto team during the pivotal stage of the project — overhaul the mobile app.
I helped spearhead a full-scale redesign that introduced a new visual identity, restructured user flows for better clarity, and launched several 0→1 features including eKYC, food delivery, rewards, and the core PrestoPay wallet.

Problem
Users find the app fragmented and lacking credibility.
The research revealed that despite offering features users wanted, the confusing navigation
and "risky" visual design caused massive drop-offs in the user journey.
Problem 1
Outdated, cluttered UI and inconsistent branding severely affected user trust.
problem 2
Fragmented navigation and an overloaded Home screen obscured
the app's core value.
problem 3
Poor merchandising of deals and generic merchant visibility failed
to drive user motivation.
Opportunity
How might we elevate value and
improve the experience?
Modernize the visual identity with cleaner layouts
and refined typography
Redesign key feature experiences with clearer hierarchy and trust-driven patterns
Unify navigation showcasing wallet, rewards, and lifestyle services for consistent usability
Build a scalable mobile design system to enable faster development and consistent UI across features
