‍Role

Product design and brand design for music app with recognition technology to determine the user's musical taste.

Goals

The Sounds app aims to provide users with a personalized music listening experience tailored to their moods and preferences. By allowing users to create playlists based on their spirits, Sounds seeks to help users find the perfect music to match their current state of mind.

As music lovers ourselves, the team behind Sounds recognized that listening to music is an intimate and personal experience. We wanted to create an app allowing users to find the perfect tune to match their moods and preferences rather than randomly shuffling through songs.

To achieve this, we developed a recommendation algorithm that considers the user's mood, listening history, and music preferences to provide personalized music recommendations. We also added the ability for users to create playlists based on their moods, as this would help users find the right music for any given moment.

Here are some other key goals:

✦ Improved recommendation algorithm: Sounds could aim to improve its recommendation algorithm to provide users with more accurate and personalized music recommendations based on their mood and listening history.

✦ Social features: Sounds could introduce features that allow users to share their playlists and discover new music through friends and connections.

✦ Music discovery: Sounds could focus on improving its music discovery capabilities by introducing features such as curated playlists and personalized radio stations.

✦ Personalization options: Sounds could offer more personalization options to allow users to customize their listening experience, such as the ability to adjust the app's visual theme or change the background image.

✦ Improved search functionality: Sounds could aim to improve its search functionality to make it easier for users to find specific songs or artists.

✦ Offline listening: Sounds could offer offline listening capabilities to allow users to listen to music even when they don't have an internet connection.

To make the app as user-friendly as possible, we focused on creating a simple and intuitive interface that would be easy for users to navigate. We also included a diverse selection of music from various genres and artists, so users could discover new music and expand their musical horizons.

Another goal of Sounds is to provide a simple and intuitive user interface that makes it easy for users to navigate and find the music they want to listen to. The app also aims to be lightweight and efficient, not drain the battery or consume too much data.

After presenting the concept of the Sounds app, we were thrilled to see the app gain popularity among music lovers looking for a personalized and mood-based listening experience. The combination of our recommendation algorithm, customized playlists, and diverse music selection helped attract and retain a large user base.

We were also pleased that users enjoyed the app's user-friendly interface and efficient design. The positive reviews and word-of-mouth recommendations from our users played a significant role in helping us to attract new users and increase brand awareness.
