My team and our mentor after the project evaluation

When my team first introduced Syrenka, a fishing companion app, we received great feedback:

“You have put a tremendous amount of energy and enthusiasm into learning all about fishing, and it shows in the product.” - UX Expert Review, SWPS University

“A cool foundation for a good product!” - Participant, Initial Usability Testing

However, as I grew in my UI design journey, I noticed important opportunities to improve the user experience. The challenge? Turning a good student project into a well-designed, user-focused product that really meets the needs of anglers!

Key Problems

• Overwhelming login process with excessive pop-ups
• Disconnected features forcing users to jump between screens
• Limited map functionality for finding fishing spots
