Onboarding & Error State Design Added contextual illustrations + tooltips to onboarding screens and empty states across iOS/Android apps + website. Designed first-time user experiences enabling seamless service access while optimizing for low-bandwidth conditions (error screens + content loading optimization).
Design System Evolution & Launch Maintained and evolved scalable design system + documentation, reducing team cognitive load and eliminating design debt. Successfully launched Music Club iOS/Android apps in August 2018 — available for download in App store and Google Play.
Service Evolution Music Club began as web-based music streaming with unlimited mobile downloads across devices. Redesigned website to match native iOS/Android app feature parity, ensuring seamless cross-platform experience (responsive across all screen sizes). Website later suspended by Kyivstar; service now exclusively app-based with live App Store/Google Play availability.
