Lock Screen
Purpose
Since the lock screen can be customized on the Android platform, a dynamic lock screen was created using various contents of Yahoo. In addition, users are provided with various images of high quality selected through Flickr and Tumblr acquired by Yahoo for free.Roll & Challenges
In addition to the project design lead, I actively participated in the production of proposals for business collaboration with partners and contributed to closing business deals. There were difficulties in the customization required to utilize Yahoo's products and contents as contents of the lock screen. I redesigned the info graphy for each product to fit the lock screen, and I spent a lot of time setting up the rules for how to edit the images to make them look suitable for the lock screen.Result
Yahoo proposed the lock screen to Samsung, and it was selected as a native app installed by default on Samsung phones. The live weather effect provided with city images was inserted on the lock screen gallery of the Samsung phone.Basic gestures
A gesture pattern was created so that Android users can use it as a gesture similar to the default lock screen, but it's more convenient and intuitive. We provided more information than the default lock screen. However, it's accessed without confusion and can be used intuitively.Use Yahoo contents
Yahoo finance, sports, news, weather, etc., are already loved by many users. It has been produced so that advanced content that has already been verified can be easily accessed on the lock screen.In addition, Yahoo used the lock screen as a promotional channel to induce users to download Yahoo's native app.
