Current Profile Menu Structure


After analyzing the structure, found below issues.
Research
The first thing that comes to mind is, we see dropdown menus everywhere. But what makes a good dropdown?
To understand this, I researched the popular websites/Softwares dropdowns and analyzed the Meural partner websites and apps.


After research, found multiple missing items
Missing legal information links, as the website is “Footer less”
No links to download the mobile app
Notification items such as Schedules and invites are missing.
No proper explanation of Membership
Missing device, event, and user-related actions
No links to subscribe to a newsletter
Affinity Mapping - Category Prioritization
To organize and prioritize the information from research, Actionable items are divided into six categories.
- User
- Content
- Device
- Events
- Support
- Information
Categories are prioritized with (A-Z) With A is highest


Affinity Mapping - Category Content
After category prioritization, the next step is to find the useful actionable elements for each category, to do this we used Affinity mapping and card sorting.

Wireframes


I created two options for it, one with tabs and another is a single-page solution.
Design


The tab solution was finalized and we created the visual design of it.
