✨ How are you liking the refreshed #Singpass app? ✨
As Singpass grew as an identity platform, with more services, information and features available through the app, the app's visual language and direction needed a refresh 💫
🧠 The Digital IC was designed to be skeuomorphic – resembling our physical IC – to befit the mental model users already have with physical cards.
📱The team also reviewed the app's information architecture with end-users and moved valued features to the homepage.
🤔 Ever wondered how the team came up with the current scalable and sleek design?
