"Optimize Facebook Marketplace Page to Mobile Shopping App"

Market Place is a Facebook page buying and selling used stuff. Although this page is strongly activated based on a large number of Facebook members, it is highly inconvenient for shopping. In this project, I'll optimize the Marketplace page to mobile shopping app so that users can have a better experience during the buying and selling process.

Screen Breakdown

Mood Board

The bright blue and yellow color feels like clear skies and sunshine. Users can feel like It’s time to let go of those used goods and start something new. With this feeling, Marketplace helps users make a pleasant shopping.

Conclusion

 Marketplace page is strongly activated based on a large number of Facebook members. However, this page isn't optimized for buying and selling in used stuff and this causes inconvenience to users. By building a mobile app with proper functions for shopping,  reliable evaluation and transaction system,  I expect users to shop with convenience and trust.
