How our Design Studio and Vooks created an engaging streaming platform
This carefully curated, ad-free platform gives parents and teachers the peace of mind that their children are enjoying the highest level of quality screen time.
Vooks separates itself with slower-paced content that engages the child's mind to learn vocabulary, reading fluency, and life lessons while being endlessly entertained.

Design an intuitive, user-friendly and engaging multi-device platform for three user groups
Achieve Vooks Experience in different devices:
Phone, Tablet, Laptop and TV
The UI/UX design of Vooks was planned to be intuitive, attractive and engaging for 3 user groups: parents, kids, and teachers. A challenge for both the design and development teams, was to design for multiple devices: phones, tablets, laptops, and TVs.
Maintain a consistent identity and construction across the platform
by building a powerful design system
Design systems are an essential tool for better and faster iterations within a project. Typography styles, color palette and a custom icon library are a few elements that help designers create consistent flows.
Each design element is built as a component to reduce potential errors in future use. Thus promoting a systematic approach that will speed up design and development processes.
Main Objective
Increase the number of users to join the platform
Allow the user to relate and engage by enhancing the concept
“Storybooks brought to life”
Storybook characters are present throughout the experience across the platform. Some characters are combined with animated transitions to enhance the concept of storybooks brought to life. Icons also incorporate animations that help extend a more dynamic experience to all users.
Design a welcoming onboarding that promotes user engagement
We understand first impressions matter. The onboarding was designed to welcome users with a clear message on the experience that Vooks has to offer. It was designed to create a welcoming encounter and promote user engagement with the universe of Vooks and its characters.
🙂 Promote user engagement 
Create a customizable experience
Users are encouraged to personalize their profiles to maximize their experience. Users can edit their profile, choose their favorite avatar, create custom filters and select their interests to access the desired content.

Second Objective
Increase the number of returning users by improving flows and adding features
Follow a methodology that places the user in the center of the design process
Empathy helps the team understand the context, its users and their needs. To follow up with ideation, move forward onto wireframing and implementation.
This design process guided the design team in improving flows and prevent the user from leaving the platform.
Third Objective
