Friction Points 💥

Complicated Navigation: If there are too many steps or the setup is confusing, users might find it hard to get started.

Too Much Information: Showing too many features or details at once can overwhelm users. Keeping it simple can help hold their attention.

Unclear Purpose: If it’s not obvious why the app is useful, users may lose interest and stop using it.

Design Rationale 💡

The onboarding design is simple and elegant. It warmly welcomes users and immediately shows the app’s value. The screens, with clean colors and easy-to-read text, guide users through just a few quick steps, making the first experience with the app easy and visually appealing.
