There are many music players out there, but I decided to design a new one because I was frustrated with some of the functional elements within my current music players. Since most are used on mobile, I wanted to make sure that I was still receiving the same information on a phone as I would on desktop.
Things like: Band Name, Song, Album, Album Cover, Song Length, Time Remaining, Pause, Play, Go Back, Skip, and Shuffle.
The Solution
The final design after doing competitive analysis, low-fi wireframes, axure prototype to test, and visual and functional modifications for improved performance.
Research/Ideation
I spent time looking at and evaluating music players from:
Google Music Player
Amazon Music Player
IOS Music Player
Pulsar Music Player
The initial concept I created gives some of the initial product architecture scaffolding in a lo-fi wireframe.
The initial lo-fi design I created and tested using Axure.
