PREFACE
I have always been fascinated by what computers enabled you
to do. Back then, and even now. It all began with drawing
stick figures on Microsoft Paint when I realized this is the
environment I want to make my home.
Having used a ton of software since then, I’d always imagine
how a piece of feature or software would look if I changed
a few things, how some things were not convenient to work
with if there’s an option to solve the issue? I was always
exploring new things, and finding out hacky ways to get
through and reshape what I was given. Little did I know this
could be my profession and area of expertise in years to come.
Initially, I didn’t know what it was to be a designer, what’s the
point in making things pretty. What impact can you possibly
have? These were questions I wanted answers to and what I
learned with time was simple; yet complex. Design is not just
about making things pretty. Designs have an influence. It
can manipulate. The future of our global society relies on the
design decisions we make today.
There an emergence of a
more caring and design aware
21 st century society. This has
led to enormous changes in
the world of design. There
is a value for better visual
communication.
Experience Design is what I have handpicked for myself after
experiencing and working along in various multidisciplinary
fields of communication design.
Why do people often go to computer systems? They want
you to make them feel things, they want it to be part of their
emotions. Talking to your loved ones on a video calling app,
or playing a game on your smart-phone, all of this involves
you feeling something towards the product.
Emotion is part of being human. And this is not a new thing.
In fact, within the user interface community in ISO 9241
(originally published in 1998) it talks about 3 crucial issues
in the user interfaces. One of them being ‘Satisfaction’ - Does
it make you feel good? Does it make you happy when you
use a piece of system or software?. This was often ignored
or missed in the past, but now the tables have turned. It has
perhaps become the most important.
Experience clearly matters
And I’d like to be someone who is in the game of designing
and delivering them to users. I want to do this by designing
digital products that meet the user’s needs, are efficient in
functioning, and also more importantly satisfy the user.
So when I got an offer for Graduation Project from Quiph,
a well-funded startup in the heart of Bangalore, I was more
than excited to take it up.
The first meeting with the team & the product itself
reinforced the fact that they were building a product with
a scalable potential in the current market along with user
experience and designs that are well thought and polished.
Designing and revamping a very promising product with
new features and visual design is what kept my inspiration
up. With every build, I could see my designs coming to life
and that real users are going to experience my work on their
devices. And that was all I needed to know.

DEPARTMENT OF
FASHION COMMUNICATION
NATIONAL INSTITUTE
OF FASHION TECHNOLOGY
राष्ट्रीय फै शन प्रौद्योगिकी सं स्ान
Set up in 1986, NIFT is the pioneering institute of fashion education in the country and has been in the vanguard of
providing a professional human resource to the textile and apparel industry. It was made a statutory institute in 2006 by an
Act of the Indian Parliament with the President of India as ‘Visitor’ and has full-fledged campuses all across the country.
Over the years NIFT has also been working as a knowledge service provider to the Union and State governments in the area
of design development and positioning of hand-looms and handicrafts.

In the ever-growing world of fashion, the Fashion
Communication (FC) design program at NIFT happens to be
the single most cutting-edge, exciting, and increasingly essential
pathway to open up in the fashion and lifestyle industry. The
significance of brand identity has come to be seen on par with
what the brand sells i.e., the product. Numerous prêt and
luxury brands keep appearing in the Indian retail scenario,
and it has become essential for each one of them to develop
a unique brand identity for maximum impact and visibility.
Fashion Communication has made it feasible for these brands
to communicate their products, identity, and strategy, by
providing a platform for these very brands.
The Fashion Communication program primarily focuses on
four major domains i.e., Graphic Design, Space Design, Fashion
Media and Fashion Thinking, and the related genres of these
major areas, using hand and digital skills through knowledge,
application, and practice-based approach.

Project Timeline
The whole array of projects were executed in a span of 19
weeks. Revamping the interface, interactions, and experience
of Incoming Call was the major project during this period.
4 other projects listed below were also integrations of the
incoming call experience and hence have been depicted
flowing down to the base project after the individual projects
were approved. Apart from this, there were 2 other Individual
projects done one of which was to design an animation for
Qtalk’s web platform and the other being a page where users
can switch their default call screen animations.

Design Framework
Having a proper design process and framework is very
important when working as a team of designers, developers,
product managers, and other stakeholders. At Quiph, a
combination of design thinking, Lean UX, and Agile UX is
followed.
Design thinking helps to ensure that the solutions proposed
are researched and confirmed of increasing customer
satisfaction. This aims to bring a strong user-centered
approach to design.
With Lean UX we implement the right solutions and learn
and measure its impact from user response and feedback. We
assess if the new feature or service we have made available
to the users brings real value to them. This process helps us
reduce the product development cycle by making it easy
to execute a combination of business-hypothesis-drivenexperimentation,
iterative product releases, and validated
learning. The feedback and new ideas that we then receive for
a successful feature are then added to the product backlog list
which we execute in the next stage. Lean UX also works great
for us since our product plan and roadmaps are well defined.
In this stage, it is transferred to an Agile UX environment
which is an excellent way to incrementally deliver solutions
and iterations. This is done with the product backlogs we
get from the Lean UX phase and we plan design sprints to
implement those changes and then the sprint results are
reviewed. This cycle continues with the continuous inflow
of user feedbacks and reviews from the previous sprint which
enters the backlog list for the next sprint.
Most of the work I’ve done at Quiph exists in the Lean UX
and the Agile UX framework since the requirements were
already planned and were left for execution.

INCOMING
CALL

KOKKADAN ASHWIN FASHION COMMUNICATION GP2020

Incoming Call
Brief: To redesign the incoming call experience and
interaction based on market survey and user needs. The goal
was to provide users more control & choice right on the
incoming call screen.
Understanding Drupe (Competitor analysis)
Work Flow
The interface shown above is of “Drupe Caller’ an app that
exists as one of our rare competitors. Drupe currently comes
out as a very outdated app in terms of its UI and experience.
But there were still some aspects of Drupe that seemed to
have potential. One of them was the incoming calling screen.
The idea here is to have extra functions added to the primary
functions of accepting or rejecting a call dynamically based
on the user input. But the experience turned out to be
terrible as the user had to pull their fingers till the corners
of the screen to access those functions. This definitely can
be a result of poor user testing or gamifying the experience
too much. From the majority of the user’s POV, we believe
that a phone call is something people want to pick or deny
as easily as possible, as quickly as possible, and enhancing
that experience shouldn’t come with making them put way
more efforts than what is needed. So we wanted to welcome
this idea of being able to introduce sub-functions based on
a primary function and still keeping their user experience as
easy and simple as it is in any incoming call interactions out
there.

Design Iteration 1
Design Iteration 2
Design Feedbacks
• The geometric path the users has to follow with this system
didn’t come out very convenient.
• So then we planned if we can keep the call button a freely
movable button which can activate functions when in
proximity of their respective functions
Design Feedbacks
• Making it too loose & free to move can cause a sense of
imbalance and uncontrolled behavior from the button
because users are used to having call buttons which has
a guided direction to follow.
• Its a big risk to change something drastically in the call
accept screen because it’s something very time sensitive
and the user should be able to pick up the call right
away without having to think much.

Design Iteration 3
Design Iteration 4
We go back to design iteration 1 and re-iterate it to squeeze
out the minor convenience issue with the design.
Segments of Interaction
circle, it should have grown to a size where the small circle
now encompasses the call button completely with a small
extra space between them. This is valid for both the green &
red circle that depicts call accept or reject respectively.
3. User has the option to do a touch up gesture to simply
activate the primary function that they chose to go with
after which they are taken to the in-call screen or postcall
screen depending on their choice.
If they leave the button simply at the primary function (i.e.
Accept or Reject) or if they simply fling their finger up or
down then they are taken to the next screen based on the
function that they choose.
Follows a very intuitive straight guided path to perform primary function of accepting or rejecting a call. Add on features can then
be accessed through a curved finger movement, which is very natural for thumb movement.
This way we are eradicating the need to keep it very sharp and
geometric interaction and rather make it smooth and intuitive
while not making the button lose to be moved around freely,
but on an ergonomically designed finger movement. Our
initial logic was to track the x, y position of the user’s touch.
So till the accept/reject function, the system is checking for
the y-position and from there to the additional function, it
is tracking the x-position to decide where the button goes.
There were major usability issues with this method:
1. If the user drags his thumb to activate the button and
moves further in Y-axis while also moving through X-axis
then the sudden switch from the X-axis to Y-axis tracking
the button will quickly jump towards the X position of
users finger.
2. Alternatively, if we try to evaluate the movement with the
percentage of distance traveled on the Y-axis then the issue
is that if the user simply wants to accept the call and flings
upward then the button might move more distance than
it was intended to cover.
3. To solve this issue, more constraints have to be added to
tell the system if the user wants to go for the additional
function or not.
4. If the user goes too far away from the button then the
button should fall back to its initial state which will solve
the problem but will create a very bad experience for users.
Design Feedbacks
• The logic of this motion and path. Turns out its broken.
Though we can develop a feature that allows the button to
follow this path, the possibility where if the user changes
his mind to pick another option wasn’t considered in
this design. And when we do that we realize that its a
terrible option both in terms of design and feasibility of
development.
• Along with this another question comes up about the
performance required to run such complex functions
on android phones. With such a wider array of market,
there are a lot of phones with really small displays and
slow hardware in which case this feature will crush the
Incoming call experience for users.
• We also realized that this design takes up a lot of space on
the screen and devices with smaller displays will really give
trouble to users.
1. User does a touch down gesture on the call button
At this stage, they are being given the control to move the
call button on the Y-axis till the accept or reject function
is reached. Before doing the touchdown function users are
provided with moving arrows to indicate the direction in
which they have to interact (along with colors to signify
accept or reject). At this stage, the call button also vibrates
up and down (Notice that the call button is unique for
every caller since it is the avatar of the user that shows up
as the call button). When they do the touchdown function
the arrows fade and two circles with only strokes activated
are shown in place of both the arrows. And the up & down
vibration on the call button stops.
2. User Slides up/down to accept/decline call respectively
When they slide up or down respectively, the circle towards
which the call button is progressing, grows at a rate that
when the call button’s center meets the center of the small
4. OR user gets secondary functions to access easily after
which they are taken to the in-call screen or post-call
screen depending on their choice.
• This is a special function that they receive if and only
if the user takes an effort to slide the button up/down
towards either of the functions with the strict condition
that their finger is also in the boundary range of the call
button.
• If while swiping up or down their finger gets off track
from the bounds of the call button they won’t be given
with these functions.
• The only way to trigger this function is if the user’s finger
is in the bounds of the call button and the call button
has already reached either of the primary function.

Logic
• If they pull their finger up from a position where the call
button has reached the bounds of either of the Primary
function then the primary function gets activated,
regardless if the user’s finger is in the bounds or not.
If they pull their finger from any other position in the
vertical line without it reaching either of the primary
function then the call button is bought back to center and
the initial ringing screen animations will be played along
with the moving arrows. The same is valid if the user just
does a touchdown gesture on the button and then a touch
up without dragging anywhere.
• The only way to activate a secondary function is if users
fingers drag the call button and position itself in either of
the buttons. If users finger goes offtrack while dragging up
or down they won’t be provided with this option unless if
they choose to position their finger on the dotted green
boundary circle without pulling their finger up.
• Once the user gets access to the secondary function then
they have to drag their finger to left or right depending on
the function they want to activate. This movement doesn’t
have to be on a 100% ratio. The user should be able to
activate the secondary function easily by dragging their
finger relatively less distance.
• Once they cover enough distance to trigger the button it’s
color changes and has a white circle behind it to confirm
the selection.
• The user can choose either of the sub-function and pull
out or else even decide to not use either of the function.
This will happen automatically if the user pulls up from
anywhere in between both the secondary option and
outside their activate boundary.
• In a situation where the user gets the secondary option
and then if the drag their finger off track and ends up
crossing the delta/bleed area then they end up in the red
zone.
• The red zone is all the remaining area of the screen where
if the user’s finger reaches any of the secondary function
that’s been activated will be retracted back. They can only
have it back if the go back to the activated zone of the
respective primary function.
• Apart from this at all the selection stage a haptic-feedback/
vibration should be provided to inform their selection
non visually. These areas are when they touch down on the
button, reach accept or reject button, triggers a secondary
function.
Design Iteration 5
Here I have made few changes in micro-animations &
bought more design consistency since its the final iteration
before development.
Segments of Interaction
1. User does a touch down gesture on the call button
All the conditions in iteration 4 along with these
improvements:
The arrow design has been modified and made still to
adapt to the animated background (along with colors to
signify accept or reject).
3. User has the option to do a touch up gesture to simply
activate the primary function that they chose to go with
after which they are taken to the in-call screen or postcall
screen depending on their choice.
If they leave the button simply at the primary function (i.e.
Accept or Reject) or if they simply fling their finger up or
down then they are taken to the next screen based on the
function that they choose.
Else if the user holds the button there then right after
the shrink action from the previous stage the ring starts
blinking with a pulsating green/red animation based on
the primary function
The button also has a white border around it.
2. User Slides up/down to accept/decline call respectively
4. OR user gets secondary functions to access easily after
which they are taken to the in-call screen or post-call
screen depending on their choice.
Diagram explaining the boundaries to activate or deactivate secondary functions
All the conditions in iteration 4 along with these
improvements:
The small green circle has a green fill color that is at 0%
opacity in the initial state and when it is at it’s maximum
size its at 50% opacity and when the button is triggered it
becomes 0% opacity. This is valid for both the green & red
circle that depicts call accept or reject respectively.
All the conditions in iteration 4 with an a subtle haptic
feedback that accompanies the trigger to let the user know
they have selected the option

Reject Subfunctions
Once the interaction was ready, the next requirement was to
design the card view for the two reject based sub-functions:
a. Reply with a message
b. Remind later
Variations
This is where the previous framework was used to make a bit
more solid version of the card. To create variations for the
designs, the ‘Remind later’ card was used and the final design
style can easily be reflected on the ‘Reply with a message’ card
as well.
Wireframe
In the earlier stage, a wireframe was developed to get an idea
about the feature requirements and elements to consider
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF FASHION TECHNOLOGY
REINVENTING PHONE CALLS
36
KOKKADAN ASHWIN FASHION COMMUNICATION GP2020
37
Once the card design for ‘Remind later’ was finalised, the
design for ‘Reply with text was developed.
So for this, the program structure was changed in a way
that this particular panel stays there unless the user pushes
it away or press the send, save button. In this scenario, it was
important to consider if it still makes sense to show the red
screen with the incoming call details.
After quite a lot of discussions on different scenarios like the
repetition of calls back to back and similar edge cases, we
decided to simply notify the user subtly with a transparent
view that the incoming call has ended while still allowing
them to make their input.
UI that we chose to go forward with:
A contextual view of the card beign used while rejecting
someones call
Improvements
Once we released this feature and user-tested the same in
real-life scenarios we found that quite a lot of time when the
user is writing a custom reply message or setting a specific
time and date for the reminder, the incoming call usually gets
rejected by itself. And when this happens their card would
also go away as it is a custom view activated on top of the
incoming call screen.
It was pretty clear that this can become an irritating part or
create frustration for the user.
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF FASHION TECHNOLOGY
REINVENTING PHONE CALLS
38
KOKKADAN ASHWIN FASHION COMMUNICATION GP2020
39
Custom Notifications
Once the full-screen notification’s UI was ready the next step
was to design the custom notifications that appear when the
incoming call arrives when the user is using the device, or
generally when the phone’s display is on.
Variations
These are the final designs:
After proposing these designs with the developers we figured
that there were few limitations that android has set in terms
of designing the custom notifications.
Due to this a Proof of Concept (POC) was asked from the
developers regarding the below-given points:
1. Is it possible to have a custom height on the call UI card?
2. Need to confirm if all 4 buttons can be placed in the UI
3. Can we add moving elements for urgent calls, a long
intent that uses the masked rolling movement, or caller
ID details to this UI?
4. Can we add animations on the call accept or decline
button (Simple scale animation + Vibrate on the trigger)
Results from the POC respective to the above points:
1. It is not possible to have a custom height. The design has
to be in two height formats. They are: 1.) Compressed
view - 64dp height. 2.) Expanded view - 128dp height.
2. All 4 buttons can be placed in the UI.
3. Animations can’t be implemented in the UI so anything
that goes beyond the bounds will stay hidden.
4. Animations of any kind are not possible.
5. Cant have colored background elements, so the function
separator has to be removed after proposing these designs
with the developers we figured that there were few
limitations that android has set in terms of designing the
custom notifications.
The designs were the modified and finalised taking these
limitations into consideration

Call Intents
Brief: We have recently shipped a feature where one Quser
can specify the intent of the call and the other Quser can see
the intent of the call while on the ringing screen. This helps
in cases where a person is calling for an urgent need.
So there’s a definite need to differentiate normal calls from
calls with special intents like ‘Urgent calls’ ‘Work calls’, etc.
Research
How can we communicate emergency/urgency:
There are two stages:
1. Alert - Intended to grab people’s attention in an emergency.
(This stage is what’s important for us)
Understanding Alerts
1. Distinctly noticeable in the environment it is designed for.
2. Audible alerts should be very distinct from the background.
3. Visually flashing lights can shout for attention.
Work Flow
2. Warning/Informing - The message that follows after the
alert.
4. It is suggested to use 1 color for all kind of urgent messages
in an environment to avoid confusion

5. Visual alerts can also be provided. The literature has
reached a consensus on two main ways in which to provide
a visual alert before disseminating a warning message.
First, a signal word (e.g., “Alert”) can be displayed to let
occupants know that a visual warning message is to follow
(Dudek et al. 1978). The same research suggests that the
signal word, as part of a visual warning message, can be
displayed in a different color (then the warning message
and any other non-emergency messages posted prior)
to attract attention and ensure that occupants read that
signal word before any other information.
6. Additionally, a large amount of research in both fire and
other types of emergencies has found that flashing lights,
rather than static lighting can attract people’s attention to
an emergency (Nilsson and Frantzich 2004; Jin 2002).
Currently, many buildings are equipped with strobe lights
to attract people’s attention to a fire emergency in the
building. Strobe lights are especially useful for individuals
who are hearing impaired and/or cannot hear the fire
alarm or voice communication system.

Iteration 1
This was the first iteration where we concluded the important
information elements expected in this interface. So, in this
case, the first iteration serves as a rough wireframe.
Iteration 2
This is a much more fine-tuned version of the UI. Here I
have played with the positioning & layout of the UI. But we
also realized this, that the color red also collides with spam
calls. So we cant use urgent call priorities with the same color
scheme. It’ll confuse users.

Iteration 3
This iteration was developed after the update on the
background animation. And this is where it shows how we
can have a red or orangish background on the back for urgent
priority calls. And based on this I changed the UI colour
scheme for the call intent container.
Iteration 4
Here the contents are split into two hierarchy. This is because
as per user requirements that I’ve received, I’ve figured out
that there’s a lot more content that has to come into play in
the Incoming call screen. The problem with the same is the
visual clutter it’ll create if placed all together on the same
screen. For this purpose, we need to clearly define another
isolated area where a big set of information can stay. This
area on the top of the screen will be referred to as ‘Backstage’.
(a) (b) (c)
a. This is a version for to cater to the request of showing if there was any call history with any particular
incoming call.
b. This is a version where the same space can be flexibly used to show an urgent intent call.
c. This is the state of the previous screen when user pulls down the card. when they do that the intent
description is shown and hidden as soon as they leave it.

Incoming Call Animation
Brief: The user goal is simple. To make calls Visually more
prominent from a distance & help differentiate between call
intents. This is to be done by implementing strong colors
Work Flow
and bold patterns. The business goal on the other hand is to
attract new users into the app while they see it practically on
a friend/colleague’s phone.
Problem Analysis
• Handling strong animations become really tough because
it might definitely clash between the functions presented
in the screen.
• So in an ideal scenario the animations should not interfere
with the functional elements.
• What we require is a method to make calls prominent for
users visually. Along with this we want to build a Wow
factor in the ringing screen so that people will ask for the
app.
• Can we achieve this with a different method is another
question. Or can we somehow eliminate the interference
issue?
Critical Observations
From looking at the calling action very carefully, we find that
we can divide the whole journey into a few steps:
1. Call Rings
• Strong Visual Cues
• Sound
• Vibration
• Affordance in UI
2. User Interacts
• High Affordance
• Vibration
• Clean UI
3. User Accepts/Rejects
• Cue of confirmation
• Transitioning to call
Inspirations
This began with a search for different kind of animations that
can look really appealing and serve the purpose at the same
time. I really got inspired from bold typography styles with
modern flat UI colours.

Animating
Right after developing these, I began animating the same
using After effects. The animations that were finally developed
using After Effects were converted to .json format to use it
as a lottie file animation which is easy to plugin inside an
android environment and also has various control over the
same.
Details
In this design as we have divided our user interaction into
3 segments the animation molds itself to work best for each
scenario.
• When it is ringing, the priority is for the visibility of the
call even if the phone is on silent. The bright bold colors
help get visual attention of the user.
• The second stage is when the user acknowledges the
call. At this stage when the user picks up the phone to
accept/decline the call we can use the inbuilt proximity
sensor and gyroscope t tone down the animation into a
monochrome/Black&white version of itself to promote
high visibility and affordance of UI elements. This helps
reduce clutter or confusion for users while interacting
because of the loud animation. So at this state information
is prioritized over the aesthetic appeal. Additionally, at this
state, we will have phones vibrating at each goal that the
user achieves. For example, haptic feedback when the user
draws the call icon to the accept or reject boundary. And
another haptic feedback if they choose to select the further
sub-function on the Accept or decline options.
• The third state is simply the transition from the call
ringing screen to the in-call screen.

Social Media Survey
Right as we had a working prototype I did a quick survey
using Instagram to get a sense of public opinions and
reactions about the new feature and here are their responses.
Visual Improvement
We loved the response from them and decided to push
this feature and animation. But there were few tweaks and
adjustments to be done before. We fine-tuned the yellow
color in the animation to a bit more ochre/orange shade
so that it doesn’t affect the visibility of the white text UI
elements in the incoming call screen.
Performance Boost
This became more obvious as we shipped the feature into the
app and tested it on different devices. Mostly low-end devices
had issues playing the animation. There were frame lags and
the overall smoothness of the animation was stuttering. So
then I researched the cause for the same and how to optimize
the Lottie files. I found out two major points which decide
how performance heavy an animation is:
Based on this observation I recreated the whole animated
letterforms again as one single stroke and reworked on
the animation which gave us an optimized version of the
previous animation. The same was tested on multiple low
ends and high-end devices to confirm that it performed well
in all the devices.
1. The number of keyframe animation layers. (Still, layers
didn’t seem to be making an impact)
2. The number of objects being animated simultaneously.

Building the Animation Library.
Since everyone loved this feature I started developing more
animations to populate the whole set of options available for
the users. This came with studying and understanding the
general category of wallpaper or animations uses would want
on their devices. Again based on a small survey done on the
major target age group of the app i.e Young adults, I made
a catalog of animations that we will have to develop for the
app.
Other Animations
I developed a few more animations after this which you can
check out below.

Call History
Brief: Call history context was one of the most requested
features that we came across during our user survey for the
incoming call and their expectations about how they want
their incoming call screen to serve them. This feature can
be implemented locally based on the data from the call log
history.
Background Research
I started off looking around how a time of an event is
being shared in other commonly used social media and
productivity apps to get a better sense of what we as users are
more accustomed to.
Expected Scenarios
1. Incoming call from a number (that the user answered)
• The same day [Last incoming call: Today, 5:03 pm]
• Previous day [Last incoming call: Yesterday, 5:03 pm]
• Current week [Last incoming call: Thursday]
Work Flow
• Any date later than that [Last incoming call: 12/02/20]
Or [Last incoming call: 12th February 2020]
2. Missed calls from a number (calls that the user didn’t
answer)
• 8 missed calls in the last (Time Span)
• Time Span: Rounding off to the closest slot of time period
that is greater than the time taken from the first missed
call to the current time of the incoming call
3. Outgoing call to a number (that the call receiver
answered)
• The Same day [Last outgoing call: Today, 5:03 pm]
• Previous day [Last outgoing call: Yesterday, 5:03 pm]
• Current week [Last outgoing call: Thursday]
• Any date later than that [Last outgoing call: 12/02/20] Or
[Last outgoing call: 12th February 2020]
4. Outgoing calls to a number (that the call receiver didn’t
answer)
• 8 unanswered calls in the last (Time Span)

Output Format
1. Date
Last {Incoming/Outgoing} call: {Today/Yesterday/{‘Name of
the day if current week’}/{‘Specify date if that data is older
than current week’}}
2. Time Span
Defining ‘Current Time’, ‘First
Call’ & ‘Last Call’
When we get an incoming call from an unknown call or a
known caller, we reach to the log and search if there is any
previous history with this number. This can be an incoming
call, an outgoing call, a missed call, or an unanswered call. If
we get any of this particular category positive we decide that
we have to show call history in the incoming call.
Iteration On The Logic
• Implementing ‘Just now’ as the keyword for calls lesser
than 1 minute.
• Removing time details from calls older than one week
• Reformating the displayed date format into short form
(Earlier: 17th December 2020. Now: 17th Dec ‘20)
{‘Number of missed call’/’Number of attempted call’}
{Missed call/Attempted call} in the last {Time Span}
How {time span} works?
We divide time differences into various slots:
If {the first call to Current Time was in the last 45 minutes
(i.e: Less than an hour)}
• 8 missed calls in the last 5 mins
• 8 missed calls in the last 10 mins
• 8 missed calls in the last 15 mins
• 8 missed calls in the last 30 mins
• 8 missed calls in the last 45 mins
Else if {the first call to Current Time was in the present day
(i.e: Less than a day)}
• 8 missed calls in the last 1 hour
• 8 missed calls in the last 2 hours
• 8 missed calls today (If it’s under 24 hours, beyond 2
hours - but in the present day)
Else if {the first call to Current Time was in the current year}
• 8 missed calls in January
• 8 missed calls in February
• 8 missed calls this year (if distributed across months)
Else if {the first call to Current Time was in the previous
year}
• 8 missed calls in December
• 8 missed calls in November
• 8 missed calls in October
• 8 missed calls last year (if distributed across different
months or if last missed call is beyond the last quarter of
the year)
Current Time is simply as it says the time when the user gets
the incoming call (Get as in not accepting the call but just
when the phone rings.)
Last call works in the context of presenting the incoming
call and outgoing call time. It also works to get a positive on
the Missed call or unanswered call category. ‘First call’ makes
sense when we get a positive on the missed call category or
the unanswered call category while getting the ‘last call’ data.
Identifying First Call
1. Analyze if the last call is a missed call or an unanswered
call, if not then it’ll automatically check if it was an
outgoing or an incoming call.
2. If no then we don’t define first call.
3. If it turns out positive for missed or unanswered calls then
search backward in time to get a count of the same type
of call performed consecutively to that number or from
that number.
4. 4. Search until the chain of consecutively the same kind of
call breaks. Once the condition breaks, the previous call
that proved true to that condition becomes the ‘first call’
Further changes in discussion
• If to get rid of the ‘unanswered call’ distinguishing between
an outgoing call that was received vs the one that wasn’t
received
• If we are continuing with the ‘unanswered call’ feature
then we will have to change the term since it is confusing
for the user (doesn’t communicate enough of what it
represents)
• 8 missed calls since yesterday (if the calls are under the
last 23 hours but split between midnight of yesterday and
today.)
Else if {If the first call to Current Time was in the current
week}
Example explaining the order of priority:
1. Anuruddh calls Sagar twice but he misses the call (In the
second incoming call Sagar sees his history as 1 missed call in
the last 5 minute)
• 8 missed calls since yesterday
• 8 missed calls since Thursday
2. Then Sagar calls Anuruddh but he misses the call (In the
incoming call Anuruddh will see his history as 2 unanswered
calls in the last 5 minute)
• 8 missed calls since Sunday
Else if {the first call to Current Time was in the current
month}
3. Then Sagar calls Anuruddh again and then he picks up
(This time in the incoming call Anuruddh will see 1 missed
call in the last 5 minute)
• 8 missed calls since last week
• 8 missed calls this month (if distributed across different
weeks or if beyond two weeks)
4. Sagar calls Anuruddh later at some point that day
(Anuruddh will see Last incoming call Today: 6:00 pm)

Caller ID
Brief: We are introducing our caller ID feature for Qusers to
identify calls from unknown numbers. We need to look at this
differently from how apps like true callers have implemented
themselves. They show the contact name along with other
options as an overlay. Which becomes fairly annoying for
Work Flow
users after a point.
We would rather prefer to have that feature
completely integrated into our system. It shouldn’t come out
like an overlay object to users. Also, we want to bring delight
to users when they see us reveal the unknown caller’s details.
Background Research
The requirement we have is to integrate a caller ID function
to the incoming call screen. Before jumping into the
visualization part some basic research was done to understand
how similar products are being used by users to help them
identify the caller.
Ideation
The first question was how to integrate the Caller ID
data in the incoming call screen. It was also important to
aknowledge the incoming call animation running in the
background before we began thinking about the placement
of this element. An important question we came across while
developing the UI was if the 10 digit number that comes up
when the users receives an unknown call should be replaced
with the name in our database, or should the number be
kept as it is and the name to be shown below. How can we
show if the user is getting a spam call? How to make sure
that contacts like delivery partners and cab drivers dont get
marked as Spam? How many different categorisations can
be there? Can we also show credibility of spam reports? etc
were the other questions that was being thought about while
starting to develop the UI.
It started off with developing a rough variations of what all
possible ways can the UI be shown, to better understand our
options and then refine it eventually.
This is the interface the app true-caller (Market leader in
caller identification application) had. User opinions were
gathered about this particular product’s experience from
users who have been using it. And something common came
to light was the fact that it was a separate UI overlay that used
to come above their incoming call screen and hence it was
quite annoying for users having to first dismiss the overlay
and then having to accept the call. This pain point shot high
especially for users with older devices that had performance
issues or touch-responsive issues.
So it was clear that we wanted to go with a different approach
here rather than an overlay. This is possible for Qtalk since the
app itself is a call dialer and have control over the incoming
calling screen.
Apart from this analysis were made about the kinds of call
types and filters that come which can help users get more
context to an unknown caller.
One of the category ‘Spam’ is something that we observed
that was made out of good intention but ended up being
misused or confusing users to a point where relevant calls
like Uber & Swiggy partners was shown with a spam tag to it
which does seem right.
With this understanding, the Ideation process began.

Insights
There’s two approaches that we can take for the caller ID to
appear on the call screen
Approach 2: First priority for name and second priority for number
1. Once the system fetches the data we scale the unknown number
down and show the name big and bold as the primary information
2. We keep the unknown number as the primary information & add
the ID of the caller below once the system fetches the data.
I performed a user survey regarding these two approaches and other features of the app. Based on the data we
received from User Survey for Incoming Call Screen I reiterated on the call intent project because there was
a major need to re-organize information in a way that it doesn’t look over-crowded. This iteration essentially
brings a major change to the overall incoming call screen itself. Based on this iteration I’ll be developing the 3rd
iteration for the caller ID feature.
Approach 3: Name and number as two separate entity

Animation Switcher
Brief: The current Call screen animation switcher was
designed at the early development stage of the app and was
not very well thought of for future implementations. Now
since the app is being redesigned and that we are pushing
more features to it like animations of different categories
and moreover the increased quantity of animations that can
come into the scene makes it important for a redesigned user
experience for the same.
Apart from this we also want to think about a section where
influencers/celebrities can promote calls screen animations
inspired by them or their style which their followers can then
add/purchase and activate on their QTalk app.
We are also switching from offline storage of animations to
storing the .json files online
Features needed
1. New UI/UX that can adopt a larger amount of animations.
2. Categorization of animation
3. Group-selection ability
4. Unlockable/purchasable animations
Current design
Work Flow
Present design of the call switcher
Problems
1. We currently don’t have a categorization of animation.
2. Considering a lot of animation, such a scroll view can be
a little touch to approach.
3. Right now all the animation is active in this screen and
this brings more visual and motion clutter in the screen.
4. We don’t have any option to add new animations yet.
5. Multi-selection ability is missing.

Iteration 1
Iteration 2
Insights
1. Added categorization to the slider
2. Introducing two view states to this menu (Users can swipe
down to get to the compressed state and swipe up again to
get back to the card view)
3. Added the option to add more animations to your screen.
(The Qtalk animations have been given a new name -
Qmotion)
4. Buttons have been updated to match the new style
Problems
1. Although the two new view state seemed interesting
initially, turned out that it was more inconvenient and less
intuitive for users. It adds up more taps in the selection
process and we wanted to make it more simple to use.
2. Besides we also found that in the card view the upper
portion we have the background animation still playing
and it seemed to cause unnecessary distraction.
The problems with this design were asking for a new approach
where we can implement the new features while also avoiding
the inconveniences in the previous design and making the
selection process much easier.
Insights
1. Introduced a full-screen view
2. Introduced a new selection ring
3. Group-selection feature
4. Qmotion button has been pushed up since it won’t be a
frequently used option.
5. Users can tap on animation to view the animation in
motion. This reduces motion clutter
6. User can press and hold on animation to quickly see a
full-screen view of the incoming call screen with that
animation
This new approach seemed to be more promising and was
very much more convenient then the previous ones. Although
while creating it some better refinement ideas were observed
and implemented.
That brings the 3rd iteration onto this design.
This brings us to the second iteration which is a completely
different approach to this page

Analysis
1. Group selection is now also accompanied with the ability
to multi select so that the users are not restricted to only
selecting one group
2. There is a new ‘Info’ button next to the title where users
can get a simple guide to making the best out of this UI
3. The colour of the ring an dselection button has been made
to fit the primary colour theme of the app.
4. Selection buttons have a consistent sizing

Web-Share
Splash Screen
Brief: We recently introduced a web share feature where a
Qtalk user could easily invite a non-Qtalk user to try out the
synchronised features by using a browser.
Work Flow
How it Works: A Qtalk user can search for any contact on
his phone and if the contact he wants to do synchronized
activities with is not a Qtalk user then they are allowed to
send that person an invite link through SMS or WhatsApp.
On clicking this link the user is taken to a web experience of
QTalk through their mobile browser.
Understanding loading screens
The 3-second rule: Splash animations should be quick >
Especially if its a frequently used app then 1 to 2 seconds or
none at all if you can avoid it.
In our case, it’s not a frequently used app but rather more like
a function inside the app that they can use. The ratio of usage
also hence reduces. And besides, we cant avoid the splash screen
because its not a screen present for things to simply load but it’s
more like a waiting room until the second user joins the party.
So we need to design something that is flexible with its timings.
And something fun for people who have to wait quite a bit
until the other person accepts the invite.
The Grand Entrance: Simple, Bold and visually strong
Skeleton Screens: What are they? - A skeleton screen is a
kind of loading indicator usually used when a page has a
lot of content to load before it presents itself to the user. It
generally shows a low-fidelity structure of the page that you
are loading.
• Skeleton screens carrying animations that travels from left
to right (E.g. A wave or shimmer like animation) are seen
to be much shorter in duration than the ones that pulsate.
(Opacity, fade-out/in)
• Generally using a motion that is slow in nature helps
reduce the perceived waiting duration of a loading screen
than when a faster counterpart is presented to users

How can they help users?
Features to Advertise
Designing Vector Icons
Splash screens can answer a few questions for users:
• What is happening?
• What will happen next?
• Displaying new information like ‘Pro-tips’ every time can
make the waiting period informative and delightful for
users
• Video
• Doodle
• Shopping
• Urgent Calls
• Game
Additionally, we can also aim to make the animation modular,
so that we can add more animations in the future, and
rearrange the same as per requirement.
Ideas for each feature:
• Doodle: Pen, colors
• Video: Camcorder
• Shopping: Shopping basket, icons to represent two users
shopping together
• Urgent Calls: Telephone icon, a symbol representing
‘Urgent’. Also, make sure it’s not communicating as a
Spam call instead of Urgent
• Game: The gaming console can be used as an icon
Design Solution
References for Icons
Show animations that can advertise our service & features in

can show a new tip each time the user makes a call.

A combination of skeleton screen and splash screen which gives
users interesting productivity quotes from different personalities.
Shazam has played with the splash animation smartly by
transitioning the animation to its Shazam button, once the app
loads up.
Dunzo has a beautiful splash screen animation that also takes a
fresh look once in a while.
Duolingo has its mascot as the splash screen character with some
minor motion and liveliness to the shapes.

Iteration 3
Insights: Some of the issues we came across was that trying
to show the concept of multiple users was probably not so
necessary.
• Because a person who has been invited by his friend for a
particular task that our app can fulfill, then they’d already
know that the app is all about doing activities together.
the animation is happening in the background.
• Presenting too many information together will be
bombarding them with a lot of information to take in,
while the purpose of the screen is to make the waiting
period delightful or less boring for the user.Doodle: Pen,
colors
Insights: In this version we have updated icons plus an icon
for the upcoming music feature.
Apart from this I then thought of making another variation
where the logo can also be seamlessly integrated in the
animation.
• Besides we are also trying to show tips to use the app to its
full potential which will be a written text. So during that
short period they’d also focus on reading that text while
Iteration 4
Iteration 2
The same silhouette has been used to make the features in a 2.5D dimension.
Insights: At this point we realised that “Urgent call’ section
doesn’t really come in the same hierarchy of features as the
other one because UC’s are more of an additional benefit
over the calling features. The rest of them are all synchronised
activities made possible with QTalk.
Hence urgent call will be removed out in the next iteration
and will be replaced with synchronised music listening,
which is an upcoming feature in the roadmap.
Analysis: Synchronising the style of icons is very important
for it to look as if its from the same family. Some of the few
aspects that we can bring consistency is:
1. Same colour scheme
2. Similar/complimentary angles on object
3. Same stroke width
4. Same Corner radius on curves.
5. Same visual weight.

Iteration 5
Improved icon for video & revamped the doodle icon. Reduced unnecessary details on the game icon to match with other icons
Analysis: In this variation I’ve tried to maintain the same
brightness, saturation level and then developed a palette
with varying hue’s. This essentially gives us a multi coloured
graphical element that wont have the issue of matching every
single colour of all elements. This also helps make the content
a little less monotonous.
Final Animation
All the elements were individually designed and then finally compiled into one single unit to function as a loop

Caller ID user Survey
KOKKADAN ASHWIN FASHION COMMUNICATION GP2020
This is a survey designed to take user preferences on how they would prefer to see an
unknown caller's identification
103
*Required
Survey 2: Getting reactions on new features.
Brief: Owing to the bulk of changes that we’ve implemented
on the incoming call screen Name * I decided to do a quick user
survey while testing the caller ID function. So I prepared a
questionnaire to ask around about the same with designers,
Your answer
developers, and normal potential users.
The goal here was to simply get an understanding of what
they think about the new look and features, getting to know
if there is more potential to improve, if I have missed out on
some important factor, etc.
Results
Q1:
If your call dialer showed an unknown caller's name. How would you like it to be
displayed *
Shrink their phone number to
secondary data and display the
identified name as primary data
Keep showing their phone
number as primary data but
show the identified name below
as a secondary data
Q2:
19/02/2020 Caller ID user Survey
Do you like this UI for caller ID *

Q3 (Answers from multiple users):
• I like the glowing background.
• Can add a logo instead of identified by Qtalk. ‘Before the
call’ notification is a good experience which True-caller
provides.
• The name can be bigger. Don’t like the container behind
it. Might need solutions for longer user names.
• Would like to know if I received a call from this person
before. Notification of caller before the call comes in.
Location of an unknown caller. ‘Identified by Qtalk’ is
too long.
• Don’t really prefer the glowing background. Rather prefer
to have no background color or else solid colors. Show
the name of the spam caller. And then show the spam
notification differently.
• ‘Identified by Qtalk’ is too long.
• An additional feature that shows a particular unknown
number has attempted before. Or you have had a
conversation before. Post call feature to crowdsource data
about unknown callers.
• Ability to block the unknown caller right in the incoming
call screen.
• Prefers a colored background. The name can be bigger.
• Identified by Qtalk is too big. Probably just a logo is

enough.
• Spam caller name should be shown.
• The name of the spam call should be shown. I like the
background color because it makes me feel trustworthy.
Location data. Better if my last call with that person if
any, on which date and duration can be shown.
• Categorization of spam calls. Showing call history is too
much information to be shown on a call screen. Shouldn’t
be information overload but definitely a great feature.
• My sister used to purposely not save her boyfriend’s
number. If it gets shown loud and bright,...might become
a problem. I would like a location feature. Last called
feature for unknown callers.
• The number of people who reported spam is not needed.
The name is more important than the number. Name first
and number second priority.
• The name should be bigger. Brighter color for the name
container. Feels like the identified by Qtalk can be
replaced with the logo.
• Qtalk can be highlighted more. Can add a white container
behind Qtalk credits
Survey 3: Instagram survey for opinions design elements
There was two UI style that we could go with for the incoming
call’s interactive elements. So we presented the same to people
and tried to get their opinion on what they’d prefer the most.
Here are the two options and few of the responses we got
from people:
As can be seen from the survey, we received a lot of user inputs which helps us draw more clarity on their needs.
Based on this I have designed the 4th iteration of the project ‘Call Intents’.
This is a major change in the structure of the incoming call screen. And the structure developed will also reflect
on the project ‘Caller ID’.

Out of the survey responses of approximately 100 users we
got more promising responses about option A. Although we
realized it comes down to personal preference because people
were able to perceive the pros and cons in both the options
and that both the options were generally considered okay.
Hence we went with the one that just turned out preferrable
to most users.

LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Throughout the period of my graduation project at Quiph
I came across lots of new challenges and problems on the
requirements of the app and the overall functioning of the
team. These two learning points helped me improve my
design skillset and professional skillsets. These are a few key
learning points amongst a lot of other practical experience
that I acquired during the 19 weeks of work:
Mobile Usability which I found is a crucial part while
developing software and services for a mobile environment.
Understanding this aspect helps you better propose solutions
very specific and constructed for a mobile use frame and
practical situations of usage. It also helps you understand
how your product will be used and hence how to make it
easier for users to complete particular tasks with ease.
Edge Cases were something that came into play once the
features and designs matured in the development process.
These are rare situations that can cause an issue with the
user experience and the whole flow of the system. It’s very
crucial to identify and tackle these problems throughout the
development process because otherwise your product can
invoke a bad user experience or come out as a very immature
product.
Affordance is another important part while designing
the interface because it is crucial for the user to be able to
connect with the elements on the screen to its function
thus eliminating a stressful experience in understanding or
adapting the software.
Lottiefiles is an amazing platform that I came across while
developing animations for the app. It helps you handover
your After effects motion graphics directly to the developer’s
which they can plug in and control easily. The reason why it’s
important is that such a vector-based animation will always
be scalable and extremely fast in terms of loading time.
Assumptions vs Reality is a yet another important part that
I now always keep in mind while developing services because
I’ve come across a couple of scenarios during the initial period
of my work wherein I used to assume what the users would
want or use something and then it turned out to be different
because I assumed the user was me. This is something that I
always make sure to clear out first by discussing with others
in the team and potential users about their experience with
something and then synthesize a solution based on those
analysis.
Connecting Business Goals & User Goals is something
that has to be kept in mind while designing any new service
or fixing any problems. It’s given that the users should be
satisfied with the product you deliver but most of the time
when not in a practical scenario we tend to ignore the
business, their goals, limitations, and timeline. And these
things play as crucial variables while you start designing.
