Five users participated in a remote, unmoderated user test created with Lyssna. Participants were asked to perform the following tasks while using the prototype:
- Create a new trip
- Add a plan to an existing trip
- Edit a plan from an existing trip
During testing, users were asked to enter their trip length as part of the trip creation flow, after which only the departure date was required.
This confused some users who expected to select both start and end dates on the calendar.
To improve clarity, users are now first asked if they know their travel dates—if they do, they proceed directly to selecting a full date range. If not, they enter their trip length and continue with a dateless itinerary.

The large plus button in the bottom navigation has two functions: Creating a trip and adding a plan. In the prototype used for testing, these actions were contextual and caused confusion for users.
To resolve this, I removed the button from the bottom navigation and introduced a floating action button. Tapping it now reveals both actions at once, making them available to users at any point in their journey.
