Sign-up and user profiles

The platform welcomes users with a sign-up/sign-in screen, allowing them to join as club admins or registered users or browse events as guests. We ensured the sign-up was smooth and fast with a simple form and third-party sign-in options. As a result, the conversion rate for sign-ups reached 14%.

User profiles are at the heart of driving the platform’s social features. In line with user expectations, we added the photo upload for profile pictures and ensured user profiles were easy to update. Account management was also made frictionless, with the time on task for associated user flows reduced by 27% throughout design iterations.

Club pages

Before club admins can create events, they need to create a page for their club. This page powers community engagement with reviews, posts, and a photo gallery — and, of course, upcoming events put front and center on the club page. Users can easily join or follow a club, just like on any other social media platform.

We designed these social features to be instantly recognizable and, therefore, intuitive. This drove engagement on the platform, allowing it to secure an 81% engagement rate among early users.

Sports events

With Idemo, club admins can create events and invite other clubs to join them. We made creating an event as easy as possible with a simple form validating information, supporting autofilling, and containing both required and optional fields.

The event page contains the description, location, dates, and pricing. Users can comment on events, send participation requests, and share and save events they’re interested in.

Our user flow optimizations for event creation resulted in a 92% task success rate for the corresponding processes. Event browsing and commenting, in turn, were met positively by early users, contributing to an 87% user satisfaction score.

Built-in messaging

To foster social interactions, Idemo also offers a full range of messaging features with support for both direct messaging and group chats. So, users can chat with other club members or admins, be it to discuss an upcoming event or pose questions about the club itself.

We designed the interface for the built-in messenger, considering user expectations and workflow conventions. At the same time, we believed that the messenger could be used by people with varying digital skill levels. This enabled us to achieve a 95% task success rate for associated processes.

Accommodation booking

As our client’s research showed, sports event participants often struggle with finding accommodation. With Idemo, however, club admins and members don’t have to spend hours looking for the best offer possible.

The platform displays available accommodation options offered by the event’s organizers right on the event’s page. Therefore, booking is a matter of a couple of clicks. This removes a key pain point for users, especially where international events are involved.

Feed and search

Once logged in, registered users can browse a feed that showcases the latest posts, events, and other activities of the clubs they’ve joined or followed. Thanks to this feed, users can stay on top of the latest updates of their clubs, along with new events. This drives user engagement even further, increasing the average session duration in the process.

To help users find their next sports event, we implemented a semantic search with a location filter. During the final rounds of testing, users praised this streamlined search for its simplicity and intuitiveness. Search results can also be narrowed down with filters for the event type, dates, category, and more.

LLC Darly Solutions are highly skilled at UI/UX and follow very good engineering standards, and have been very professional in its approach to all the work to date (including the initial consultancy, which was the deciding factor). They have taken ownership of the work in way that demonstrates how much they value the work they are doing and consequently the work we are doing. I am gaining confidence that the decisions they make are good decisions and that this will result in a product that will exceed our initial expectations.

Darly Solutions developed the app in a quick manner, and the code quality was excellent. The professional team was committed to building a successful product. The code quality was good, and the app has been built in a little more than 1 month, which is a result I'm very happy with. They were laid back but professional at the same time.
