Just think about the last time you used a map app for navigation in a new city. Were you able to reach your destination without encountering any problems while using the app? How easy was it? How did it make you feel? This is where UX designer plays a crucial role. The main goal of a UX (user experience) designer is to enhance the interaction between human beings and products. The product can be anything \u2013 a smartwatch, a website, or a mobile app. An interaction with a physical product like a toy also gives you a user experience.<\/p>\n

A UX Designer is the one who is responsible for researching, designing, and implementing all user experiences. Don Norman, a cognitive psychologist, and designer coined the term \u201cuser experience\u201d in his 1988 book The Design of Everyday Things. Norman became the first official user experience architect during his time at Apple in the 1990s.<\/p>\n

In simple words, UX designer focuses on 2Ws- Why and What and 1H- How of a product. Here why means the encouragement or motivation to adopt the product and the value addition it will bring to the user. The \u201cwhat\u201d factor means the task that a user can do with a product? Last but not least \u2013 how? It means the design of functionality in an accessible and aesthetically easy way. UX designer needs to begin first with the \u201cWhy\u201d before deciding on the \u201cWhat\u201d and finally the “How” to create products. In a nutshell, we can say UX design is a user-centered design.<\/p>\n

UX designer is one of the sought-after profiles and its demand is bound to increase only. CNN ranked it fourteenth in their top 100 jobs list, stating that the number of UX design positions is likely to rise by 18% by 2028.<\/p>\n
