Thanks for the feature, @verge!

Daybridge thinks it’s time we reimagined digital calendars https://t.co/1TwflYPEz2

I'm so proud of how far @daybridge mobile has come and I can't wait for everybody to get their hands on it!

What I thought good design was when I first started vs what I think good design is now 😅

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Golden rule of our design system: no boxes in boxes

The @daybridge design on the left was rejected for being too messy, complex and confusing. The design on the right was signed off after a feedback round. Design is a constant battle between complex/fancy and simple/practical.

Locations search on @daybridge iOS including Saved Locations! Rename and add custom icons to places you add events for often.

@daybridge We had to write a special Figma plugin to manage over 1000 different swatches to make this work seamlessly with any style and theme!

One of our most heavily used components, coming with the new @daybridge iOS design language shipping in V1 - really happy with how it turned out

Mini event types for @daybridge on iOS!

@Spike1478 Hi Maya, we changed a few things on our side. Could you head to https://t.co/YPYCYiiQ9S and try again? Thanks!

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

We’re nearly there 😅 Building Daybridge has been a long, long journey but the wait will be worth it. Building great product takes such a long time and I want to deliver on what we promised.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Another world-first @daybridge feature. If you've got a lot going on on particular days, you can expand or shrink them to see more details.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

You can collapse any days in Daybridge if you're away on those days, or just not scheduling things on that day.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

After vs before. The hierarchy of the page was confusing, it was unclear what the tickboxes were for. Sometimes you just have to design something, see what feels wrong, and then re-do it from a place of understanding. Will collect more feedback and make more tweaks.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Every search box in Daybridge is a command palette, so you can use it to find what you're looking for, and take quick actions.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Sign-in, sign-up and onboarding for @daybridge V1 are completed! That was an enormous piece of work touching the entire codebase. Only a few more things to do now before we can start onboarding the first users 🔜

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Just one (1) of these screens can take 3-4 hours to design. Building a big app is a time consuming, work intensive process.

[Kieran McHugh @kieranmch]

Feedback request! What would you improve about these screens? What do you like about them? Is the copy clear and confidence inspiring? Do you know what they mean, or are they confusing? 🙏
