Overview

The work mapped the end-to-end BeReal user experience, benchmarking engagement behaviors and producing a prototype growth feature. Deliverables included a five-stage user journey that recorded key behaviors, pain points such as an empty feed and waiting for friends, and moments of delight like capturing daily photos.
