About the project

Phone-number sign-in

The big change was authentication. Sign-up and sign-in moved to phone numbers: you add a phone, sign in with it, confirm with a code. Simple in principle, but it meant designing every screen around it, phone entry, code confirmation, and the states in between.

Built on Litres' infrastructure

Selfpub is a separate product, but it signs in through Litres' existing infrastructure. I used my understanding of how that infrastructure works to design flows and mockups that were realistic and buildable, not just visually plausible.

A clearer profile

New features had been added, but the profile hadn't kept pace, so information was getting hard to find. I redesigned it so everything had a clear place and the added features were easy to reach.
