It's Saturday 12:52pm in Germany. Time for new Testflight app.

I see more and more people with Memojis as avatars.

So now I am building Amoji (Memoji x @tryamie).

The idea is simple: you choose your memoji and a nice background. And then you save it to your camera roll.

This is also inspired by @fast's Fastronaut helmet idea :)

Documenting the design process at least a lil bit.

When looking for cool patterns I mostly look at these only.

Especially Pinterest and Zenly are such a joy to use. @julienmartin_

This is how I start designing usually.

1. Words → what do we need?
2. Components
3. A few screen iterations

4. Jump into Figma (I’ll just use the design system of @tryamie)

Very quick'n'dirty progression of the what it will look like.

Once I reach this stage I often jump into code. Playing with stuff on your device is the best way to iterate UX faster.
