Product Owner / Lead Designer
Redesigning a beloved language learning app.
Following a paradigm shift for the Mango Languages brand, I took the lead in redesigning Mango Languages across all platforms. Throughout the year-long project, we shipped incremental updates to the app all the while maintaining a 4.8 rating on iOS App Store and a 4.7 rating on Google Play.
Subscriptions have seen steady growth and people continue to love the Mango experience.
