Project

iOS & Android app redesign

My role

Senior UI Designer (Contract)

Summary
As part of a brand refresh Priority Pass wanted to redesign their native iOS & Android app to look and feel more modern and premium.

About

Priority Pass is the world’s original and largest independent airport lounge access programme, with a customer base of over 10 million members.

The product is available to consumers, as well as being a benefit in the reward programmes of global banks, credit cards and telecom providers.

The problem
