What is SwipeSwipe?

What is SwipeSwipe?

Imagine managing your finances with ease—whether it's tracking your spending, saving, or investing, SwipeSwipe was created to help users achieve financial freedom. But here’s the catch: the original version was far from simple. It was overwhelming, cluttered, and far too complex for everyday users.


That’s where I came in.

Too Much Information,

Too Much Information,

Simplifying Financial Management for the Everyday User


The existing SwipeSwipe interface bombarded users with too much information. It lacked focus, and users were left feeling lost rather than empowered. There was no central hub, no intuitive dashboard where users could easily see their financial health in one glance. On top of that, key features like the substitute engine, which helped users make smart saving or investing decisions, were hidden deep within the cluttered design.

Simplify, Focus, and Empower

Simplify, Focus, and Empower

I knew that to solve this, the answer wasn’t to add more features but to simplify what was already there. My goal was to strip away the clutter and create something that would make users feel confident in their decisions.

Simplify the plugin interface


I took the most important page


— The Account: tracking points, purchase history, resources & feedback

— and reorganized them into a cleaner, more intuitive design.


I wanted users to feel that they were in control, not battling with endless buttons.

Build a centralized dashboard.

This was the missing piece—a place where users could see all their financial data in one clean, easy-to-read space. The new dashboard would allow users to see how much they’ve saved, how much they’re spending, and what investments they could make to grow their wealth.

Creating the Dashboard:
A New Product for Financial Clarity

Creating the Dashboard:
A New Product for Financial Clarity

After addressing the plugin’s issues, it became clear that users needed more than isolated fixes. They needed a unified system to manage their finances holistically. A simple, well-designed dashboard could provide an at-a-glance view of their spending, saving, and investing habits—without switching between systems or features.

Designing a Scalable Design System

Designing a Scalable Design System

"I went beyond the core redesign."

To ensure consistency and future scalability, I created a comprehensive design system for SwipeSwipe. This system included all design components, color schemes, typography, and interaction patterns, allowing the team to quickly iterate and add new features without disrupting the user experience.

Why it mattered: As the product grew, this design system saved time and ensured every new feature maintained the same level of user-centered design.
