Reducing on-boarding drop offs by 31% in SifinityGo by Siemens



The Sifinity Go app by Siemens enables remote configuration and monitoring of e-vehicle chargers. Users can conveniently adjust settings and monitor charging activities in real-time, ensuring efficient management of chargers from a distance.
However, there was a much needed revamp of the app.

Challenges in the current journey

Non-Intuitive Interface
A non-intuitive interface resulted in confusion and inefficiency during the configuration process for VersiChargers, contributing to drop-offs.

Unclear Onboarding
Inadequate onboarding processes led to a suboptimal introduction to the app's features, causing user frustration and errors during the initial setup.

Visual Upgrade
The lack of visual enhancements impacted user engagement, creating a less user-friendly interface during configuration and contributing to observed complaints.
