Quick Fixes
After the user research sessions, there might be minor design-related issues that the Product Designer can quickly fix before the client presentation and design hand-over.
Quick Fixes are minor UI changes or additions that affect the product's UX and usability, such as:
Copy change: e.g., labels, headlines, paragraphs
Text and number legibility: e.g., small characters, low contrast, number separators, alignment
Contextual helpers: e.g., tooltips, helper text, links
Visual cues: e.g., arrows, icons, colour change
High-level strategic or conceptual issues are not Quick Fixes.
When to share them?
Quick Fixes are discussed in a 30-minute scheduled call between the User Researcher and Product Designer the day after the user research sessions.
If they prefer and agree beforehand, this can be an async video recording posted in the project's Discord channel by the User Researcher.
As a User Researcher, the earlier you share these, the better. Consider that the Product Designer has a 4-hour working day to work on the Quick Fixes before the client presentation and design hand-over.
