Tata Neu

A super-app redesign built entirely from what users were complaining about on the Play Store.

A three-day exercise. Read hundreds of Play Store reviews, clustered the complaints, and rebuilt the parts that broke most often.

01 · The problem

Real usage, consistently bad reviews.

Tata Neu is a super-app with real usage and consistently bad Play Store reviews. I wanted to see if a rigorous read of what users were actually complaining about would surface a redesign brief more focused than "make it nicer."

02 · Constraints and decisions

Four calls that shaped the concept.

  1. Grounded the brief in real user complaints only.

    No opinion-based "I would improve X."

  2. Clustered complaints into 5 problem groups.

    Prioritized by frequency and severity.

  3. Redesigned the top three, left the rest intact.

    Rejected:a full-app redesign that would have been thin everywhere.

  4. Kept the Tata brand hooks.

    This is a redesign, not a rebrand.

03 · Outcome

What came out of it.

  • Three-day timeline held
  • Method (Play Store reviews as design brief) is reusable
04 · Reflection

Reviews are underused as a design input. Everyone reads them anecdotally. Almost nobody clusters and prioritizes.

That gap is the whole exercise.
