When designing a finance mobile app, especially in the early stages, it's essential to focus on clarity, user flow, and the overall structure. A finance app needs to be intuitive, with easy navigation to critical features such as account summaries, transactions, and budgeting tools. At this stage, a low fidelity wireframe is ideal for sketching out the layout and ensuring that all necessary features are included, without being bogged down by details like colors or exact content. This allows you to focus on how users will interact with the app rather than the visual appeal.
In this low fidelity wireframe for a finance app, created in a sketchy design, the goal is to establish the core screens that make up the user journey—from the login screen to the dashboard, transaction history, and profile settings. Since this wireframe is meant for early-stage development, the focus should be on arranging elements in a way that makes the app easy to use, even for first-time users. Screens should be simple, with placeholder elements representing buttons, input fields, and navigation menus.
Login Screen
The first screen you see is the login page, where the layout should prioritize ease of access and clear call-to-action buttons. A simple design ensures that users can quickly input their credentials or use an alternative login method.
Customization tip: If your finance app highlights any unique security features, consider reflecting that with additional design elements or custom login options that differentiate your app.
Main Dashboard
Moving to the main dashboard, this wireframe represents essential financial information at a glance. The layout should be clean, offering easy navigation to account balances, recent transactions, and budgeting tools. At this stage, it’s crucial to decide what data should take priority on the dashboard based on your app’s unique selling points (USPs). For example, if your app focuses on budgeting, you might want to dedicate more screen space to graphs and spending categories.
Customization tip: Consider how you want to guide users’ attention and adjust the wireframe accordingly—whether it's highlighting quick actions like bill pay or emphasizing savings goals.
Transaction History
The transaction history screen should allow users to easily scroll through past activity, and in this low fidelity wireframe, the focus is on providing a clear timeline of financial actions.
Customization tip: Depending on your target audience, you may want to add filtering options that let users search for specific transactions or display more information about recurring payments.
Other essential screens like profile settings and notifications should offer a simple and streamlined experience. You can modify these sections to include any app-specific features, like personalized alerts or in-depth privacy settings.
