I can’t overstate the value of watching customers move through the screens of competitor mobile apps. This helped us understand how they arm and disarm security functions; how they access a panic button; how they zoom in while they watch their home or office from their smartphone; and even how dependent they are on WiFi.

It was amazing talking to users in their natural environments at home or on the go. During a live session, a participant showed us how she uses the mobile app while her daughter sat on her lap. That’s what we need, genuine experiences!
