Crafting with Clarity, Reliability, and Control

Ying Zhong, VP of Product, attributes the development of the new Bake mobile app to a customer-centric approach. According to YZ, the new Bake mobile app was built on three core pillars: Clarity, Reliability and Control.

• Clarity: ensuring app's features are straightforward and easy to navigate, providing a pleasant experience for both new users and seasoned investors.
  
• Reliability: essential to our commitment to safe, predictable returns. The new app allows users to predict their payout up to the minute, straight from the home screen.
  
• Control: a feature many customers requested. Now customers can  compare average APYs at a glance with the new return prediction calculator. The future returns calculator enabling users to identify the best performing asset/product combination at any time.

Designing for Experience

At Bake, design goes beyond aesthetics. This belief is reflected in the crafting of the new Bake mobile app, where VP of Design, Maik Lutze and his team underscored the importance of creating a user experience that profoundly resonates with our customers. 

“Design is not just about how something looks. It's about how it feels, how it works, how it integrates into your everyday life. That’s why, in order to create an entirely new experience, we had to let go of everything we did so far. That meant starting with an entirely blank slate and spending more than 250 hours talking to our customers.” he explained. 

Engineering Excellence

Petar Vudragovic, Bake Engineering Lead, highlights the goal to create a platform that is robust, intuitive and user-friendly. To achieve this, the team undertook rigorous changes and innovations:

• The mobile app was completely rebuilt from scratch, eliminating old issues and providing a clear structure for developers.
  
• The codebase was improved based on the experience of the last 4 years, fixing all existing bugs and creating a codebase easily localized for new international markets.
  
• The new Bake app is customizable for new products and services, paving the ground for many new features in the coming months.
  
• A design system was implemented through a component library to ensure consistency and speed up app development.
  
• App testing was improved by automating QA processes, ensuring a reliable, user-friendly, and efficient app.
