Brief: Redesign an existing app with a rating of less than 3 stars in the app store.
Background: NLB Mobile app by National Library Board Singapore is an app for users to borrow both physical and digital books, keep track of them and find new books to read. Users can ‘like’ books to borrow in the future and get notified when their book is due for return.

Settings Page
The home page acts as the virtual library where the user can easily search for all kinds of materials to borrow. The recommend feature gives the user personalised recommendations and the general categories are clearly organised on the page.

This is the page when the user selects a book. Here they can read more information about the book and decide to whether or not to borrow it. The like feature will also allow the user to save the book to borrow in the future.

iPad
The iPad home page is also organised in the same way, with the personalised recommendations, other and genre. There is an added feature of the Top 20 books of the week and the top title of the week. The burger menu allows for easy navigation between other pages.
