Results

When the engagement began, less than 1% of Indosat subscribers were using the self-care app, which suffered from poor UX/UI, low ratings, and a frequent number of complaints and crashes. LotusFlare helped Indosat entirely revamp the user experience on the app, starting with defining the core value proposition, streamlining the onboarding experience and eliminating other friction points. The goal was to apply best practices in UX/UI and to build a more intuitive experience, in order to double the 30-day retention rate. Once the UX was stabilized and product-market fit achieved, LotusFlare helped Indosat implement country-wide acquisition campaigns.
