Project Responsibilities

Despite serving 41 million paid subscribers—84% of whom are on ad-supported plans, Peacock captures just 1% of the market share of Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) and only accounts for 1.4% of TV streaming time. This suggests that Peacock is not capturing subscriber attention efficiently as its competitors, despite its large customer base. According to The Verge, users experience "terrible search functionality," and "counterintuitive content design," and advertisements appearing on "ad-free plans." Users may be facing difficulty in discovering content, which can hinder engagement and reduce advert revenue growth.
Problem Space
Project Goal
Design and deliver a prototype redesign of Peacock TV app that lets users discover, navigate, and start streaming content seamlessly within four clicks while adhering UX design principles.

Process
Understanding the needs of user segments
Peacock has two main user segments: ad-supported subscribers and ad-free subscribers. Ad-supported subscribers do not have the desire to see constant adverts, however, they are willing to stream content with short adverts. Ad-free subscribers do not wish to see any form of advertisement whatsoever, they wish stream on-demand content without distraction or interruption. Peacock has stated that "Premium Plus" customers will see adverts on Peacock channels, live events and a "few TV shows and movies" even though they are "ad-free". Phoebe is a Premium Plus customer and has a frustration of adverts "interrupting the viewing experience".
Testing with users
I designed low-fi and hi-fi solutions to be tested by sample users for improvements on an iterative basis. I conducted usability testing sessions and silently observed users, alerting them that it is a prototype, and not the finished product.
