Original post. If you have a mobile app and presence in the physical world, you should care about App clips and Instant apps. They are an interesting way of fighting app installation friction while still utilising tech capabilities not available on the web. You don't see them too much in Finland yet, but Lime scooters provide a … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: App Clips in practice

LinkedIn: State of design tools
Original post. Good insight about the state of the tools for design, facilitation, user research, design systems etc (n > 4000). I was not surprised to see Figma dominating. I was a bit surprised, though, to see that Sketch is still so much bigger than Adobe XD and that Miro beats Mural with such a … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: State of design tools
LinkedIn: Good things in Teams
Original post. I’m used to having my remote collaboration take place in Slack and Google Meet during past years. Recently, I’ve been spending my days in Teams instead. It would be easy to rant about all the things that should be improved in Teams but I thought I’d share some positive remarks instead. It’s Friday, … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Good things in Teams
LinkedIn: Leaving Qvik
Original post. My last days at Qvik are at hand. The world was very different when I started my journey as the first non-developer in the company 10 years ago. I remember how Spotify had just launched their first mobile app and I had read an Engadget article about this. – Ok, it’s nice to have all … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Leaving Qvik
LinkedIn: Tallink mobile app customer reviews over years
Original post. Back when I used to be rather deeply involved with Tallink mobile services, I enabled Google Play admin console to send me a push message every time their app received a customer review.

LinkedIn: Accessibility of top mobile apps in Finland is poor
Original post. Another batch of original research from Qvik. This time it was the one and only Lassi A. Liikkanen who did a major effort in evaluating the top-15 Finnish apps in the application stores (iOS & Android) to see how they meet the new accessibility requirements. TLDR: "Everyone failed, but in varying degrees". Read it here. … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Accessibility of top mobile apps in Finland is poor
LinkedIn: Survey about reasons of not downloading mobile apps
Original post. We recently conducted a nationwide survey about mobile app related user behaviour in the Finnish market. I shared some results earlier here but now we have published two blog posts where we discuss the findings in greater detail. Read the article on Qvik web site. One of the interesting findings was that the … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Survey about reasons of not downloading mobile apps
LinkedIn: Espresso House coffee subscription
Original post. Earlier this week, it was in the news that Espresso House Group café chain will start offering coffee with a monthly subscription. Today it seems to be live. I think it's a clever hack that they issue you a "free coffee" coupon once an hour. It's also great they have built their app to be … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Espresso House coffee subscription
LinkedIn: Panel discussion on the business benefits of strong customer authentication
Original post. I will participate in a panel discussion later this week, organised by Signicat. The topic will be the good old: PSD2 is coming, what should we do about strong customer authentication (SCA)? What is new is the point of view. So far, I have been focusing on the ways of optimising the customer … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Panel discussion on the business benefits of strong customer authentication
LinkedIn: Experiences from Suunto 7 purchase process analysis
Original post. Not everyone knows that I used to be pretty deeply involved in the world of sports and fitness apps and wearable devices 5+ years ago. Hence, it was personally rewarding to participate in assessing the purchase and onboarding experience of #Suunto7, their first Wear OS powered smart sports watch this summer. Better yet, I … Jatka artikkeliin LinkedIn: Experiences from Suunto 7 purchase process analysis
