Hiring guide

What to look for in a Mobile App Design freelancer

A strong mobile app designer thinks in flows and thumbs, not just pretty screens. Look for:

  • Real shipped apps in the portfolio, ideally ones you can download and try.
  • Fluency with iOS and Android guidelines, so the app feels at home on each device.
  • Attention to states: empty, loading, error, and success, not just the happy path.
  • Prototyping skill that lets you feel the interaction before committing to build.
  • A sense for accessibility: readable text, tap targets, and contrast that hold up in daylight.

Ask to try a live app they designed, then watch how they explain the flow decisions behind it.
