Make Magic, Not Mobile Apps

Saturday, March 12
12:30PM - 1:30PM

JW Marriott
Salon D
110 E 2nd St

When the iPhone was born, we could only imagine a future where you could summon cars with your watch, pay with your fingerprint or get nudged out the door for a run. Today, our devices have become magical assistants with apps taking on a supporting role. As one blogger wrote, “it’s the end of apps as we know them,” and as product developers, we need to adapt: To look beyond Interface Builder and Photoshop and think of ourselves as choreographers of real-world interactions. To design experiences, not apps. In this panel, you’ll learn from people who orchestrate experiences at Uber, OpenTable and Pinterest as they share how they’ve adapted their products & processes to a world of invisible apps.
