“ This deals with how the user uses the app ( access the app) and what information/ allowance your app provides for the user”.

This plays a crucial role in arranging the functionalities of the app in an effective manner such that users can use your app easily & an engaging manner.

This will also help to reduce distractions and the number of options(features).

Such that users have more clarity and focus and good experience in using your app.

To understand this, let’s assume you wanna clean your room and arrange everything such as… Clothes, table, bed, books, other accessories in your room.

Similarly, you should know the position of the information, content, images, videos, audio, buttons, etc, before you begin to build your app (or) modify it.
