Does anybody know a method for designing for inexperienced users? Design for user inexperience? I’m wondering whether there shouldn’t be something similar to Germany’s “Leichte Sprache”, but for user interfaces en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leicht…

Context: I recently noted how many people simply can’t use a user interface that makes use of cool new interaction patterns, especially if they’re not regular computer/smart phone users

Is it maybe a generational thing or do you notice lack of understanding across the board?

It‘s too late to think about UX when there is already a UI. Design begins in understanding the problem to be solved. Design ≠ graphic design.

Constantly battling sleek trendy user interfaces and telling people that „the default behavior“ (…of the browser, of the system, etc.) will work better has unfortunately become a huge part of my job. I’d argue that even if people are regular users, they won’t get the pattern.

IMO the UX should cater to these users needs. If the app is not simply aimed at power users, there should always be a self-explanatory UX
