Amove Dashboard: UI & UX Refinement in a Startup Environment

Amove is a cloud storage management platform that unifies distributed storage systems and simplifies workflows for teams and businesses. The internal web dashboard serves as a central hub for users to manage connected cloud drives, monitor syncs and backups, and configure account settings.

My role focused on taking existing UX wireframes created by a previous team and translating them into a refined UI with thoughtful UX improvements that enhanced clarity, hierarchy, and overall usability under real-world startup constraints.

My role focused on taking existing UX wireframes created by a previous team and translating them into a refined UI with thoughtful UX improvements that enhanced clarity, hierarchy, and overall usability under real-world startup constraints.

Interpreted existing UX wireframes into high-fidelity UI designs

Designed the full dashboard interface in Figma

Made independent decisions around hierarchy, spacing, and interaction patterns

Constraints & realities

This project took place under real startup conditions.

Early-stage product with evolving requirements

No access to users or user research

Worked independently from the original UX team

Rapid iteration cycles based on leadership feedback

UX Audit

To design the dashboard effectively, I first identified breakdowns in hierarchy and action clarity in the existing wireframes.

Auditing & Refinement

I refined the system to better communicate purpose, hierarchy, and interaction.

Differentiated action buttons from informational cards, ensuring primary actions were immediately recognizable.

Introduced subtle visual differentiation between card types to better communicate their functions, while maintaining consistent sizing to preserve layout stability.
