The Digital Transformation of Micro-Moments: Glance's UX-First Approach

"You've got to start with the customer experience and work back toward the technology, not the other way around." — Steve Jobs 

Imagine trying to catch a bus while on the run. While sprinting through the bus stop, you sneak a look at your phone to see that the weather’s clear today and it won't be such a chaos like yesterday. That instantly makes you whisper, “Whatta relief!”. That's digital transformation in action, and it's what we're doing at Glance. Curious to know how? Stay with us and you’ll come across brilliant surprises throughout this journey! 

Why Digital Transformation Isn't Just a Buzzword 

70% of companies either have a digital transformation strategy in place or are actively working on one (30+ Digital Transformation Statistics You Need to Know in 2024) 

Think how you used to hail a taxi. You stood on the road, stretched your arm out, and hoped that the driver noticed your signal. Today, with a tap on your phone, a car appears at your door. That is the changed face of digital transformation and is changing everything - transportation, healthcare, retail-just to name a few. 

Glance goes even further and brings that magical power right to your lock screen, so you get the information you need before you even have a chance to unlock your device.

— Warren Buffett, Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway 

A look into the future is provided by some trends to shape mobile technology and how Glance is readied to embrace them:

Well, 5G’s digital transformation is going to be way more transformative, and we're definitely going to look forward to breakneck speeds to get our content served faster. 

Augmented Reality (AR): Have you played Augmented reality/virtual reality games? If not, do remember the way it changed gaming by blurring the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds. Think about how you can bring such AR elements into a lock screen.
