This week, Chris and Jon discuss the new Apple Music app! They go through the onboarding, discuss the app’s design, and talk about some possible solutions. Do you think Apple did a good job? Or have they resorted to using some dreadful UX dark patterns? Stay tuned! We have a great show for you!

This week, Chris and Jon talk about how playfulness can help improve your UX. As an example of playfulness, we look at an app called Carrot; an app to help you track calories. It’s a fun episode, so listen in and stop being so serious!

Try Carrot out for yourself and tell us what you think.
