This project was developed over a four-week period for my Mobile App Design class. LiftLink is a mobile app concept designed for Olympic weightlifters and powerlifters to track their workouts, improve form, and connect with a like-minded community. At its core, LiftLink merges performance analytics with social interaction, giving users the ability to log their lifts, upload videos for feedback, and receive real-time AI-powered analysis and judging, including a unique three-light system inspired by official competition standards. The app fills a major gap in the fitness tech space by creating a dedicated platform tailored specifically for strength athletes who want both data-driven insights and authentic community support.
My approach centered on creating a seamless experience that balances function, motivation, and social engagement. I began by identifying pain points in existing fitness and lifting apps, such as lack of form feedback, generic tracking tools, and fragmented communities, and translated those insights into user-first solutions. Through wireframing, user task flows, and testing, I prioritized clarity, accessibility, and clean interaction design. I explored bold branding, intuitive UI elements, and a minimalist layout to reflect the intensity and focus of the lifting world while ensuring the app remained inviting for lifters at all levels.
