But have you ever stopped to think about why some apps are more successful than others? Why some apps seem to effortlessly boost your productivity, while others just leave you feeling frustrated and overwhelmed?

The answer lies in one simple phrase: UI/UX.

Now, I know what you’re thinking — “what on earth is UI/UX?” But trust me, it’s worth paying attention to. UI stands for User Interface, while UX stands for User Experience.
