• Come up with insights
• Gather data in one place
• Find peculiarities in data
• Organize the data
• Find themes in the data

Question 3)
Consider the following scenario:
During a usability study for a fast-food app, many participants had trouble completing their order. Multiple participants noted that the color contrast of the interface made it difficult to find the “Complete Order” button. Some participants with visual impairments could not differentiate between the different lines, buttons, and negative space in the app. The designers grouped these types of observations under the theme “Color.”
What kind of insight can the designers draw from these “Color” observations, and how can they improve their app?

• The participants had trouble completing their order because the buttons weren’t responsive
• The participants had difficulty navigating the app because of the color palette. The designers need to make the app more accessible by updating the colors to have higher contrast.
