Abstract

The user’s mental model is the core guiding theory of product design, especially practical products. The essence of practical product is a tool which is used by users to meet their needs. Then, the most important feature of a tool is usability. The design method based on the user's mental model provides a series of practical and feasible theoretical guidance for improving the usability of the product according to the user’s awareness of things. In this paper, we propose a method of designing smartphone interface based on the extended user’s mental model according to further research on user groups. This approach achieves personalized customization of smartphone application interface and enhance application using efficiency.
