Usability audit checklist for an app
Get a structured usability review of your app’s key flows — onboarding, forms, navigation — with prioritized issues and fixes you can ship.
Apps lose users at predictable friction points: a confusing first run, a form that punishes mistakes, navigation that hides the one thing people came for. An audit names those points before churn does.
Describe your flow and the tool produces a prioritized list of usability issues, each with the principle it breaks and a recommended fix. It is a draft review to act on — fast enough to run on every release.

Frequently asked questions
Which flows should I audit first? +
Start with onboarding, sign-up/checkout, and your core task flow — that is where most drop-off happens. Describe each and run the audit per flow.
What does each finding include? +
The issue, the usability principle it violates, a severity, and a concrete fix you can hand to design or engineering.
How often should I run it? +
Run it whenever a key flow changes. It is fast enough to use as a pre-release check.
