Simplified or limited? : A study on how Spotify's car mode affects the user experience for car drivers (English)
Abstract [en]
Nowadays, smartphones are considered an essential part of our everyday lives. However, as the use of them increases so does their presence in vehicle environments. Prior studies have found that interacting with mobile devices while driving can cause cognitive, manual, and visual distractions. These distractions have a significant effect on driving performance and can result in serious accidents. As a solution to this, some applications, such as Spotify, has taken a different approach by developing a simplified version of their graphica linterface that is specifically designed for driving.The aim of this study is to examine what impacts simplified graphical interfaces has on the user experience for car drivers, focusing on Spotify and their car mode. In order to examine this, an online survey and a feature analysis was conducted. The result of this study shows that Spotify's car mode is missing a lot of features that are important to the users, causing them not to use it. These results highlight the challenge of providing all features that are expected by the users while creating a simpler interface.
