Differences in usability of mobile user interfaces
for left- vs. right-handed users
In the context of my master thesis at UAS St. Pölten I dealt with the design and usability of mobile user interfaces, especially with regard to the differences in the use with the left or right hand.
In the empirical part of this thesis, an A/B test was conducted with the goal of observing the position of smartphones in the hands of users. Furthermore similarities as well as differences between left- and right-handed participants have been observed. For the high fidelity prototype used for the usability tests, a mobile website was created for a fictitious spa called “vacare”. Below the design is presented, but also the results of the research that has been carried out and evaluated.
