UX Camp 2015: Mobile Camp

Think Globally, Develop Locally: What International Users (Should) Mean to You

As the world gets smaller, the universe of mobile users is getting bigger. Mobile devices outnumber the world’s population, yet as we design and develop apps from our stateside offices, couches and coffee shops, we often forget about consumers in other countries. In this session, we’ll talk about how to design for other cultures, what our products lose when we don’t and how to find inspiration in the incredible mobile experiences made for international audiences.
