User Experience Tools

User Experience Tools are used to understand how users interact with a product or service. These tools can help you gain insights into users’ behavior and preferences, which can then be used to inform decisions related to product design, development, and marketing. Common user experience tools include affinity maps, user stories, user journeys, emotion mapping, persona creation, heat mapping, card sorting, and surveys. By collecting data on users’ experiences, you can better understand their needs and create products and services that meet those needs.
