Paper Desktop App

Bring Paper closer to daily work with a dedicated desktop app for faster creation, retrieval, and focused document workflows.

Create and access docs quickly, keep your workspace organized, and focus on your work without distractions with a dedicated Paper desktop app. I inherited a nascent initiative and was responsible for growing and expanding its features and user base. In-house: Dropbox Paper. Role: Product Designer. Collaborator: Kevin Tunc.

Paper Desktop Activation Experiment

While the Paper Desktop app was in closed beta, we launched a three-way A/B test to understand the impact on new user activation in Paper Desktop's product funnel and identify a thoughtful solution for upselling users.

Desktop Design System

In an effort for Paper Desktop to be ready for an infrastructure migration, we revamped our design system to accommodate new users. We did this with an incremental gain on various aspects of the product.

Desktop Search

To support the Paper 2020 document migration into Dropbox, Paper Desktop needed to match changes made to users' accounts on the web. This included a new search experience for new and legacy docs across both Dropbox and Paper.

Desktop Multi-Window

Over time, we found that there seemed to be a need for referencing completed or work-in-progress docs with many power users. During Hackweek, I worked on designing a multi-doc experience that would enable a quicker workflow.

Desktop Beta Page

In response to users actively requesting the desktop app, I designed a series of beta milestones from closed to open. The deliverables included a beta marketing page and distribution mechanism, gradually allowing an expanded set of users into the app to improve quality and feature set before the full GA release.

Project 01

Spaces Tasks

Dropbox / 2018-2019

Teams rely on tasks to coordinate work, but they are usually scattered. I helped make tasks a lightweight part of the workspace itself inside Dropbox Spaces.

It helped Dropbox feel more like a workspace and less like a file destination.

  • Stronger workspace narrative
  • Better visibility into active work
  • More connected planning model

Paper Desktop

Dropbox / 2018-2021

I inherited a nascent Paper Desktop initiative and helped grow it into a more capable product around activation, search, and a more flexible desktop workflow.

The desktop app made Paper easier to access, organize, and stay focused in.

Paper Marketing Page

Dropbox / 2018-2021

I redesigned the Dropbox Paper marketing page to cut load time, sharpen the value story, and improve conversion.

A more grounded launch story made the product easier to understand from the outside in.

Paper Templates

Dropbox / 2018-2021

We shifted toward acquisition and activation by creating template packs and a template library designed around real user problems.

Good defaults helped the product feel helpful earlier in the workflow.

  • Lower-friction project starts
  • Clearer structured entry points
