Channel 4 TV app
Prototyped with ProtoPie
Designing for television presents unique challenges—especially with a fixed-focus interface controlled entirely by a remote. Building this kind of interaction in ProtoPie is one of the toughest use cases.
The Channel 4 TV app prototype not only recreated the full viewing experience but were also supported by a custom drag-and-drop component library. This library enabled the wider design team to quickly assemble their own prototypes, accelerating both iteration and exploration.
