Before-After case: S60 TOUCH - Cool and Usable User Interface
Creating cool and usable user interface for Nokia S60 Touch
“We recommend Idean to every software developer who needs cool design and practical UI implementation for their mobile apps” - Tom Ojala, Chairman, Joiku
While we simply love and appreciate disruptive revolutions that change the industry, such as Apple’s iPhone, we are strong believers of the long-term evolution that reaches the next level with Nokia’s S60 Touch UI. So to speak we warmly welcome Nokia 5800. With the largest market share and an open platform, S60 has the potential to bring the touch experience to the masses.
Introduction and launch of the new S60 Touch platform gives the application developers an exciting challenge to bring the mobile user experience to the next level. With world-leading in-house S60 design talent and the years of experience, Idean is passionate to be a part of this evolution from day 1 - or even before.
Instead of waiting, we jumpstarted the work in cooperation with Joiku - one of the hottest developer companies out there - by giving their killer JoikuSpot application concept a brand new cool look and greatly improving it’s usability.

“Idean was able to “bring JoikuSpot to life” with WOW-elements never seen in software UI on S60 devices”- Tom Ojala, Chairman, Joiku
We started a project with Joiku with the task to “create a UI which is on par with Apple”. And that is exactly what we did. We did not simply brush up the graphics, but also created a component-based approach to help developers write their code efficiently. This part of the project is not yet public, but is another great example of Idean’s capacity to deliver a full service.
“Idean’s UI design does a great favour for Nokia’s Touch UI, bringing the best elements and capabilities of the Touch UI concretely to life”- Tom Ojala, Chairman, Joiku
This glimpse into the future is a preview of what is to come: a great user experience that combines natural touch interaction with fresh, usable and effective user interfaces. Stay tuned.

“Idean’s UI design for JoikuSpot made it possible to simplify the user experience and usage flow of JoikuSpot with more than 50%” - Tom Ojala, Chairman, Joiku
