I think an app that has a good mobile design is Venmo. I am not sure if many people have visited Venmo on a desktop or laptop but the experience to me feels much different. The mobile app seems simplified and also makes it easy to pay and get payments quickly since most people don't carry around their laptops.  The menu button at the top left has some features that you might not use every time in the app but could be useful and are still easy to find. The most used payment button at the top right is very easy to search or scan someone else's phone for easy transactions that take less than 30 seconds. The apps colors are light blue and white with black/grey text making it very easy to read. Also the transfer of money from the app into your bank account is as simple as 2 clicks. Also for people who may not be great with technology there is a physical card that you can get.

    I agree, Venmo is very easy to use and it is easy to make quick payments. Venmo does a great job in making the app simple to use for people who are not that tech-savvy

    Brock, I agree with you. Venmo is very simple and easy to use. There have been numerous occasions where I completed my task on the app in under 2 clicks. Easy to navigate and to find what you are looking for.

    I agree that Venmo is an innovative concept and design, especially with the scanner on the mobile app. Say you are at lunch with a colleague and they forgot their wallet. Venmo eliminates the awkwardness of feeling like you're mooching and the anxiety for the other person about when and whether they will be paid back and do they have the funds to pay for two lunches currently. As long as the friend without the wallet actually has $ in their account, they can send a venmo payment with a scan on the spot and the friend buying can transfer it to their bank, literally instantly, before the waiter brings the check. Efficiency and effectiveness are top notch.

    Completely agree; Easy to use and has a very minimalistic design making it much easier to look at. They've made paying others back extremely easy a more fun by enabling the users to throw a caption in with their payments.
