User stories are a critical part of the product design process. They're essential in helping define requirements and prioritize features. In this video I walk you through how to write a user story and use them in your product design process!
If you're new here, hi! I'm Femke and I'm a product designer at a large tech company, making videos about design and research. On the side I co-host a podcast, travel and enjoy cooking.

“Map the stories to the journey” - that’s sage advice (why didn’t I think of that!)

Great video! As a business analyst I'm familiar with user stories. My process was very similar but after the story I added acceptance criterias, I can do this, I can't do that, these really helped me identify edge cases, I think these are really important in the developement process. After this I also added some examples with real data, these help the dev team understand the story. Actually as I'm trying myself as a UX guy I'm a little bit stuck now with a problem and your video helped me, reminded me to focus on the user and try to forget features so I went back to square one with my process and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now :) Thanks!

Hi Femke, I’m a soon-to-be UX designer based in Utrecht. I’m here because I listened to your podcast on Flux. Very cool story and I felt there were some similarities with mine (although mine is a light-version). After finished my studies (both in a non-design field) I figured out that I wanted to work as (UX) designer. To cut a long story short, this week I got hired to do a UX traineeship at a cool company! I subscribed to your channel, can’t wait for more vids! Thanks, Bart

Hi, I'm currently struggling on this task, writing user stories. It's very difficult when you have a lot of different users with kind of similar needs but not the same. It's a challenging part that you can't skip (or at least shouldn't....) especially when you have a lot of needs/users. Very nice video, I like you're method, I'll try it soon.

Loving your videos! I think that How Might We framework is very similar to user stories as you are describing them: “HMW help do so that ”. I didn't see the connection between the two before, but now they look almost entirely identical. What do you think? Are they interchangeable or are they used in different parts of the process?

I just finished with POV and HMW for a project. I wanted to also include user stories but watching this video now, I really don't think it's necessary as they are almost give the same result

Too many assumptions are dangerous. Especially when you couple implementation with motivations and outcomes by completely ignoring context. Later if ux fails, how do you separate the two? I personally see more sense in Job Stories when the problem is framed in a job, focusing on triggering event or situation, the motivation and goal, and the intended outcome: When (a new customer signs up), I want to (be notified), so I can (start a conversation with them. www.intercom.com/blog/using-job-stories-design-features-ui-ux/

Be good if you could provide links to the excel sheet with some examples that we could use as a template.

@lovelylexi2492 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for sharing! Question - I think you mentioned this in the video, but before creating user stories, you first have to implement user interviews aka talk to users, right? Could you also create "as is" user stories from a subjective view, and then compare/contrast them with user stories generated from interviews?

At 3:37 I see your spreadsheet and the stories. A story should be like 1 - 3 days maximum. How do you close the stories in that short time? In my case the User story is something the user will have in a release so in my case the story should be more of an Epic and broken up in user stories for like Backend stuff. I'm really confused about how to size and build user stories in context of backend (technical) work that needs to be done in the background...
