Chop Dawg collaborated with Hint Social to design a new kind of social platform—one that connects like‑minded users around shared interests, real‑life events, and authentic conversation. From branding and wireframes to high‑fidelity mockups and UI assets, we crafted an engaging, trust‑focused experience that promotes genuine human interaction over mindless scrolling. Our detailed design process laid the foundation for a social network that’s both intuitive for casual users and robust for experienced community builders.
Hint Social aims to break away from the oversaturated, profit‑driven social platforms of today. Its mission is simple yet ambitious: unite people through passions—be it music, sports, or life stages—and encourage them to meet face‑to‑face. In support of this mission, the team at Hint Social sought a design‑centric approach that includes branding, user flows, marketing materials, and in‑app visual elements. Chop Dawg stepped in as a design partner, ensuring the final product—across mobile and web—carries consistent messaging, a seamless user journey, and a strong sense of community.
A Bold, User‑Focused UI & UX That Inspires Real‑World Connections
Most social networks focus on superficial content or isolated, echo‑chamber experiences. Hint Social wanted to prioritize authenticity: forging meaningful connections based on shared hobbies, goals, or identities. This required a design that accommodates dynamic group creation, targeted search filters (platonically or romantically), and event‑centered invitations—all while providing robust privacy controls to keep users safe. Creating an attractive UI that balances robust functionality with an inclusive, trust‑building aesthetic was key to setting Hint Social apart.
Chop Dawg and the team at Hint Social began with a series of discovery sessions—mapping user personas, content architecture, and the app’s core branding elements. Through iterative sprints on Zoom, Slack, and Figma, we refined every visual and functional aspect of the platform’s design. Once wireframes were tested against user feedback, we translated them into high‑fidelity mockups. This close collaboration ensured each screen—from group creation to event sponsorship—promoted transparent interactions while integrating essential features like two‑factor authentication, sponsorship ads, and direct messaging.
The Hint Social interface showcases the key elements needed to foster real‑world friendships and vibrant communities.
We created a user flow that spotlights niche groups around shared interests. The design features clean group pages with clear calls to action for posts, events, and membership requests.
Custom calendar views and event listings entice users to engage offline. Our visuals highlight date, time, and location details while offering easy RSVP functionality.
In the mockups, users can tailor profiles, toggle privacy levels, and manage friend lists. A balanced layout ensures personal info remains visible only to chosen connections.
We designed multi‑layer filters for age, distance, shared interests, or relationship status, ensuring users quickly find compatible new friends and event invites.
Beyond core flows, our design approach delivers enhanced discovery, communication, and security controls.
Sponsored groups, posts, and events feature subtle but clear labels, upholding transparency while providing revenue opportunities.
Our final designs accommodate user‑friendly audio, video, and photo uploads across group pages and direct messages, encouraging rich, multimedia conversations.
The administrative UI—also visually aligned with the main app—streamlines account management, group approvals, event oversight, and advertisement tracking.
Our design expertise extended from initial concepts and wireframes to high‑fidelity prototypes and brand‑aligned marketing assets.
Chop Dawg worked closely with the Hint Social team to craft a modern logo, color palette, and typography that visually echo the app’s mission of building sincere relationships.
Through Figma prototypes, we validated user flows for group discovery, profile management, and event RSVPs—ensuring intuitive navigation and high engagement.
Our team delivered all final design files, style guides, and marketing materials, remaining a supportive partner for any future design updates or iterations.
We maintained daily Slack communication and weekly Zoom reviews, allowing Hint Social to offer prompt feedback on wireframes, color schemes, and UI iterations. Using transparent task management in Jira, each design milestone—like building out the sponsorship flow or refining admin dashboards—was tackled in partnership. This iterative feedback loop guaranteed a polished final product that resonates with Hint Social’s audience and brand values.
Our design uses easy‑to‑grasp flows for group membership, event planning, and direct messaging—encouraging engagement among various age groups and backgrounds.
Detailed search parameters help users find friends, groups, or events, while layered privacy controls give users peace of mind regarding who can see their info.
Every asset—from admin console wireframes to sponsorship modules—is designed to accommodate new features, ensuring Hint Social can evolve smoothly over time.
