Should I be a UX designer or a UI designer?
The main difference to bear in mind is this: UX design is all about the overall feel of the experience, while UI design is all about how the product's interfaces look and function. A UX designer considers the user's entire journey to solve a particular problem; what steps do they take?
Why do people say UX instead of UI?
The key difference between UI and UX is that the UI is how it looks, and the UX is how it works. By definition from the Nielsen Norman Group, “'User experience' encompasses all aspects of the end-user's interaction with the company, its services, and its products.”
Can I call myself a UX designer?
If you're working for an agency or an established company with a project focussed mindset, and are more focussed on the conceptual elements of design than the more traditional graphic elements, you're probably a UX Designer. And if you sit in the middle or bounce between the two, you can probably call yourself either.
Are UX designers also UI designers?
UX and UI design are related but not exactly the same. UX design involves managing the user journey as they interact with a product or service, while UI design focuses on the actual construction of that product or service's interface. UI design is usually considered part of the UX design process.
