Abstract

The development of applications that helps urban mobility has been pushed by the increase of processing capacity and miniaturization of the mobile device as well as the improvement of speed and availability of Internet. Such applications can support users in several activities such as tracing routes and searching for addresses. In this scenario, this work aims to: (i) understand how users use urban mobility applications; (ii) evaluate the quality of interaction and interface into real applications called “Waze” and “Meu Ônibus”; and (iii) improve the applications based on the results of the evaluations. Moreover, this study also suggests a set of recommendations for urban mobility applications in developing countries like Brazil.
