Capital One's mobile app has grown without a scalable structure, cramming all new features into the "More" menu.

Over the past 10+ years, the growing importance of a mobile-first banking strategy has become undeniable. However, the rigid structure of the mobile app hinders users' ability to navigate the app effectively, posing a major risk to overall user experience and engagement.
