What is User Scenario?

Overview

User scenarios are detailed descriptions of a user or user persona, that describe realistic situations relevant to the design of the solution. User landscape is a tool for visualizing the user journey while using your app.

A user scenario is an important exercise to understand the user and what they want from the product. This helps teams understand the intent, motivation, and context of the app's users. It involves high-level conceptualization and focuses on the "why" rather than the "how" of user goals and motivations.

A good user scenario requires strong research and storytelling to align disparate teams. For product managers and developers, building a "user landscape" provides a foundation of understanding for UX and UI design and development.
