Drivers

Understand user influences + motivators

Drivers are the key motivators and influencers that shape user behavior and decision-making within your app. They help you understand what propels users to engage with your product, make certain choices, or take specific actions. By identifying and analyzing these drivers, you can tailor your app's features, messaging, and overall user experience to better align with user needs and goals.
