Hey folks
I've decided I should probably read some of the books I've bought in the last years before I bought any new, so I am starting today the reading of "Hooked: how to build habit-forming products".
As far as I was told, this is a book mostly about design, not coding or anything related.
Introduction
Habits are behaviors we have but don't think much about.
Companies should focus on creating habit-forming products.
The hook model is made of four parts:
1 - trigger: what starts the action, can be divided into external (ads, emails etc) and internal (psychological needs)
2 - action: the thing people do to interact with a product (click a button). Actions should be easy to do.
3 - variable reward: the result of the action. This result must change in order to get people hooked, the reward must not be predictable.
4 - investment: the user puts something into the product (money, time, data, etc) and that improves his experience for his next hook cycle.
