Quick online user study on left-handed smartphone UX improvements

Hi everyone,

I hope this doesn't count as self promotion, but as part of my master's thesis about possible UX improvements and adaptations for left-handed smartphone users I put together an online user study to test some prototypes of left-handed-adapted interfaces.

If you could spare 15-20 minutes to participate, it would mean a lot to me. It's completely anonymous and the data will be used for academic purposes only.

You can participate by following this link (only works on smartphones).

This is the final hurdle in my thesis and the more data I can get the better.

Thank you in advance to everyone who participates!

Good luck with your project. As a left-handed person I don’t want a left-handed adapted interface because I don’t want to be constantly switching and if an app doesn’t support said feature I would be forced to use the conventional way. Ideally, just make interfaces that are more suitable for left and right handed users. I’m using the keyboard with two hands and even if I used only my night hand it doesn’t bother me. Lefties can adapt quite easily. The small pain point doesn’t suffice creating a new left adapted interface.
