Diya received a new design, and at the beginning of 2024, the government services application will become Open Source

by alex

The launch of the redesigned application “Diia” became part of the current presentation of the Diia Summit – the first since the beginning of a full-scale war, which was opened by the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky. We will talk about new services in Dii in a separate article, but here we will focus on the updated design of the application.

Updating the “Diya” design – for the first time in 4 years

The redesign of “Diya” did not come as a surprise – it was announced the day before. Why the previous design is outdated was recently discussed in a special podcast by Mstislav Banik (head of development of electronic services at the Ministry of Digital Development) and Vova Smirnov (author of the design of the mobile application and web portal “Diya”, the new design of Diya.Osvita, founder, design director at Spiilka Design Büro, art director at Megogo).

During today's presentation, the head of the Ministry of Digital Transformation and Deputy Prime Minister Mikhail Fedorov drew attention to the key goal of the redesigned application – inclusivity, convenience and simplicity.

Among the key changes are a dynamic background (which is also an additional element of protection against counterfeiting), a unified style with enlarged images of documents, updated icons and menus, as well as a new personalized Strichka section, adjusted to the individual needs of users. Judging by the description of the presentation, the function of this section is everything important and potentially useful (services, alerts, news) in one place.

In fact, the “Diya” interface, by analogy with the recent Chrome design update, was redrawn in the Material You style (the current generation of the design system that replaced Material Design with the release of Android 12). The updated “Diya” is already available – if automatic updating is enabled on your smartphone, the new version will be downloaded and installed automatically. Or you can download and install it yourself from the Google and Apple app stores.
