Most designers “audit UX” but very few know what UX is actually protecting.
Here is this simple, practical UX Audit Guide you’re seeing in the infographic.
Because here’s the truth:
Over 90% of UX designers can’t answer this one question clients ALWAYS expect you to know:
What does UX really protect?
It’s not pixels, layouts, or fancy animations.Great UX is product’s first line of defense.
It protects the product from
Low retention
User drop-offs
Negative reviews
High support tickets
Poor conversion rates
And when we get UX right, it protects
User satisfaction
Accessibility
Consistency
Usability
Trust
They all work together:
↳ Usability keeps people moving
↳ Accessibility includes everyone
↳ Satisfaction turns users into advocates
↳ Consistency builds confidence
↳ Trust brings them back again and again
If UX audit isn’t checking these things, we’re not solving the real problem. UX isn’t a “nice to have.”It’s mission-critical.
UX isn’t protection by accident.
It’s intentional flows,
clear decisions,
tested assumptions,
and constant refinement.
Just visuals?
If UX only meant UI,
support tickets wouldn’t expose design flaws daily.
