Medium Saving Flow on iOS â Screen by Screen
This recording documents the Saving flow inside Medium on iOS, captured screen by screen from the live app. Rather than showing a static screenshot or a summarized case study, it preserves the full sequence â every transition, microcopy change, and UX decision â so you can study what Medium actually ships, not what they describe.
How Medium Structures the Saving Experience
The Saving flow is a specific moment inside the Medium experience, and studying it in isolation (while still showing it in the context of a real product) makes it easier to extract patterns you can apply elsewhere. Notice how Medium structures the flow: what it shows first, how it builds momentum, where it places friction, and how it handles completion.
A Real Reference for Saving Research
For designers researching Saving patterns, this recording gives you a direct, real-world reference. For Medium enthusiasts or competitors, it's a detailed look at how the brand approaches this specific user journey on iOS.
