What this question tests

Whether the candidate can talk about product taste with genuine, specific reasoning rather than a generic answer.

How to approach it

  1. Pick one or two apps genuinely used often, not a list of famous apps for effect.
  2. Explain the specific job the app does well, like a habit tracker that reduces friction to log an entry to one tap.
  3. Point to a concrete design or product decision that stands out, not just 'it's simple'.
  4. Connect the reason to product principles, such as reducing steps to value or strong default settings.
  5. Mention one thing that could still be improved, showing critical thinking rather than pure praise.
