- Other newsy highlights such as GoToâs CEO stepping down and WhatsApp rolling out a new feature in Singapore --------------------------------------------------------------- Hello {NAME} In the past, whenever I used apps, I often didnât put much thought into how they worked as I focused more on what a certain feature could do for me. Sometimes, new updates would come along to shake things up a little, and of course Iâd then fall into one of two camps: liking the change or hating it. It was all rather straightforward. Now that Iâve been around the tech scene for a while, Iâve become a little more aware of how these apps work, as well as the amount of effort and thought that goes into them. Little things like a UI change, for instance, can go a long way in helping users achieve a certain goal. Maybe adding a specific feature can make the overall customer experience much smoother. These things matter, which is why itâs important to have product managers who know what theyâre doing - and thereâs few out there better than Yuhki Yamashita, chief product officer at design platform Figma. Todayâs premium story recaps his keynote session at Tech in Asiaâs recent Product Development Conference, where he shared lots of personal experiences and insights. -- Jonathan
