This study examines the factors that can facilitate navigation pattern forinexperienced users of mobile applications for the creation of a mobilegraphical interface. In this study, the navigation is created with the help ofclick surfaces in the graphical interface, which can cause usability problemson small screens.A qualitative study has been made and two methods used are Card Sortingand user testing that included interviews and observations. The Card Sortingmethod allowed users to organize and structure the contents of the system ina way that seemed appropriate for them. How the users chose to structure thecontents was then helpful when the system was created. Interviews andobservations were then made with the users while they tested the system.This was done with five test persons four times during the course ofdevelopment to have the users involved in the development process.The results of this studie are presented with different methods of how tocreate useful navigation in mobile interfaces. A prototype for a payroll andtime reporting system was created based on the literature search and based onthe results of the survey user testing.This study shows that it is difficult to make a mobile website useful to allthose who will use it, but to implement certain aids can increase the usabilityfor many users. The study conducted in this work shows that some importantfactors in the creation of mobile applications is to use large clicks surfaces,use the full screen, and to constantly give users feedback.
