Last Updated on August 18, 2026 by Editorial Team

Answerly is a Q&A mobile app design concept made in Adobe XD. The freebie contains 2 mobile screens and it was created by Aryana Shakibaei.

Look closely at the two screens and you can see how deliberately the color scheme is doing the heavy lifting here. The home feed sits on a clean white background with a saturated cobalt blue header, while the question detail screen flips that ratio, dropping the user into a full blue canvas with a white card floating at the bottom for the answer. That kind of contrast is a smart way to separate browsing mode from reading mode without adding extra chrome or navigation.

The feed screen is built around familiar community app conventions: a profile avatar and greeting up top, a filter bar with category pills like General, Relationship, and Technology, a search field with a voice icon, and a card-based list of questions below.

Each question card carries the asker’s avatar, name, colored topic tags, the question itself in bold, a preview line of body text, and a footer row with response count, bookmark, and report actions.

That’s a lot of metadata packed into a small space, but the type hierarchy keeps it scannable. Bold headline text for the question, muted gray for the description, and small caps-style labels for actions all sit at different visual weights so your eye knows where to land first.

The detail screen answers the obvious next question: what happens when someone taps into a post. Here the question text turns white against the blue field, tags stay pill-shaped but shift to lighter tints for contrast, and the full body copy runs underneath at a lower opacity to signal secondary reading material.

The answer card at the bottom uses a subtle drag handle, a commenter avatar, a relative timestamp, and reaction icons for votes and likes. It’s a compact pattern that would work equally well for comment threads, forum replies, or even customer support tickets where one message needs to visually outrank the rest.

This kind of layout is worth studying if you’re designing anything in the Q&A, forum, knowledge-base, or community app space. It also translates well to advice platforms, tutoring apps, customer support tools, or any product where users post a question and others respond with tagged, categorized answers.

The pink floating action button on the feed screen is a nice detail too, since it breaks from the otherwise monochrome blue palette to flag the primary action of asking a new question, which is exactly what a floating button should do: highlight the one thing you want users to do most.

Adapting the Color and Content

If you want to reuse this concept for your own app, start by testing the blue against your own brand color.

Because the palette leans on one dominant hue plus white and a single accent color for the action button, it’s easy to swap in a different primary color without breaking the hierarchy.

Just keep the same contrast relationships: light background with dark header for the feed, full-color background with a white card for detail views.

Next, work through the tag pills and avatar placeholders.

  • Replace the sample names, avatars, and question text with real or representative content so stakeholders can judge readability.
  • Adjust the category tag colors to match your own taxonomy, keeping each tag pill short enough to avoid wrapping.
  • Check spacing between cards once you swap in longer or shorter question text, since real content rarely matches placeholder copy exactly.

Finally, think about how this pairs with the rest of an app’s screens. A login flow, a profile page, and a notification panel would all sit naturally alongside this style, since the header treatment and card patterns here give you a reusable template for the rest of the product.
