20 Minuten tests beta version with users

A complete relaunch of the 20min.ch website and app is planned for spring 2020. As of today, users of 20min.ch can access a beta version of the new website in addition to the conventional news site. The aim of the beta version is to test the new website with users in the run-up to the relaunch and to continue developing it on the basis of their feedback.  

A 17-member team from Tamedia, Notch Interactive and other partners in co-creation are responsible for the development of the new responsive website. 

The new site is being developed along the lines of "Lean Start-up". This means that new features will be introduced quickly and tested with the community. In the beta view, registered users are given the opportunity to provide feedback on the new news view and to rate individual features directly. A live ticker informs users at all times which feedback has already been implemented and which new features are available for testing.

Christophe Núñez, project manager of the new digital presence, is pleased: "The go-live of the beta version is an important milestone in the development process of the new site. The users 

are at the center of all our considerations. That's why we look forward to exchanging ideas with them and take the feedback and evaluations very seriously."

The beta version is available at Beta.20min.ch for the news section on desktop and mobile devices in German- and French-speaking Switzerland. Users must register to test the beta version.
