During testing of a user sign-up flow for a web platform, I identified that the “Create Account” button became unresponsive after users corrected an invalid password entry. In my report, I included the environment details (Chrome vXX, macOS, staging site), clear step-by-step replication steps, expected result (button re-enables after valid password input), actual result (button remains disabled), screenshots, and a short screen recording. I labeled the severity as High since it blocked new user registrations and added notes about frequency (consistent across browsers), along with a recommendation to review front-end validation logic tied to password field state.

I approach identifying bugs by first understanding the intended user flow and product requirements, then systematically testing features across different devices, browsers, and scenarios to uncover inconsistencies or edge cases. When I find an issue, I document it clearly with step-by-step replication instructions, expected vs. actual results, screenshots or screen recordings, and environment details to make it easy for developers to reproduce. I also prioritize bugs based on severity and user impact, ensuring the most critical issues are addressed first to protect overall user experience.

Instagram is likely the strongest platform for Pinch’s audience because it naturally aligns with luxury beauty, wellness, and aspirational lifestyle content. The visual nature of Instagram — especially Reels, Stories, and before-and-after transformations — allows Pinch to showcase results while highlighting the elevated, in-home experience. It also provides strong geo-targeting and influencer collaboration opportunities within specific markets, making it ideal for driving both brand awareness and local bookings.
