Robinhood succeeded at making investing feel approachable. The clean interface, confetti celebrations, and simplified flows brought millions of new investors into the market. The design challenge now is that those same simplifications can feel patronizing as users become more sophisticated, and the addition of crypto, options, and cash management has added complexity without proportional design investment.
