UX stands for user experience. A user's experience of an application is determined by how they interact with it, does it feel smooth and does the user understand the flow of the application or does it feel confusing and messy?

UX designer is concerned with the interface of the application.
They are in charge of how the interface operates. They define
the structure and the functionalities within the application
UX designers work to replace a lousy user experience to
that of an intuitive and interactive one!
