UX is the intangible feel, flow & simplicity design of a strategy that brings a solution. It uses all the UI controls to develop a good looking application.
UI refers to the aggregation of approaches and elements that allow the user to interact with a system. It is what users see when they access an application. It is responsible for everything that a user will see on the interface.
