8 years ago 💯 Good milestone!
App:
- pros: easy name to say/remember. you can tell a good story with this app and connect with the audience easily.
- suggestions: the name is a little too common/general.
Survey:
- impressive that you have 37 respondents. It clearly shows that people are interested in the social issues
- suggestions: ask for people's (optional) contact info so you can follow up with more questions later or even get them to try out your app
Wireframe:
- Great job creating a good flow
- Suggestions: identify the most important screens for your app.
- If you have a screen that wow your users. What screen would that be?
- Will you use any local or push notifications for the app? If yes, it'd be good to include those screens in the mocks as well.
User stories:
- Should you include uploading a short video?
- Should users be able to draw something on a photo to highlight an issue?
- Should other users be able to add more photos to an issue?
- Should “share on facebook” be optional?
- Facebook is the #1 source of info for people to raise and share infos. How do you make sure to link it back to your app?
- Should users vote on an issue?
- Should users get points or reputation for reporting issues?
- Nice to have: can you convert an existing facebook post into an issue? The number of likes on that issue is an important piece of data as well.
- What actions do people take when they view an issue? Interested | Not Interested | Angry?
- Can sharing an issue be simpler? Maybe someone posts a pic but others can contribute to labeling what's wrong in the pic?
Inspiration and misc:
- What are some apps that inspire you when you design this app? See http://seeclickfix.com/, http://www.cityofboston.gov/doit/apps/commonwealthconnect.asp and https://www.fixmystreet.com/
- What are some apps that build very strong communities of users reporting content? E.g. Waze, Nextdoor, etc.
- How will the app help the city management solve problems? Check out the city of boston link above
- What are the most common categories of issues that you have right now? Having too many issues will be distracting. Using a nice tableview with animation and in large rows or in a grid can be eye catchy.
- Lastly, please remember to plan and scope your features carefully because you don't want to try to do too much. You need a basic functional app in 1 week and a demo-able app in 2 weeks, so that you can focus on presenting your product, polishing the UI/UX and fixing bugs.
Great job! Look forward to the next milestone 🎳
Hi there, We submitted our app's user stories, wireframes and survey in the README file. Please take a look.
