Based of the introduction in the UG, there is no mention of what type of students it is targeting. As such, the application could be targeting primary school students, secondary school students, polytechnic students etc so long as they satisfy all of TP's constraints (e.g. fast typer). That in itself is unclear. I had to guess from the disproportionate number of user stories in DG that this is meant for a university student and specifically NUS student. It is not mentioned that they were targeting NUS students in the UG. As such, this is a medium severity bug type since it was very difficult to assess the true target users of the application

Team's Response

While the app is optimized to be used by NUS students, the features provided are still useful for any other students, be it primary school students, secondary school students, polytechnic students or university students as all students will find a use for task and event scheduling. As such, it is not incorrect that the UG mentions that this app can be used by all students.

However, it is correct that it could be clarified that the app is optimized for NUS students in the UG. This is especially after future iterations where we plan to implement an import feature to import calendars from NUSMods that could not be implemented within this iteration (v.1.4.0). Nonetheless, even with such features added, the developers still welcome any students that can find value in the other features of UniMate to use it.
