  Attendance:   Kaja, Manus, Zach, Olivia Group leader:  Olivia Meeting Notes: reconsider features (weather, health info, implications of our actions) login and settings page - not functionalities PROTOTYPE PRESENTATION FEEDBACK Overview body of text on screen give text loads of space do not center the text (left align) highlight keywords the idea  -> the product (the customer doesn't want to hear the brief over again and again, they want to hear the solution) I or We  -> use third person ( our product  -> the product) the order of travel options is important (carbon, health, time, money?) saving time display options saving 1 hour=1 unit of happiness money display options % of a holiday 1 coffee careful so it's not just for students how many zlotys/czech crowns did you save Aims has to be measurable ( time/money management ) the rest are the aims of the product not just an app to display data -> make it interesting gamification target audience 1...

Attendance:  Zach, Kája, Manus, Olivia Group leader: Olivia Discussion before talking to Phil: Before our class with Phil we met to discuss where we are and what we needed to move forward with. Our main discussion was in relation to how we could implement the core feature of displaying information in real time. As advised by Dr.Ingo. We sketched a few rough ideas but struggled to implement them to our current designs.  Discussion after talking to Phil: After talking to Phil he advised us to take a step back and look at our project as if we starting afresh. We had a quick chat and decided that we all needed to draw up some brand new prototypes and to test them. Three of us had to go film for another module and Zach stayed back to work on prototypes. To do: -Take a step back and try and figure out the various problems with our idea and how we can fix them. -Rapidly create and test several prototypes

  Prototype presentation feedback don't read from slides survey who's your target audience? Unique Selling Point rewards - discounts for public transport personalized goals engaging visuals weather feature relevant? get more feedback based on our choices (driving, cycling, walking...) -> the tree? The green challenge Garmin when driving around, try to stay in the "green range" -> easy visual feedback to follow https://www.fia.com/news/garmin-joins-fia-smart-driving-challenge-promote-safe-and-environmentally-friendly-driving do more testing, more people

Prototype testing  Names: Fran, Angela, Amanda Ages: 58, 51, 37 Gender: Male, female, female What do you like about these designs?  Fran: I like the different shapes for the different watch brands, and how there's different options between compass directions and for readable directions Angela: Likes the idea of the tree growing and dying depends on how you're performing on the app Amanda: Likes the watch designs What feature stood out to you the most? Fran: The tree on the main screen Angela: The rewards for bus and train discounts Amanda: The rewards and discounts screen Is there anything you’d add to them?  Fran: Audio directions for when running or exercising on the maps Angela: Different options to turn the tree on and off Amanda: Maybe possible shopping discounts? Centra, SuperValu etc. Would you use our product after seeing these prototypes? Fran: Yes, I'm a runner myself so I think it's great Angela: Absolutely Amanda: Yes, the discounts for public trans...

  Prototype testing  Names: Garry, Jack, Jean Ages: 21, 20, 20 Gender: All male What do you like about these designs?  Garry: How the icons/layout fit and work on both phone and watch Jack: Icon’s make it simpler Jean: The layout on screen is designed nicely, home screen especially What feature stood out to you the most? All of them said the icons   Is there anything you’d add to them?  Garry: Nothing I can think of everything is there Jack: It has everything Jean: Watch and phone has outloud/speaker reading directions when walking/cycling Would you use our product after seeing these prototypes? Garry: Yes Jack: Yes it has many useful things Jean: Yes as it has all the features of apps I use but combined

 

  Things to note: Planting a tree isn't realistic Test on people for feedback Include more product brands Unique features are a plus

Attendance:   Kaja, Manus, Zach, Olivia Group leader:  Kája Meeting Notes: start testing prototypes make it exciting scenic/historical routes more fitness oriented interesting idea, test it is it solving the problem or is it just an interesting feature? watch too much detail on the watch face figure out how to show the map - does it have to be a map? - compass, other solutions a buddy changeable maps/themes create a solution that becomes a part of somebody's life a tree could be planted after every 15 km walked - needs more thought other features cheaper bus tickets points - rewards, competing with friends different age groups might not be as competitive  also consider weather (for walking, cycling) - one of the possible features? ask people what is important to them Manus's prototypes the tree is interesting can you incorporate it into other features? anything that's alive the Forest app set a timer for how long you want to work on the app on your phone, if you fail...

Attendance:  Zach, Kája, Manus, Olivia Group leader:  Kája Discussion: Today we met over video call to discuss ideas and how we were gonna go forward with our prototypes. We discussed some possible features and all decided to work on individual prototypes for the weekend, testing them extensively as we went on. We will then meet up before the next class, go over all of our ideas and create a combined prototype for the presentation. To do: Each team member will create and test several prototypes

 

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeZ4hJPoMgpSThCdNju54lENOQbohjvYCRZ06xtf_iQjAkEIQ/viewform?usp=sf_link  This is the first survey created to get potential customer feedback to help design our solution

What is it for?  To allow users to asses their travel options in relation to time,money, carbon footprint and health Who is it for? Adults (17-65) What must it do? Help people determine the costs and benefits of their everyday choices regarding personal travel and movement. List of functions Step counter Map Directions tool (shows car, bike, public transportation and walking routes) Car pool feature Friends feature Competitive aspect Reward feature

 Consider  What is it for? Who is it for? What must it do? Type of prototypes Proof of principle Paper prototype Visual prototype UX prototype Functional prototype Prototyping Make a list of functions you need and figure out whats relevant Rank your functions from most to least useful Make prototypes early and often The computer is just a tool  Constantly test Roleplay Paperwork Paper Rough sketches Paper Pop-Ups 1 primary colour, 1 or 2 accent colours Allocate different things in the paper test Paper edit is internal and the skeleton is external Roleplaying Introduce yourself Understand concerns Understand appeals Logistics Follow up interview

 

Attendance:   Kaja, Manus, Zach Group leader:  Zach Meeting Notes: various options for traveling - making choices in the app the goal is to create something people  want to use , they will get something from using it our  target group : anyone who drives a car, interest in health and fitness 17 - 65 years old, but mainly car owners students - more interested in the money aspect older users - more interested in health and fitness -> find out their priorities -> possibly a short questionnaire when logging into the app for the first time? -> a possibility to personalize the app Google maps loads of useless information (restaurants,...) think about how the data will be presented to the user Role play  -> put yourself in the place of the user

Pets: For extra engagement, give the option to add a pet of some kind to the game which is fed and exercised by walking or cycling. Examples of this kind of pet engagement would in Tamagotchi's or Nintendogs. This would obviously be more appealing to the younger part of the target audience, but it would be another reason to return back to the application daily. This could also be viewable in the watch, perhaps the pet moving with you on the map when walking to the shop etc. Themes for Maps: To make the map feature more interesting, we could implement different themes you could change it to as well as the regular map view (default like Google or Apple Maps). Examples of different themes could be underwater, desert, arctic, space, etc. These would make it look like your travel route is going through a particular theme. Again, this could probably be more interesting for the younger target audience, but would be a fun feature to increase engagement. Planting Trees: Another possible ide...
