Thursday Play #2 Orgami

Orgami is an unconventional note taking app. It’s UI and UX design is so creative that you actually will be surprised by how different it is. 14302848314786

First you will be surprised by its layout design. There is only one corner of the notebook one the home screen. You can categorize your notebooks by color. Slide on the top to easily change the category and double tap to enter the notebook.

It is a little bit confusing when it comes to diary panel. There is no working area or things we find normally on a note taking app. Instead of a paper, Orgami uses post-it size rectangulars to carry the content.

To be honest, it is indeed not that easy to use as a Memo app. You only can take notes by tapping on individual rectangular. Also if you tap on the wrong place, all the content of the note will be gone instantly.  Therefore Orgami is a very innovative app in terms of the UX. However, it is not an app for everyone!

thursdayplay 1 HIGH DIVE

14314213165369

 

High Dive was developed by The Frosty Pop Corps, they published few apps before but none of them received these much attention as High Dive.14314213714954

User needs to control of an athlete to jump into the water smoothly. In the game, the spray of the water is not the priority. It seems very easy at the beginning. But when the height starts to be raised, it becomes more difficult since the user needs to avoid to bump into birds or barriers before the athlete gets into the water.
