ThursdayApp_Night Sky

Night Sky is a stargazing reference APP. It allows users to explore a virtual representation of the night sky to identify stars, planets, constellations, and satellites.

After the onboarding view, the users will be asked if they allow the app to use their GPS location.

By using the phone to scan the sky, users can identify stars, planets, constellations, and satellites. The idea is cool and I also like the beautiful visual effect of the interface.

 

ThursdayApp_GOAT

GOAT is the App that provides a platform for users to buy or sell sneakers. Since that there are more and more fake sneakers now, users are afraid of buying fake sneakers on the Internet. What GOAT does is to build a reliable connection between sellers and buyers. Sellers who want to sell sneakers have to send their sneakers to GOAT first. After verifying that the sneakers are authentic, GOAT will deliver the sneakers to the buyers.

I really like the mechanism of GOAT. It’s a great way to protect the rights of buyers and sellers. Here is UI of the APP.

After signing up, users are required to choose their shoe size, which helps users to escape the inconvenience of choosing shoe size every time.

There are four icons in the tap bar: buy, search, sell, profile.

 

In the buy view, there are three icons in the navigation bar: BUY NOW, RELEASES and TRENDING, which is another flash point of this APP. The “Trending”  choice enable buyers to see the price variation curve and the tendency of the price, which helps buyers to compare the price and helps them to make decisions.

 

For me, I love the visual style of this app. It is clean and clear, which allow users to interact with easily. What’s more, the black block gives users instant feedback during the interaction and tells them where they are.

The feedback we got from the presentation:

  1. The scenario is inappropriate. The “lying” scenario is easy to make users feel uncomfortable.
  2. The advice is too specific.

Week 14_Eric & Chris

This week, we design an add-on for our dating app. The add-on we chose was Apple Watch. Since that the screen of Apple Watch is quite small, the interaction between users and the interface is limited. Therefore, we tried to use Apple Watch as the supplement of our app.

In the application on Apple Watch, users are able to see the profile of other users and slide left or right to “like” or “dislike” people from the matching list. What’s more, if the users are connected with others successfully, the application will send notifications to users to remind them.

 

The feedback we got from the presentation:

  1. The function of the add-on is limited, try to explore more function and use AI in it.
  2. The notification view does not look real. We should refer to the HIG of the Apple Watch and make it looks real.
