Brandon Palmer | Three Things I learned from the critique | Weather & Calendar App

Problem 1 | Calendar Events

The first thing our group learned from this weeks critique was that our app needs to connect the calendar events to the reward system. There is a major loop hole in which users can easily check off their events to gain points. (Not Good)

Problem 2 | Animations

The second problem that needs iteration pertains to the functionality of our animated character. When the user interacts with the time dial. The sequential transition of the character stays the same as the local weather. Creating misalignment with the modified times.

Problem 3 | Achievements

The main hook of our application that separates it from competitors are the unique characters. The user can be rewarded for new accessories that can either treat or torture your weather buddy.

Main focus

Overall our main objective is to connect the characters to the calendar events giving the users the incentive to complete their daily goals.
