Mobile App Exercise
This was a side project with the goal of creating a mobile app to support bird watchers participating in the yearly Christmas Bird Count.
To illustrate the concept, I researched and designed a "happy path" of a user successfully adding a bird sighting in the app. To walk through the flow, check out the interactive prototype. (Hotspots are enabled to show where to select on the screens).
My tasks included:
- Conducting research (subject matter, competitive analysis)
- Creating the user flow
- Mobile form design
- Visual design
- Creating an interactive prototype in Invision
Project Year(s): 2021
Tools: Paper & pen, Sketch, Invision, Photoshop
