The app that helps rank the order in which to complete tasks
Problem
With the amount of internships, clubs, and classes that college students have, it can be very difficult to prioritize the most important tasks first and which ones to wait to complete.
Solution
For a group project, we decided to create an app that will rank tasks that are entered based on what order you should complete them. This app will be able to determine what task should be completed first based on how important or urgent it is.
Mockups
We started off by making simple paper prototypes of how we should layout the app from our first impression. We decided that users should be able to view different categories and be able to rank tasks based off how urgent or important it should be. Over to the right is a picture of our original prototype
With the feedback from user testing, we decided to adjust our prototype and added a few changes including
Changing the order of what steps needed to be completed in order to add a task to the current list.
Added more back buttons and tried to incorporate signals to tell the user the function of each button
Feedback
Final Product
After the user testing and fixes to the mockups, we felt like we were ready to move forward with our idea. We started designing the layout of our app and took in account the suggestions from our users to create the final version of our app named DO IT!
Background
We have all been overwhelmed during some point of our life with the large amount of tasks or chores that we have to do. For many college students, the amount of classes, clubs, and internships could create a huge amount of stress that they would not know where to start. There might be tasks that are arguably more important than others, but it would be so difficult to notice this because of how many tasks need to be completed. This can be difficult for college students and they might not complete their tasks in the most efficient way possible
From showing users our mockups, we were able to find some problems that users were able to find
Accessibility: Users found it difficult to be able to traverse through the app because of the lack of back buttons and instructions
Organization: It was too difficult to find everything that the user was looking for such as trying to delete tasks when completed
