Background
For my final project in my “Visual Principles of the Screen” class, I applied all of the skills I had learned over the course of the semester.
Task
Create an app that solves a problem.
Approach
I chose to make an app that would help users find compatible roommates with similar interests. My target audience was college students looking to find suitable roommates. To create the app I researched dating apps to understand the characteristics that they use to determine compatibility. Through this project I learned the importance of making all cards, buttons, and images clickable to promote easy and quick use. I used Sketch to design the app and enabled it with Invision.
How the app works:
User inputs their information to create profile
User can use the filter option to filter their potential matches
If both users ”buddy” each other, they are a match
You can only chat with the people you have “buddied” with
