App Task

Today we had to pitch our app for managing drink. We came up with the idea of tracking and having a diary of how much you drink, what you drink and hopefully it will help people whom drink a lot to cut down and then eventually quit.

- Can the team describe the need which the design satisfies ?
The app is to help people whom consume a lot of alcohol and want to cut down and eventually quit. They fill in a diary of how much they drink and are given health and cost benefits.

- Who are the potential users and what are the requirements ?
Users of the app are people who drink a lot and are willing to spend the time filling in the tracker to help them cut back hoping to improve their health and amount they spend on drink.

- Does the resulting design fit the requirements of the users (what are those requirements)?
The colour scheme is blue and white which relates to the NHS colours, giving a medical feel to the user. The app has a tracker which shows how much they could save on money and the effects it has on their health.

- Can they give a reasonable explanation of how they will gain long term sustainable income?
Advertising of alcohol linked sites.

- Is there opportunity for growing the service and income?
Perhaps add more apps such as smoking, dieting.
