high-fidelity prototype finished in 04 Dec. 2018
The paper design showed are done by me. Here I would not show my teammates' paper prototype design works, one reason is that they chose my paper design as the reference to complete later high-fidelity prototype by an online tools called Proto.io. The high-fidelity prototype was created by CHUNG Yin Ting
and me together.
Design Report
- The product statement
The LostSavior is a mobile app platform that enables users easily to post notice for missing items and easily to post the information of the lost they found, and help to connect the loser and finder. This project also has generated UI code.
- System functions
Consider this is a new concept application and the most users will be the novice users, so we simplify the operate process. We delete the functions of write the article about lost and find experience, and the function of share the lost and found information. For the sorting function, original it was located at the searching result page, we move it into the filter section and locate it at the top of the filter section. The sorting function will support two type sorting: one according date, another according name.
For the profile page, we haven’t design the specific functions in the paper prototype. So, we add specific functions in the “Profile” pages for user convenience. In the profile page, the welcome info and user name are showed. A list of choice includes “Profile Info” “Your lost” “Your pick up” “FAQ” “Feedback” “Setting” is showed. Tap to page of “Profile Info”, user can view their detailed account information and do modification of head image, account name and bound personal email. “Your Lost” page records the lost you have found through the application, and “Your Picked Up” will record the post you published to find the owner of the lost you picked. “FAQ” will prepare answers about the common question user might ask about this APP, and the simple guideline to use this APP. “Setting” will allows user to do some personal privacy control, notification control and cache clean function. Specific control elements can be viewed in the prototype.
Following is my paper prototype draft design.
