the second milestone that’s expected in my final major project is having 3 different strong concepts that can shown and talked about in my group tutiral to see which one would fit my idea the most and the most potential of helping others out there, I find having milestones in my timetable is really helpful as it allows me to have a week target to work to or over work pushing myself to having the use of idea and week and not just sit around thinking too much.
Due to my idea being about service design I feel that I really want to design an app and research as really helped me see that a app would be used a lot more than a website that probably looked at once and forgotten about plus the nhs has got a website about the choices out there but it still very bias on what information they are.
While all three concept are different they also have some similarity to the ideas behind and how they would work for the female users, this makes me realise that I might end up merging one or two of the concepts later on to make a more final idea eaplaliy after getting some feedback on Tuesday with my peers, as my group very female based it can really push my idea forward and change it.
concept one/ take control
The concept one is based on females taking control of their birth control and being able to track if they’ve taken their birth control on time but also to have a space to track their moods and side effects, I feel that this really useful and sometimes humans go through changes and the side effects that showing could’ve help them realise earlier on what was going to happen, the app would help the females track their moods and issues and if the tracker start to pick up an out the normal issues it could highlight and give options of what support could help. the app would also have a profile that comes with each person so you fill in the information on yourself and it could help set daily reminders on you pill or next check up this to stop any issues happening ( hopefully making female lives easier)
features
- tracks moods and side effect
- personal profile to support each person
- it could give you advice – it’s to realise something up
- articles for certain topics that are readable at any point
- daily reminder to could set up but they’re based on the person
concept two/ female social community
Concept two will be an app where females can go on and feel comfortable to read different topics about issues they might have, they can also join in conversation that are going on the app just to support and help each female feel supported and educated about the topics, while the app is more about social side I feel that the app should have people reviews on the different options to try out, this can really help people relate and understand what they are going through right now and it’s very common and normal.
- a female base community
- make join in conversation
- females can leave review about their time on something – gives more detail
- ask for support on issues that their dealing
concept three/ find what’s right
The last concept is more about helping the younger teens find out about the different options and read into them without the nhs being bias on the choices, people can fill questionnaire to see which ones will suit them best while the user can also read other people opinions and experiences on the choices that are out, this will allow to know more about the topics, to make the app more fun having different swiping movement like tinder could be used you go through the profile the pro’s and con’s are and end up with a final match.
- an app tells you in detail about the different choices
- people can review their experiences
- design an account and it show you more help of what right
The concepts I feel that I’m leading more to is concept one and it will allow everyone to feel commutable with tracking and understand their own body but I think concept two would merge well with concept one to be a stronger app that can support people out there with their uses and worries making them realise not all fit one and that they’re not allow and it’s okay to go bad experiences to find the right one
