SustainMe

DATE OF COMPLETION

9th May 2023

Purpose

This was part of a university Project for second year of IXD

Brief

I was asked to design an application which could be used to inform and improve people on the enviroment and how they can become a greener person.

Outcome

The end product was a fully developed prototype and designed software that allowed users to measure their carbon footprint and participate in actions that were financially rewarded to minimise it.

CONSIDERING THE USER THROUGHOUT

In developing my sustainability app, I placed a strong emphasis on considering the user at every stage of the process. From the initial concept to the final design, I ensured that the app's features and functionalities were tailored to meet the needs and preferences of its users. I conducted thorough user research and incorporated their feedback to create an intuitive and user-friendly interface. The app provides clear instructions and guidance, making it accessible to users of all backgrounds and levels of sustainability knowledge. I also implemented personalized features, such as customizable goals and progress trackers, allowing users to monitor their environmental impact and celebrate their achievements. By prioritizing the user's experience, I aimed to empower individuals to make sustainable choices effortlessly and contribute to a greener future.

KEEPING THE USER IN THE LOOP

Keeping the user in the loop has been a top priority while using my sustainability app. I incorporated various mechanisms to ensure continuous and transparent communication with the users. Through push notifications and regular updates, I provided real-time information on sustainability trends, new features, and relevant news. By fostering an open and responsive environment, I aimed to create a sense of community and collaboration, where users felt heard and valued in their sustainability journey.
