H. Design Review Summary

Goals of Design Review

• Receive feedback on:

  • Layout and format of our app

  • Select a body part feature

  • Exercise options (strength, stretch, and recover)

  • Focus on Accessibility, Ability, and Awareness

• Questions to ask

  • Is the app easy to follow?

  • Should we add in our stand up watch idea?

  • Does our app meet our users’ needs?

Mission

• To integrate physical activity in elderly people’s lives through Accessibility, Ability, and Awareness

• How did we come up with this?

  • Interviews:

    • Not looking to workout, rather maintain their physical abilities

    • Motivated by living independently

  • Research:

    • Most elderly people are satisfied with their lives, not looking to be stronger

    • Don’t exercise because it is too tiring

• There are rarely elderly people in gyms, so why target that subgroup?

  • Conclusion: People know that working out is good for them, but they just need a boost

Developing our Design

• We looked at things that worked:

  • Stand up app

  • Apple watch/Fitbit

• Physical solutions did not satisfy our non-functional requirements

  • We are targeting are users’ mental mindset

• An app is the best possible solution to solve our users’ problem

• Survey showed that our users want education and reminders
