Low Fidelity Prototype

Use Case 1: Syncing Calendars

The above image shows low fidelity prototypes for entering the application and entering event calendar/dates. The first screen displays a form for users to enter their name and log in with their google account. The second screen allows users to allow access to using their google account information. The last two screens allow users to create a new event, entering the event name, event dates and times. After entering event information, the users can invite friends.

Use Case 2: Find Common Times

The above image shows low fidelity prototypes for inviting/viewing friends and finding common times to meet up. The first screen shows a form for inviting friends by their Gmail. This leads users into a screen that shows all of the available times for all invited friends. If the invited friend has not accepted the invitation, the availability is not shown. For friends that have accepted the invite, available times are listed. At the bottom of the page, users can see the best meeting time based on the available times. Users can then create an event with the best meeting time. Users can also view the invited friends using the “view friends” button, and can choose to invite more friends. 

Use Case 3: Create Polls

The above image shows low fidelity prototypes for voting on an activity with friends. The first screen shows what users would see if they want to view the event created with the best meeting time. They can see the time of the event, invited friends, name of the event, and the location of the event. Users can vote on the location/activity of the event. They can also send a google calendar invite for the invite. When users click vote, they are able to see a sidebar where they can create a new poll or view and vote on an existing poll. When creating a new poll, users can search for an activity/location. 

Key Changes: The polling feature was revised from being a sidebar to being its own page in the final prototype for clearer call to actions in the navigation bar and better accessibility from any page.

Key Changes: Viewing your availability was changed from a list of times to a calendar view visible as monthly, daily, or weekly views. As a result, users are better able to visualize their available meeting times.
