Suggest one new feature to the Mentorship app and design the screens affected by this new feature.

Prerequisite:

  1. Install Mentorship Android App. Here is the link to the apk of the android app.

Steps:

  1. Explore the features of the Android App
  2. Think of one more feature which you think would make the app more useful.
  3. Come up with the list of screens in the app which would be affected by the addition of this feature.
  4. Draw the prototype of the screens affected. Feel free to use screenshots of the screens from the current app. You should maintain consistency with the current aesthetics of the app (Font, color scheme etc). Read more about usability here and this is a list of available tools for prototyping. These( 1 2 ) are two nice resources to give you an idea of the thought process that goes behind designing android apps.
  5. Create a pdf for work submission. The pdf should contain three sections. First section describing the feature you added. Second section listing the screens affect and the last containing images of the prototypes you created as well as the images of the screens as they look in the app right now (basically for every screen you changed two images: one showing how it originally looked like in the android app and another with the changes introduced by you).

Resources:

  • Here is a youtube video which walks through the different screens of the android app.
  • If you need help or get lost, post a "New Topic" in the design-tasks stream. (Tag assigned mentors, for quicker replies)

Work Submission:

  • Submit the prototypes in form of a single pdf.
