Description
With the evolution of smartphones and rise in their popularity, mobile applications have become a booming concept. Mobile applications connect users with things they value most. With the growing need of mobile applications, mobile app design is quickly becoming a sought-after skill. By learning the intricate process of mobile app design, individuals can learn new and innovative ways to express their creativity while providing useful products. During times such as the recent pandemic, mobile applications are especially useful because people would often times feel alone from spending a majority of the year in quarantine while being overwhelmed with all of the new information about COVID-19 being released on a daily basis. While researching mobile applications, I decided to design and program an Android-based mobile app that would help users to track the severity of COVID-19 and help users to decide what precautions to take. The data in the application is gathered by using API-keys to receive data from US government official public health websites. Throughout my creation of the mobile application, I discovered six stages of mobile app design that create an efficient implementation process. The critical stages of my mobile app design process are highlighted throughout my research poster.
