App Prototyping/User Flows

—PROCESS

Breaking down the basic building blocks of what increases moods helped develop the navigation for the app. Aura needs to learn the user as fast as possible to provide recommendations on how to make the user's day better. Two ways were developed to make this happen. The user can manually go into system settings and answer questions about their preferences, or through Aura's progressive learning algorithm. After usability testing, features were added that users requested in order to increase it's appeal in the app store.
