This project was a final design app for the App Design class at the University of Michigan-Flint. The prototype app was designed to meet user needs by incorporating elements to make it easier to use. It explores multi-interaction by serving more than one purpose, allowing users to use one app instead of three or more. The concept for the app was to create one that improves communication between people. The issues the project regards as not keeping track of communication can lead to delays, such as late packages and losing a relationship, or it can develop mental struggles like stress and depression.

Designated Audience

1. Students - If they are struggling and in need of help, they can reach out to either professors or advisors (signing up for the next set of classes or asking questions about assignments.

2. Employees/Supervisors - If they have questions and/or need to reach out to specific co-workers (or a supervisor/boss)

3. Advisors - If they want to keep track of which students they can talk with in case they need their services (or other advisors to send students to)

The app combines features from previous apps into one. The app functions like the WhenIWork app but the user can log in and out of different accounts, such as for school or work. However, the message function in the app is similar to the Facebook Messenger app to create an easier interaction. Also, the calendar is like Google Calendar, where you can add more events or projects to it.
