YourLocals
university of toronto, 2018
a semester course where my group and i came up with a hypothetical app that can be used. we designed low and high fidelity wireframes to find the best functionality for our application.
our application hoped to connect locals to tourists, which allow tourists to experience a place through the guide of a local. our initial idea stemmed from wanting to have a specialized experience when travelling by choosing to focus on hidden gems around the city, and not the typical popularized tourist destinations.
we also noted existing competition: yelp! and airbnb.
each individual frame, from signing up, to check out stage.
we used proto.io to help us design and test out how smooth the application would run.
video screen recording
this is a screen recording of our application on proto.io to see how it functioned as an overall application. because it is a free app, there are some issues with transition between the screens. however, the website helped us visualize the idea of our app and helped us go from imagination to reality.
