=First Experiment: Prox= | |||
The New Mobile Experience team pursued further development and exploration of a location-based mobile app following a successful design sprint in San Francisco in mid-September 2016. The team started working on an early prototype/MVP of an app, currently called Project Prox. Project Prox is an iPhone app that helps you decide what to do next, based on your current location. It’s like a travel guide with only a few pages - but those pages are always about interesting places just a few minutes away. | |||
Unlike most travel apps, we want Project Prox to be put away as quickly as possible, and useful to everyone -- even people who hate planning. We’re bringing together data from a variety of sources on the web and combining that into a mobile-first experience optimized for quick decisionmaking….without requiring a lot of user interaction. For the especially curious, we’ve made it easy to dig into the web for more help. | |||
Why use it? Are you selfish and lazy when traveling? Everybody is, and Project Prox is designed for you. We want Project Prox to be the difference between “I totally wasted my time” and “I had a great day” (we very nearly called it #fomo) | |||
