Michigan Herptile Tracking App

This mobile app is designed to track and record herptiles within Michigan. We began the process by interviewing our sponsor and understanding what a typical user looked like and how they may interact with our app. The design, of which one screen can be seen above, was designed to be used outdoors, so we focused on creating something that could be understood regardless of conditions. The typical user could know everything about a particular species or only know the name, so the information entry needed to be modular. Our team designed and built an Android app and worked with graduate students to facilitate user testing. We focused on programming the app as a proof of concept and with enough functionality to allow for testing.
