Solution models, Strategy and innovation

At the stage of gathering and analysing information, the user story was more important, useful and helpful to the extent that I decided to make use of the feedback gotten from them because they will be the ones in use of the services. The diagram below shows the paper prototype before and after the users feedback.

version 2 of my wire frame

The video below shows the first version of the prototype tested by the user, the reason for doing this is to test and see if their needs are met and it is easy to navigate, by doing this I was able to progress with the app creation process, I was able to take note of the users preferences and at the same time, I was able to learn from the user what update is required. Brainstorming has been performed for the future versions and this was done iteratively.

The user confirmed that they would like smooth access to someone that will make them feel much better than they feel instead of driving long distance to see a phycologist, the new requirement was worked on and released for use (Agile project management methodology).

The current strategy in place is to ensure that the app meets the technological standard of the world and works alongside assisted technology for well-being like monitoring your sleep, mood, blood pressure and stress level.

Basically, in future, the app will alert the user on things that will help their mental health like alerting them about a new restaurant in town, a concert coming in town, and a new place to have fun.

The future plan is that the app should be recommended by health bodies (e.g. NHS) to help both the young and older people, male and female, students and workers, employees and employers dealing with mental issues so that they can all be happy. This a convergent thinking for the long term.
