About 2 years back I was approached from a friend of a friend of an associate about potentially helping out an entrepreneur develop a prototype for a smartphone OS native app. I had worked in developing mobile friendly website experiences before, but never an app, so I jumped at the chance to try something new. iPlann is a social planning app that helps people connect over upcoming plans and all have a voice in deciding what the group will do, when and how. This was a great opportunity for me to create an entire app experience from the seed of an idea, using a prototyping tool that I did not even know existed. Despite many hurdles and challenges, my prototype has helped facilitate a potential new way for people to make plans together on the smartphones. Currently an Alpha prototype is being developed to secure VC funding. You can view the demo I produced in the video included.
