Week 5: Competing Design Ideas

This post is a layout of the two designs I plan on possibly implementing for the main screen on my app. To recap, the purpose of my app, called everybite, is to help the user in creating a meal-plan schedule and remind them when and how to eat with a series of friendly questions and feedback questions.

This first design is a simplified layout that features a large clock in the center which displays meal times along with the current time and displays the friendly AI helper who will prompt the user with questions and helpful advice. This design mainly addresses the question of how can users most effectively and efficiently view all over their data. All of the events are clearly visible on the one screen in the clock and by tapping the clock a user would be able to pull up a separate calendar list menu where they can configure the individual events.

The second design is a tab layout that is designed to provide more specific data to the user in a immediately available format. This design addresses the question of how can we better organize the data in the app. It accomplishes this by putting each of the major functions of the app such as the clock, calendar, and coach into their own separate tabs so that each function can be separate from the others but yet still easily accessible by a single tap.

(P.S. This post is a little late but per the email that you sent out I hope this is okay)
