Sprint Review: Research

Allyson Oberts

Objectives

• SIP

• Create an app that allows for its’ users to connect to a local groceries store’s

inventory system to shop for daily or weekly items from that store, and even have

the items waiting for them at the store at a requested time.

• Sprint

• Research what types of store apps are currently available

• Pay special attention to user interfaces and naming schemes are being used.

• Sprint Backlog:

• Identify 5 or so companies that have apps or online stores. (30mins)

• Download apps and test them out. Identify good and bad features of each. (3-4 hour)

• Compose a list of ideal features for my app. (1 hour)

Showing off the Work(white hat)

• Neither connect to local store (unless on item by item basis)

• Both are designed for online shopping and delivery

• Target has a nice menu

• Neither store app have great search menus

Showing off the Work(white hat)

• Ness has a nice search bar

• Refine your search drop down

• popularity or distance

• Range (.3-15 miles)

• Price ($, $$, $$$, $$$$)

• Hide (places I’ve rated, big chains)

How I feel about the Project(red hat)

• I am feeling pretty good about it.

• There isn’t an app that will have the

exact same feature as the one I will

create currently available.• I’ve gained good insights on how the

final app should and should not function.

Things that went well(yellow hat)

• Finding apps

• Downloading apps

• Exploring apps

• Making list of good/bad features

Things that went not so well(black hat)

• There are many apps in progress

currently.

• Trying to come up with the

“perfect” features

• Fitting the features all onto an app

resolution

Ideas to continue the Project(green hat)

• Create a few different interface

mock ups and

• Ask people to rate them.

• Ask people what they would like to

see on a store app.

Better Time Management(blue hat)

• Create a Gantt chart.

• Set aside specific time to

work on SIP.

• Set up reminders

• WORK ON IT!
