Loop App

Adobe XD + IBM Creative Jam, 1st place winner

UX/UI Design, Mobile App Design

For this Adobe Jam, I teamed up with 4 other designers to design an environmentally conscious machine-learning app prototype within a 3-day timeline. I took the lead in the concept and UX planning phase, developing the user flow with habit-making and community-building in mind.

Our app took inspiration from school/work planner apps that break down complex tasks into smaller less-intimidating ones. Our emphasis was to create long-lasting environmental commitments in people by encourage daily participation and collaboration with friends.

Why do people find it hard to make small changes in their lives in order to help the environment?

It’s hard to continue a habit if it does not seem to have an immediate tangible effect. So we sought to gamify the experience of sustainable life and combined the concepts of a task-managing app and a social media app. We wanted to make the user feel like they were making a tangible difference in the world.

Onboarding

The app can be customized to suggest tasks that are important or easy to achieve for the user.  

After continued use the app would learn to recognize tasks that the user is more likely to complete.

In addition to envisioning the user flow and the concept of the app, I designed the icons for these areas of interest. 

Daily Tasks Screens

The importance and far-reaching impact of each task is outlined below the task.

The points achieved through finishing tasks grow a digital plant that once fully grown equates to a real tree that will be planted in the real world.
