Reflection- Storytelling

Challenge:

People tend to like products which are available for everyone and which are easy to use. Due to the  present circumstances, with all the free time we have on our hands people are taking a step towards   having a healthy diet and routine to stay fit and strong. With over 165,000 fitness apps available  there are a lot of options to choose from. I have an idea of making an app which helps people focus  on having a balanced diet and proper workout routines. So, I decided to share my design through  storytelling.

Selection:

I used the story-telling tool which puts the human beings and their experience front and centre.  Gives us a chance to empathize with them and put their needs forward and prioritize what is  important and what works. It has always been an important part of the business. Looking at it  through other people’s point of view and seeing what works for everyone is an essential part of this  design thinking tool.

Application:

During the process of designing I came across different versions of the things people wanted to  have in a healthcare app and picked out the most common ones and the ones which people  genuinely found to be necessary. Collecting feedbacks and learning what was wrong with it and  what could’ve been done better helped in a lot of ways. It helped me shape a concrete idea of what  an ideal diet and fitness app would look like. Due to the creation of different stories and explaining  them to the audience taking their insights on it was a potential way towards proper idea generation.

Insight and approach:

Due to this brainstorming session and idea generation and the design thinking tool of storytelling  and hours of discussion with my peers, the base foundation of this app got strongly set in my head.  My app “workeatz” can perform various functions such as allowing users to set fitness goals,  tracking caloric intake, gathering workout ideas, and sharing progress on social media to facilitate  healthy behaviour change. It is a platform to promote healthy behaviour change with personalized  workouts, fitness advice and nutrition plans.  Adding elements and creating competition among  friends and family, fitness apps can help incentive users to be more motivated. A proper user  interface and specific goals are provided for  boosting and enhancing performance during exercise.

My peers gave me their own feedback on how to improve upon certain areas of my app and gave  valuable suggestion on how I could market it to the consumers. They understood my struggles and  related to it as they also had similar experiences to myself. This improved my self-confidence and

gave me hope that my app could have a bright future if it is released in the near future. As of this  moment, my app is still under development but the future for it looks bright.
