Usability Testing

After creating our iPhone prototype, we performed extensive usability testing by creating several scenarios for the users to complete, such as changing settings and creating walks. We sat with 10 different users and recorded their thoughts. We also allowed them to freely interact with the prototype and explore its functionality. Our tested users felt that they were to connect and learn about our suggested personal and destination profiles, and felt comfortable exploring and experimenting within suggestions without feeling restricted. As this was a major concern, we feel that this is a very positive result.

Users did have difficulties with several icons and labels, which needed to be clarified. In addition, users wanted more control and access to favorites and invitations. They wanted as much detail as possible when browsing destinations as well.
