Overview

PlanMate is an iOS app that helps people better manage their time by creating daily agendas that track both events and tasks.

Upon completion of Intro to Digital Product Design, I decided to test my design skills by participating in a 2-week hack challenge in which I worked with front- and back-end developers to build a fully functioning app.

We ended up receiving an Honorable Mention for Best UI!

Context

“I’m kinda drowning… in work”

Life as a college student can no doubt be stressful. Aside from coursework, we also have to juggle meetings, club events and responsibilities, a social life, and at Cornell especially, coffee chats ☕️.

My team and I entered this hackathon two weeks before finals week and found ourselves struggling to balance this project with schoolwork. As we tried to set up work sessions around our busy schedules, we began throwing around ideas for an app related to productivity.

Ultimately, we decided to create an app to help students keep track of tasks AND schedule their day while on the go!
