If the dog is “under the weather” the user is able to
enter any symptoms in which will link to a web site
and the application will be able to inform the user
on how bad the problem is and what precautions
the user should make.

If the problem is major
one, then the app will find
the nearest vets and will
tell the user how
urgent/serious the problem
is.

3. Role and contributions of team members
Baltej has worked on the project and shared the
ideas.
Ben began working on different sections and
discussed the ideas as we worked
Chris has worked on the wireframes on balsamiq

4. What have we learnt
We have learnt about the different types of
apps and users.
We learnt how to market research on
different app markets.
We learnt how to use the program called
Balsamiq to create the wire frame.
We have also learnt how
to determine the user
,who the application
applies to.

5. What was difficult about the project
Coming up with a good idea for an App, that had not
already been created was the hardest part.
Then using the Balsamiq mockup software was
quite difficult to get our head around but as our
skills developed it gradually got clearer and easier
to work out.
The market research was long and challenging too
as the market keeps on changing.

6. Market research
We carried out questionnaires to establish the
need and to gain understanding of our users. We
found a clear problem and a profile of our user
through our questionnaires.
We also did market research on all the apps
available and found no-free apps that addressed
the problem of how to care for a pet dog.

7. How many people
have a dog ?
Yes
No
Some feedback that we
sought after pitching
our idea

entices more users
,
This business model
has been used by
similar apps and has
proven successful
