Now that i have my idea sorted and especially one that i am happy with, i will start to sketch out some ideas and layouts for the smartwatch that will help me get towards actually designing the whole project.
I done some brief sketch’s to find which layouts i think will work best, i think overall i ended up with some good ideas and layouts which are going to help me greatly with the overall development of the project.
Here are all of the main sketch’s that i drew,
After these sketch’s i completed a user flow sketch out just to show what order the user would end up using the app to find the right outcome, here is what that user flow looks like,
I was very happy with how this quick user flow worked out and i think the whole approach to this idea is done quite well with the availability to view all the information you need and its also information that you would not end up receiving by using normal taxi companies.
I then sketched out the three main screens onto some Apple watch templates just for some final clarification on what three screens i was choosing to use and whether or not i thought they would be a good fit, and i am still confident that i am making the right decision with them. Here is the final three,
Now that i have a good idea for the layout i’m now going to start with my wire framing for the project. I also decided to design the lay-outs on the 42mm apple watch frame on figma as it seems to be the most common size with some owners of apple watches.
I started off the wire framing process with the three main screens that would be used for this app,
I tried to keep it very consistent and simple, i think it is an overall good layout, and i’m confident that it will look good whenever i began to actually style it with other typefaces and colours.
I also made these two introductory screens, for the first time that you actually open up the app you will be asked to create an account which there you would enter in all of the necessary features like your name, phone number and to use the precise location of the watch on phone.
I also came up-with a quick and easy brand name for this project, ‘EasyTaxi’ which i think is very representative of what i am trying to accomplish with this idea and project by making quick travel easier.
