  • Ace app design

    This is the final design for my app. I have added all of the information, colour, text, images, gifs and components so that it flows well and is easy for both students and tutors to use. When booking a session I changed it so that if you don’t necessarily want to book a session immediately…

  • App wireframes

    For the wireframes I first looked at my competitor apps to see how they structured the app. A lot of the apps were structured in a similar way with all of them having similar pages. I took inspiration from this because if a lot of them followed the same structure of ideas it must mean…
