Refined Problem Statement
App: MyLife
Description of app: This app is a tool for college students to use to create a better college experience. This app allows students to connect and network with other students and their peers within the area.
Before you get started with the app you take a survey that allows you to select your interests and what you want your dream life to look like. This survey will ask you questions such as what extracurricular would you like to be a part of, what lifestyle choices would you like to start implementing in your life, what motivates you, etc.
Then the app will notify you of events/extra circulars that you might find interesting to attend and will give you tools/suggestions and videos to follow to help you implement the selected lifestyle choices that you would like to apply to your life. A portion of the app also has an area where you can chat and connect with people who have the same interests and morals as you. In addition, it will help you to try to keep your life balanced and on track.
