A well-articulated Design Problem with supporting research and justification  


Design Problem - People who share financial obligations, such as a couple living together paying for numerous bills, have to find a system to manage their cash flow and output, making sure every bill gets paid. Many couples have different ways to manage money as it is a non-standard practice. 


Pull research from survey (what do people currently use, what's their level of satisfaction with it, what are their pain points)

A well-articulated Research Question with supporting research and justification

Research Question -  How can UX strategies be used to create a more effective and comprehensive financial tracking software/app/experience for couples?

Pull research from survey on what users want and need from a financial management app.
Pull from studies looked at (How to Talk Money with your Honey)

SME and DME summations including bios and intended use

SME - yet to be identified. In contact with an accountant.

DME - Amber Whitten; used to meet with biweekly about process, design decisions, challenge my designs. Most recently met Saturday, Oct. 27. Bio Link

Summations of research conducted thus far

Competitive Analysis - Need to make a check chart, summary, Blog Link

Needfinding Interview - Blog Link (need to make a more comprehensive summary)

Survey - Survey Link; Survey Results (when completed), summary of survey findings, questions wanting to be answered.

Summation of Research so far - Blog Link



Researched examples of potential solves of the Research Question.  These may include aspects of look, feel, intent, audience, usage, technology, etc. 

Extension of Mint - Is mint the most used tool? Should it be extended or should a new app be built? Pro: using Mint's existing branding. Con: too much for one app.

A whole new app? Pros and cons

Personal goal to make Android and iOS Platforms - showing design for both would benefit my portfolio.

Audience - People who share financial obligations, want to understand their cash flow.
