Task Manager is an iOS application that allows for users to create categories for different tasks, such as assignments, exams, personal, work. For each category, users can create new tasks, setting due dates and reminders.
- Mobile: -- This is not uniquely a mobile experience, this is built on an existing API meaning there could be a web version of this product as well -- Benefits to using it as a mobile app include real time notifications about upcoming due dates and convience from being able to check upcoming assignments on your phone as well
- Story: -- The value includes convience, being able to check status from your phone and being notified -- Peers currently use similar versions to keep track of assignments
- Market: -- This is a growing market with potential users being students and corporate workers -- Competitors could include Notion, but with Notion you have to create a page from scratch and is not user friendly. This aims to make the process easier
- Habit: -- If people want to stay on top of their upcoming tasks, this will be an app that is used freqently
- Scope: -- The scope is well defined -- It will not be too technically challenging, slight tweaks will be made to the API, but they will not be time consuming -- This app will be able to use built in components
