The Idea / What got me started?
I got the idea for this app after a party with my friends. Some bought wine and beer while others paid for food or didn’t pay for anything. After dinner I was in charge of splitting up the expenses. I realized that there where no easy way to do this..!
With that evening in mind I started developing PayMate from the following conditions:
- Must be easy and fast to use (you don’t want to spend your time doing math while with your friends)
- Make them smile (the app might make it easier to split the expenses but it still sucks to do it – so try to make it a little fun!)
The Skills / What ‘tools’ did I use?
Xcode
Objective-C
Photoshop
Wireframing
Scenarios
User testing
