DEMO OF UI
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Data Capture app is one of AkitaBox’s most robust tool, helping facility managers compile accurate data on the go. I worked closely with engineers on this project and created all the UI and workflows. This is the first app AkitaBox launched and was built using Flutter. I was able to design the app to integrate with the existing software so a user can easily transfer data from the app to the software (and vice versa). A important feature of this app was its ability to gather data offline and upload it once a connection is established. Offline capabilities had more design challenges than I was expecting, like what to do if there is duplicate data from multiple users or errors in the data type, so I ended up designing a UI to help with these issues when merging the data – similar to that of Git merge (but significantly easier to use). I learned a lot from this project about designing specifically for mobile apps vs. desktop software (which I have more experience in). Some of the things I had to play around with was spacing and sizing to make things easy to tap, and using intuitive gestures to navigate.
