Background

In the recent year, Qiito has successfully launched their website and has garnered a substantial number of users in their database. As the list grows continuously, a critical issue also starts to surface. Many of their users are currently viewing their website via their mobile phone. To enable the users a better user experience while making use of their website, Qiito has created a mobile web version of their site.


It was then that Qiito realize the opportunities available in a mobile application. Thus, our group is invited to help them create a mobile application for them and to explore the possible avenues within a native application that enable the enhancement of the experience users can have.


Project Description

In order to get a better understanding of the perspective of users concerning travel applications, our group decides to conduct surveys prior to any formation of the project scope. With the results gained, we hope that we can further improve our project scope to what users really want.


Basing on the requirements provided by Qiito and the results obtained, our group has decided to split our application into 3 main sections avid travelers generally look into: Discovery, Itinerary, Memories. The goal of the application is for users to get inspirations, organize, and share possible memories within the Qiito community.

1. Discovery
Prior to any epic travels, it is necessary to search and find the amazing places in the world.


Tapping on the current mobile web available, a native container will be created within the application to hold the mobile web. Users can then explore the exotic places found within the Qiito database and be inspired by the wide range of choices available.


Additionally, for a more unique searching experience, 2 new functions will be implemented in the native application.


Firstly, tapping into the reign of augmented reality, users can view possible areas of interest within their district without even to manually search for the place. Via their phones, users can look at the real world with an additional touch of the virtual world. Recommended places will be shown in the direction where users point their phone, giving users a refreshing viewpoint of their current location.


Secondly, the application is able to generate a personalized planned itinerary catered for each of their needs and wants. This highly interactive and engaging functions prompts users to input their personal preference of a trip, their desired destination and timeframe. Using these inputs, the application will then generate an itinerary for the users, where a list of the most appropriate places are arranged for each day.


2. Itinerary
With the inspirations from a myriad of pictures, users can add these places for their perfect itinerary with the already available function in the website. The new application can let users to download and view their itinerary even in the offline mode. Users need not worry about having to carry a hard copy form of their planned itinerary when all their necessary information can be found in their phone.

3. Memories
With inspirations and planning settled, it’s time to head off to your dream destination after all that hard work! Users can take photos of their travelling experiences, and store them as a travelogue as part of their memories. Locations of where their pictures are taken can be detected through GPS functions, letting them reminisce their experience even after leaving the place.


Our Sponsor

Qiito stands for 'Q'uick 'I'nteresting 'I'nteractive 'T'ravel 'O'rganizer. A newly startup, this company aims to provide an online platform where users can share and discover interesting new places among themselves. Using the tools available, users can also plan their ideal itinerary and share their travel experience within the Qiito community. Qiito continuously strive for more innovative functions to provide a wholesome yet convenient travel planning package for all avid travelers.
