The Interface

Because I’m relatively technologically impaired (I like to blame my “dumb” phone), the interface of my app was something I had not initially began to develop. However, when asked about what it would look like, I immediately knew I wanted a simple interface- one that even people without smart phones could easily manage.

I’ve researched a number of different types of interfaces, and I’d like to integrate a similar search bar to that of the “Buzz Player UI“. I also like the simplistic yet creative edge of “Istid.” I want my app to be both visually appealing and simple for my audience.

In its entirety, I want the app to have a home page with a “City” search bar and button underneath it. From the search page, I’d like to have the city written at the top of the page with a “Bar” search option directly underneath the city. Below this search bar, there will be an alphabetical list of the bars along with little pictures to the left of the bar (like in Buzz Player).

When the user chooses a bar, he will see the number of people in the bar, along with the maximum capacity. Below this will be a meter expressing how crowded the bar is. Finally, below this will contain a link that will lead to “User comments” about the bar and social media icons so the user can Tweet/ Facebook/ etc. the information they found.

From a very basic standpoint, this is how I plan to develop the interface of CrowdControl.
