The workflow to identify your features
It is not easy to identify what your app needs to shine. I earlier stated that you have to ensure that your app is goal-driven, but how do you achieve that? To help you do this, I have created the following workflow that you might want to follow when thinking about your next project:
- Write down your mission statement.
- Brainstorm all ideas.
- Remove ideas that don't support the mission statement.
- Separate must-haves from nice-to-haves.
- Prioritize must-haves.
- Implement.
Writing down your mission statement
Think about your idea. Can you describe it in one line? To help you do that, I have created a template to fill in:
"My app [app name] is the best app to help [audience] [task it is achieving] in order to [reason to achieve this task]"
Fill in the app name, the audience, the task it is achieving, and the reason to achieve it, and you have a mission statement. I will give you some examples:
- My app PlaneSpotter is the best app to help plane spotters track planes in...
