Summary Research

During our first round of interviews and usability testing, we discovered that we could improve existing features and add plenty of new ones. Additionally, we will look to update and fix the broken links, calendar feature, and button placement, add customizable playlist features, and make chat more user-friendly. The second round of testing rendered great overall positive feedback. There were minor edits for us to make and ideate on and implement. We reviewed feedback and sought to compare users' wants with their needs and how their desires fit within the user stories and our app. Overall, we think our core ideas and implementations are a solid foundation, but we have plenty of work to do moving forward toward the subsequent phases of our development.
