6. Suggested UI Changes

Suggested UI Changes

• The buttons on the home screen aren’t clear enough. Make the buttons and find friends text bigger

• Replace menu with navigation buttons

• Better gamification : either make clearer by using pop ups or shift it into a stats page. Eliminate friend points from the home page

• Integrate Facebook onto the application and visible on the home page

• Add Emojis and badges as additional motivational methods
