MemoMan-Students who lose or forget essential pieces of equipment in everyday life like school books for example. Also for those who want to organise and prepare for events to remind themselves.- A planner that can find items for the school day late at night.-Late at night, when students are packing their school bags for the next day and have lost their pieces of equipment. Also, if they want to set reminders, allowing them to be organised for tomorrow.-In their bedroom or study, at home.-Students likely to forget the little things they need, early in the morning and most students pack their bags late at night, and need to find their books as soon as possible.
You misplace necessary items for the next
day and need to find them as soon as possible. You may also need reminding in
order to remember specific objects.
How can you prevent loosing certain objects that
you need to find quickly?
A lot of school children are loosing books and important school equipment and are therefore getting detentions. MemoMan can therefore help by
finding their school equipment and organising school children.
Our team, MemoMan, is developing a mobile app
to help school children from age 11-18 to get organised and find
School books and help them get organised with their school
Life to prevent getting detentions for missing books and late homework.
Our team sent out a questionnaire to ask the
studentsIn our school if our app will benefit them and the Results came back positive. So from this we have Learnt that many pupils are getting detentions forLoosing books and late homework so this app will
help Preventing this happening.
We looked at an app called the tile app. This app
provides Tiles (which cost money) to easily find commonly
lost objects.Our app is being further adapted to make it suitable
for school children and to pinpoint the exact location of the lost object. As the tile app tiles are
fairly big we want to reduce This size and maybe convert it into a sticker in
which you Can easily stick onto schoolbooks. The price of this
will not be As expensive and therefore could stand out to
school children.
Our app’s core feature is to find commonly lost
objects whichAre valuable for school children in the age of
11-18.We handed out a questionnaire to have a look
at the studentsOur age and to see if our app will benefit them.
The resultsWere positive and therefore we think this app
will helpGreatly with school children who sometimes
loose their Books and homework.
Our core features will include -an easy login page
-an easy way to help school children's organisation -an easy way and cheap way to get hold of tags for
essential school items such as school books-a simple way to create an account
We know that there are The Tiles App which uses the
Similar technology and pet chips which is quite alike asWell. To connect the chip to the phone we will be using GPS to simply find the phone via the app – Memo Man
We have started off with a simple idea of
MemoMan which We are planning to develop and expand the idea to encourage Pupils and even teachers to use this app and tell other students about it. We created a questionnaire and asked 10 People and they all pledged that they would benefit from our app and get it. We were going
to make it a priced app but now we have changed it to be a free app to encourage more people to buy it but we will make money by
making the tags on our app priced.
1. A YouTube advert to advertise our app e.g. Pow Toon
2. Social media channels e.g. Instagram by advertising our app by creating an account.
3. TV advertisement campaigns to attract customers to Buy the app.
