PHONEKEEPER

By Charlie Hardy, Douglas Murray and Joe Gocher

Who, what, when, where and why? Who? Smartphone users in general

What? Alert them when they drop their phone

When? Whenever you might happen to drop your phone

Where? Wherever you might happen to drop your phone

Why? So that people don’t lose their phones

The ProblemThe problem that this app will solve is people

losing their phones without realising such that they realise later and are then unable to find it.

The Question?

How can you keep yourself from losing your

phone?

Key Insight(s)

Losing your phone is terrible, and once you’ve lost it, there is no compensation. Having phone keeper on your phone will solve this problem by alerting you if your phone. The alarm may go when it is not needed.

Our team, Arion, is developing a smartphone app that helps anyone that uses their phone regularly on the go, that could potentially lose it. The app will alert them as soon as they drop it or help them find it in retrospect.

Wireframe pg 1When phone is dropped, your phone will sense this, and after 3 seconds, your phone will vibrate and the alarm will go. This will notice you to the phone, and you’ll pick it up and press ok to switch the alarm off

Once you’ve pressed Ok, you’ll be taken to this page, where you can set your settings, from a multitude of alarms, and setting the time, you can also press the 3 buttons below the setting.

Wireframe pg 2 This page just gives you a short description of the app, and what it can do.

FeasibilityThe feasibility of the app is not incredibly high.

However it is perfectly possible especially if you consider the advances companies have made on the sensitivity of the accelerometer. GPS tracking has also been done before and the alarms from different systems will work by finding devices on the same internet network.

Marketing strategy

We intend to sell our app to insurance companies. They would likely buy into it as it would result in less lost phones, ergo less money they have to pay out. We would also sell it on Google Play for a small price, probably about $2, whereas it would come free with insurance.

Wild Card This app is the first of it’s kind, the

accelerometer has never been used this way before. What’s more the app has many different functions… maps and setting an alarm from different systems.
