App’s Name: coupon Wallet

App’s category: shopping

App’s Purpose: The purpose of this app is to help people save money by chronicling and organizing their coupons. With this app people will now be able to scan coupons into their smart phones. The app will be designed like a book shelf and each book on the shelf is a different coupon category. When in the grocery store there will no longer be a need to pull out multiple coupon books, all you’ll need is your smartphone. It is as simple as clicking on a category in the book shelf and typing in the coupon. Say you know you had a coupon for dish detergent; just click on the cleaning supply category and type in dish detergent. Same thing goes for clothing stores, furniture stores, and other store you have a coupon for.

App’s logo: Save That Money!

App’s research source:

http://www.ilovecouponmonth.com/statistics/

http://blog.accessdevelopment.com/ultimate-collection-coupon-statistics

http://www.statista.com/topics/1156/coupon-market-trends-in-the-united-states/

APP's PURPOSE Literacy Skills: This app will not only provide users with their coupons at their fingertips, but it will also allow users to search better deals for stores that allow price match. There will be a search-it feature and all anyone has to do is type in a product or scan a barcode and the store with the best price for that product will pop up. With this app you can also click on the store and its address will appear in your GPS. And, if you are not sure about the product you are buying with this app you can research articles and pull up reviews about the product.

SPOKESPERSONS: For my spokesperson I would choose David Andrew Burd, the rapper of the song “Save That Money.” I would choose him because in his one hit wonder, the artists goal was to make a rap video and not spend any money on it. The goal my app is to help save people money and David would be a perfect endorser because he himself is a believer in saving money.

They can easily pull out their phone and act like they are taking a snapchat and then get their answer to whether they have been drugged or not. Finally, this app will include steps to follow if the app user or a friend detected drugs in his/her drink, and because the photo taking screen looks like snapchat the user can get that snap of the drink without the person who slipped the drug in your drink knowing.

6.) SPOKESPERSONS:

Emma Watson because she just graduated from Brown University in 2014 so she knows some what of how college parties can be. She would be a good spokesperson because she is a strong individual who has always been shown as a positive role model to the public.

Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) would be my second spokesperson because he is well known by not only the older generations but by the younger generations as well. The way Dwayne Johnson carries himself is in a very confident way. Johnson also had a kid so he can relate to how important it is for parents to keep their children safe and this app will help keep them safe.

5.) APP's PURPOSE Literacy Skills: This app will provide nutritional information on the fruit served in markets and grocery stores, or anywhere fruit is served as a whole. Some people end up picking up and purchasing rotten fruit because you can't really look at a fruit and tell if its rotten or not. This app will consume money because people won't waste their money on rotten fruit. The app will also tell you if the fruit has any hidden bruise, as well as when the sticker was placed on the fruit.

6.) SPOKESPERSONS: Prince fielder would be my spokesperson because he is a vegetarian that eats a lot of fruit. He is a MLB player that is very well known. Fruits are a big part of fielders meal plan because they provide him with all the vitamins and minerals that he needs in his diet

1.) APP'S NAME:                "My Time"

2.) APP'S CATEGORY:       Health and Fitness
3.) APP'S PURPOSE:     “My Time” will provide any college student to be able to log onto the app and see how crowded the gym is and what machines are being used.  This app will alert users when gym is less-crowded by tapping into the gym’s network that tracks machines in use.  The app will also buzz when friends are at the gym.  This is done by syncing their phones contacts to the app.   Since many gyms use FOB’s for 24/7 access, the system can alert the app user that his/her friends are at the gym.  Many people go to the gym without knowing how to properly use the equipment.  The My Time app will provide the user [via a short video clip] with a different exercises that can be completed without the use of a trainer.  Here is how the app will work; upon arriving at the gym, the app user can snap an image of the machine that they are interesting in using.  My Time will provide suggested exercises based on the users current strengths, weaknesses and goals.   Additionally, My Time records their reps and tracks their progress while pushing the user to exceed their previous performance.   Ultimately, the My Time app will learn the user’s patterns and not only make the proper suggestions for exercise, but urge the user return to the gym in order to create healthy habits.

5.) APP's PURPOSE Literacy Skills:

In life, few people want to be alone, especially when we walk into a gym for the first time and don’t recognize anyone familiar.  We as a society need to work on our personal health, but it’s no fun to do it alone.  Having one or two companions helps to motivates us, keep us on track, and help us to fulfill our goals.  On the other side of the equation, there are times when members hit the gym and it is over-crowded resulting in wasted time while waiting for a favorite machine.

This app will help users become more motivated and have less anxiety about joining a gym and visiting on a regular basis.  Many people are self-conscious about their appearance and this can lead to depression, isolation, and further weight gain.  Additionally, by taking a picture of the machine and learning the proper way to use it  makes users feel like they are achieving something and getting more out of their work out.
Receiving a reminder to the user that the gym is less crowded will increase their ability to perform their best work out and will encourage them to go when the alert is sent to them.  Not only will users feel better that it’s less crowded but knowing a friend is there will also increase the user to go.

6.) SPOKESPERSONS: Either the US Gymnastics team members, Shawn Johnson & Jake Dalton. These two individuals would be perfect to represent this app because they are influential Olympians who are physically fit and go to the gym daily.  These Olympians just like everyone else started from the bottom and worked their way to the top with hard work and dedication.

The app will also have a notification feature to notify you when activity is happening on the app. This app will make studying and interacting with peers easier for students. It will help them learn from each other and not just from lectures in class.

Spokesperson: Study Buddys spokesperson would be Lebron James. Lebron James would be a great spokesperson for my app because he is a huge supporter of college education. His Family foundation has been giving a helping hand to student from the 3rd to 7th grade. Just recently in august of 2015 he paid for more than a 1,000 students tuition so they could attend college.

1.) APP'S NAME:              "Gym Hero"
2.) APP'S CATEGORY:       Health and Wellness

3.) APP'S PURPOSE:       This app would connect to your gym of choice, as long as they are a participating location, and show you what machines are in use at any given time.  A lot of people’s excuses for not going to the gym is because it is too busy when they go, or they go and all the machines they want to use are taken. This would take away that problem because they could check before they went to see how crowded it was.  This app would also help inform people about the machines and how they work and even give them workouts based on their skill level, and provide tips of what to do while waiting on a machine if they have to go when it’s busy.  This app would also give other alternatives to going to a gym.  Not everyone is comfortable going to a gym, or maybe you do not have the money to pay for a gym membership.  This app would give you workouts of all different levels to do at home, using common household items.  Another feature of this app would be healthy recipes.  This section would advise you on what to eat before and after workouts, and the best ways to change your diet in order to either lose weight or gain muscle, whatever your goal is.  This app would also have a find your motivation feature.  It could connect you with friends or family who you can go on this workout journey with.  They can be there to motivate you or suggest good recipes that they have tried.

5.) APP's PURPOSE Literacy Skills: This app will provide information on different gyms busy hours, and give people suggestions of what to do in their spare time if they have to go doing a busy time.  For beginners, going to the gym can be scary if they do not know what exactly to do, and asking one of the trainers could be intimidating.  This app would help inform people about the machines and how they work and even give them workouts based on their skill level.  Exercise is not only important for those who want to lose weight or gain muscle.  Exercise is important for everyone, just because you are small, does not mean you are healthy.  Exercising regularly and eating a healthier diet can benefit everyone.

6.) SPOKESPERSONS:  Jillian Michaels or Jenny Craig might endorse this app.  Jillian Michaels is a well known personal trainer.  She used to be a trainer for the TV show Biggest Loser.  Jenny Craig is also well known, but for diets and losing weight.  That might be why she would endorse this app, the app could go along with her diets to be more successful in people losing weight.

AUSTIN: Not Approved yet this app exists

http://www.pettracker.com/tagg-go  - it already exists  check out this website, interesting idea - You need to rework this looking at the "need with what the  research says...

(There are not that many pets lost in and your app above now says TRAINING TIPS so the dog won't get lost, I'm confused...is it an dog tracker or training app)?

Use our dog tracker app on your Apple or Android mobile phone to see where your pet is on a map, even when you’re on the go. The Tagg app alerts you if your pet gets out, and even gives you driving directions from your current location to their location. Track and find them quickly to bring them home safe!
