Redesign concept
Pocket AI, redesigned from what operators told us
A concept I made after the capstone. It is not the app we shipped or tested. Each change answers a finding from our usability study with five dairy farm operators.
- 3 of 5 found tapping to talk awkward with their hands full.Say “Hey Pocket”, or hold the talk button.
- 2 of 5 thought a task was lost before it synced.New tasks appear at once, marked “Waiting to sync”.
- All 5 wanted to assign tasks by name.People are named, never numbered.
- One asked for repeating tasks by voice.“Every Monday at 7 AM” sets the schedule.
Space plays the demo · H says “Hey Pocket” · R resets · V recording view. Or hold the talk button, tick tasks, open one, switch tabs.
