Crime X

This team tackled an important and very real problem with their crime app. The solution they proposed is simple and clear, helping people stay aware of safety concerns in their community. One thing that could have taken this project even further would be have been to include more information about the personas or include firsthand insights from people in the community about their perspectives. That could lead to additional features and ideas. But this is on the right track.

You have selected an important problem to tackle, and it is clear you researched the problem well and are able to demonstrate why it is important to address. Your design concept is brilliant and will require a number of technical integrations (i.e., connecting your app platform with other platforms to capture and display the information you want to bring to your users in real-time). For example, connecting your app to the government crime database. The app integration with different data sources can be done in a way that allows users in different municipalities beyond Staten Island to use the app and to connect to local data sources based on their zip codes and GPS location as they move around.

Also I love the design of your user interface. It is simple to use, and the large icons and fonts improve accessibility for people that might be visually impaired. Great job!
