Money saving assistant- Graduation project
The challenge was to explore how to assist students in saving money for vacations. I developed an application for students, serving as a personalized money-saving assistant that operates through tailored reminders based on vacation preferences. I conducted user research, iterated through three rounds of functional and visual prototypes, and performed prototype testing sessions. A data-driven loop with a recommendation system was implemented, allowing users to rate reminders for continuous improvement.
