"Vamos de fiesta" is small app aimed to create & manage events on the go. Nowadays there are many events near us & inviting friends & family analog way is boring & time-consuming. "Vamos de fiesta" lets you discover events near you, RSVP on the event with an exact amount of people & kids attending. On the other hand, if you have an event, you can simply just create the event & invite people from your contacts within a few clicks.

Everyone needs to plan events & invite guests anytime. On the traditional way its too much time consuming to invite guests. Sharing some important info, photos, facilities for guest on the event is another hassle. I have to solve those problems in a user-friendly & convenient manner.

• Easy creation of events & inviting guests
• Events discovery with a location
• Search an event based on name or location
• User-friendly and dynamic Event Information including Schedule, Location Map, Photos, Guest count, RSVP
• Ability to chat with event host for discussion/clarification
• Ability to dynamically RSVP on the event with the number of guests including kids attending the event

1. Research
2. Synthesizing research & competitor analysis
3. Paper prototyping
4. Visual Design
5. User Testing & conclusion

By this point, I knew what the problem was, who we were designing for & what are the goals. It was now time for the cool part: coming up with ideas to solve the problem. People aged between 16 to 35 often attends a lot of events & they are the most cheerful. To go more in-depth, I tried to analyze some of the most used apps by this age ranged people. I embraced the idea that event creation & invitation in less click possible is the core concept/mission of this app.

I synthesized the data I gathered from the study about the audiences & apps usage by this age range. I found out what features will be most useful for them & how I can add extra values to this app. I get to know that, most people would be thrilled to know about these features in an app. A very easy to use features will also encourage them to use the app. They just do not want to see a cluttered list of events. A clean event with photos, with details, with total guests attending, will make it more useful. So, bothering them with lots of unnecessary features will be a mistake.

I always prefer to start with brainstorm ideas using pen and paper, as one of the easier and most effective ways. It is the cheapest method to test a digital product and it's very easy to iterate any number of times. I started by sketching as many different ideas as I can think of, some of which can be seen below. Once there are a bunch of them, I analyzed them in more detail and pull out the key idea.

By this time I know what the basic functions would be on the screens. After the paper prototype, it is time to go digital & get a more clear vision about the UI. I took the concepts I were most excited about in the paper drawing and converted them into digital to have a wider look at them.

From all the feedback & Synthesizing its time for the high fidelity design. A high fidelity prototype is basically a simulate of the final product. I created the static screens using Adobe XD and used it for a more realistic and intuitive transition and scroll too, it a great for making functional interactive prototypes which allows us to better represent the key interactions.

Testing is the part to validate whether the design concepts work or not. I was pretty short on time, but I managed to guerrilla-test the prototype on five people. I put together a test scenario, similar to the example scenario mentioned above, and observed people they are interacting with the app. I found that people liked the way to create events & inviting guests. And they are happy about, how the app enables them to rsvp on any event.
