The Goal
Design an app to help manage time.
It needs to provide both tools and a
system in order to teach good
organizational habits, and time
management skills to the community.
The app must also work as a tool people
can use to organize their schedules.

Last Takeaways
Impact: Now Is the Time provides a user-friendly experience focused on promoting self-care through simple actions. “The app has an easy way to plan activities, it inspires me to have things in order.” Those are words from a participant in the usability study.
I learned that there are many things connected to a person's daily plans.
When I wanted to create a to-do list app, I thought having a tool is the only thing some people needed in order to organize their plans better, but I realized that in addition to having an efficient tool, they also need a trustworthy way to develop a system that works for them an that helps them to form healthy time-management habits.
Next Steps
Keep thinking about the way the app's accessibility can be improved.
Add more features and upgrade the ones that are already working.
Start a usability study in order to improve usability, enjoyability, accessibility, and usefulness, and keep iterating on the app.
