RESEARCH ABSTRACT: we have always had a challenge with managing and security and privacy the first step was to analyse best practices find security bugs and also thinking about what will improve user experience. we were searching for a meaningful relationship between aesthetic and function. actually we use design thinking methodology and used some tools like market research user analysis brain storming and also a deep dive in problem have been our main tools in our design process.
CHALLENGE: Using the right material based on the design and the market
Bringing the technology to the real world
programming the app
