eDog: An Interactive Dog Care Application Using An UI/UX Approach

Abstract

This project is a mobile application designed to assist dog owners in efficiently managing their pets' care routines. It addresses the challenges faced by busy dog owners who often struggle to keep track of essential tasks such as feeding schedules, veterinary appointments, grooming, and other dog care activities. Furthermore, while mobile applications can be an ideal solution for quick services, the poor UI/UX design and features of some existing apps often leads to user dissatisfaction. By leveraging a user-centered design methodology and adopting Agile development practices, this project ensures iterative improvements to user needs throughout the development process. The application features reminders, notifications for upcoming tasks, and a pet log to monitor vital details. The use of Agile methodology facilitates the incremental delivery of these features, enabling continuous feedback and refinement to align with user expectations. This project aims to enhance the quality of life for both dog owners and their pets through an accessible, user-friendly, and engaging digital platform. By integrating UI/UX principles and iterative Agile practices, the project simplifies pet care management, addresses usability challenges, and fosters stronger bonds between owners and their dogs while maintaining a flexible and innovative approach to development.
