After we created our first set of paper prototypes, we ran them by our target audience again to see their thoughts on it. It’s very important to have a continuous feedback loop. With every critique, our initial rough sketches become clearer and more specific to our users needs. Our notes from the user evaluation sessions on our paper prototypes are below.
