Sketches & wire frames:

As I started thinking about the app I want to design, a lot of ideas came to my mind. Therefore I started doing some sketches. The sketches on this page were my final idea. However, when I looked at them again to make the wire-frame, I made some new changes

sign up: For the person who would change his/her mind about making a new account, I put cancel button.Then I realized that it doesn't look good, and it makes the top part so busy, so I put back button on top. I also put "Go" button instead of "Done" because it is more exciting, and its easier to see. Another change I made after doing researches on other applications was putting the terms of service and privacy policies buttons at the bottom of the page.

Profile: First I wanted to make a drop-down menu, but I realized that its hard to use, and It is much better if a user can see the options all the time, so I  put the navigation bar at the bottom instead. I also changed the way that the buttons on the page look, so now they look more like buttons on the page that the way they were before. In addition, ​on the wire-frame, I put the setting button which I totally forgot to put it on my sketch.

My Journey: This page is for saving the memory of the places that the user experience, so for the next trip she/he can decide if they want to go to that place again or not and why.on the sketch I put the note part plus pictures. on the wire-frame, I put just one picture because it is on the iPhone and it won't be big enough to have slides of photos. I also decided to put emojis on it as the overall impression, so they I can understand if it was good or bad without reading the text.

Details: this page has the general information of the place plus it shows the rate of it with stars and reviews.The only thing that I added to the wire-frame was the two buttons for "inviting friends" and "add to the calendar." However, on the final version, I also added a "go" button to directly go to the map and starting the trip.
