Design Problem
ChipCo is looking to create a mobile application focused on leveraging employee brand knowledge and allegiance in capturing details and feedback when their brand is not being represented correctly (ie. My favorite box of cereal is dirty/damaged or missing (out of stock) at the grocery store so I take a photo and provide feedback).
ChipCo has amazing employees that have strong brand allegiance. This mobile application will allow them to quickly take a photo and share the details and comments of the brand or product not being displayed/presented correctly.
This initial interaction of this application is simple. We are also looking for your thoughts on new concepts beyond the core interaction - where can we go with this application?
- Gamification? Badges or rewards?
- Photo tagging (GEO tagging) to help capture location and store details of the issue
- Photo history or ticket process of knowing that something was resolved? (Does this matter?)
- Cognitive - does a bot make sense or other features where the application does specific things for you?
- User can submit photos, videos or voice
Challenge Goals

Design Consideration
- Think about designing a smart mobile app that is leveraging the latest modern features (for ex. cognitive experiences, etc.)
- Simple yet engaging! This app allows a user to provide quick positive and negative reactions (plus feedback) quickly.

Some example features to think about
