#appmap

My group is making great progress on our current project, and as a part of my share of the work I volunteered to build our appmap. Since I geek out when it comes to organizing, I am having a lot of fun learning about the differences between appmaps and sitemaps and making sure I get every one of our app’s functionalities in it. 

It seems that while a sitemap is focused on categories of information, an appmap is focused on categories of functionality. 

After a number of iterations, here is where our appmap is at the moment:

Wireframes according to App Map v3a

Tweaked the App Map. This is the latest.

Changes:

Login – moved to when the user choose to share what he recorded. 

Discover – more details. More functions such as map & list view, music player, refresh.

Side Nav – Search function.

Social media aspect within the app – user can follow other users

Recordings – length limited to 60s 

Tutorial – in between default.png & Home.

Questions:

Tags. Is it a need?

Make the TA DA screen much more of a big deal? So that user will feel more satisfied/accomplished and happier.

Should Activity screen be accessible from any stage of the app?

Should user be able to search in all of discover screens? or should it only be accessible in side nav (which means that side nav should be accessible from any screen in the app)
