The Sweets
Our app targets graduating students in college that need help spending their money wisely. With this app we hope that when college students are faced with paying their college debt they can use our app. When they use this app we hope that it can help to pay off their debt in the amount of time they want, so when it comes to paying their debt they can pay it off more quickly. When a customer signs in, it will give them a quiz and then there is a results page and it tells you what to pay in the time you wanted.
QutieQuartet
Our app is called TechPaws because the function is to help animals find their forever homes. The app does this by putting the information, such as adoption events, pet profiles,etc, in an easier to use format. Our current target market is people in the Bay Area who are looking to foster or adopt. In the future, we would like to expand the app throughout America, moving by proximity to us. Before we began coding we researched apps similar to ours so we could assess them. We realized that the other apps were not very functional nor did they have the best layouts.

BubbakateersOur environment is very important. Our school is not the best at putting waste in the right bin. San Francisco wants to achieve “Zero Waste” by 2020. This is why we have “WhichBin”.
|
Our App, “WhichBin” pulls information from Recology (Bay-Area Garbage Collection Agency) to let the user know which bin to throw waste into; compost, recycling or the landfill. We ask every last detail in a series of questions, to make sure that the results are 100% correct. It’s also mobile. Once you download to your phone, you don’t need wifi, and can be anywhere.

List & Found sends push notifications to your team groups so users can see what was recently found at a glance, and found items are viewed with a push of a button. It is simple, easy, and time efficient.
