Week 5 | Establishing Core Values to Guide Our App Development



During our discussions with our instructors, we focused on refining our mission statement and core values to provide a structured outline for our app development.
Refining Our Mission
During our discussions with our instructors, we focused on refining our mission statement and core values to provide a structured outline for our app development. To enhance our ideation process, we collected screenshots of apps that embodied trustworthiness, guidance, and support, ensuring our design aligns with the needs of our audience. This effort was directly linked to our mission and core values, helping us create a clear vision for our app that resonates with users seeking legal assistance.
Building Trust and Support
Our mission became more focused on providing accessible legal help to those in vulnerable situations, particularly women, by offering step-by-step guides, resources, and support through a user-friendly app. Our core values now emphasize support, guidance, and trustworthiness, all of which are integral to how we want to position our app within the legal tech space. With a solid foundation, we’re now able to move forward confidently, knowing that our app’s structure aligns with both our values and the needs of our target audience.
Development Progress
In terms of development, we spent time sandboxing both React Native Paper and UI Kitten to find the best fit for our design needs. After testing, we decided to move forward with React Native Paper due to its versatility and seamless integration with our project.
