Here's a quick example of one of my most recent projects. If you'd like to see many more examples please visit my portfolio
Great British Bee Count - Android App
The Great British Bee Count app (GBBC) is a free app built for Friends of the Earth in collaboration with a varying collection of partners including Waitrose in 2017 and The Peoples Postcode Lottery in 2018. The GBBC app opens its doors once a year to rally the British people in the fight to save the dwindling global bee population. Users can record bee sightings with photos, get tips on making their garden a bee friendly environment and simply learn more about the many different breeds of bee out there.
Starting in 2017, working with TwoThirdsWater I was tasked with updating the existing GBBC app to provide an all new user interface as well as various bits of additional functionality. Including adding a sighting map, user registration and the ability to access the bee identification guide when the app is "closed" off-season. In 2018 I was again asked to work on the app to make further updates to the user interface, add a new on boarding flow and tailor the sighting screens to provide more data for Friends of the Earth's crack bee scientists.
