  • User had a different iPad with a different resolution: the "end of day" pull down was not on the screen and there was no indication of where it was supposed to be. (minor)
    • Possible Solution: set default day to be sufficiently small so that the entire (default) schedule fits on one screen with high guarantee (easy fix).  OR adjust based on dynamic iPad resolution (more difficult).
  • As described in the list of tasks, finding the specific locations on the map was difficult.  It was confusing to have to constantly zoom in and out of the map to pinpoint locations. (major)
    • Possible Solution: allow the users to input street addresses to locate places, as opposed to pinning the location down on the map itself.
  • User complained that activities disappeared all of a sudden (the user had accidentally clicked the X button for that activity).  Fortunately, there is an undo button but the user did not see it (the facilitator had to give a hint).  (major)
    • Possible solution: ask for confirmation when an activity is to be moved from the List of Activities column to the trash.
  • There was no way to specify "end of day" when setting the latest start time---one can only specify exact times. (minor)
    • Possible solution: add both "end of day" and "beginning of day" to the start time/end time pull-downs.
  • There is no way to make an activity with no location.  User wanted to have lunch anywhere around 12p-2p (minor)

Usability successes:

  • What does the drag me button do?  While this caused confusion for a few seconds, the user quickly realized that the currently selected activity corresponded to drag me.
  • The user correctly discovered how to drag and resize activities.
