12. Very few errors, at most 1 per task 10/18 tasks had no errors Errors include: not being able to see New Meetup/ New POI buttons Mixing up New Meetup/New POI buttons Trying to create POI from map Experimental Results - Errors

13. (1-10, 10 being most usable/likeable) Task 1 Usability: 7, 7, 8, 8.5, 9, 9 Task 2 Usability: 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7 (caused by broken button) Task 3 Usability: 6, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10 Overall Usability: 7, 7, 7,7, 7, 8 Overall Likeability: 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9 Experimental Results - Ratings

14. No context to color to distinguish Meetups/POIs Data entry slow when creating items Detail screen more visually appealing Experimental Results: Comments

15. Users overall thought the idea had potential and would use especially if friends also used UI was rough in spots and more difficult to use than other applications Buttons and tabs were intuitive or quickly learned after a few clicks around the application Experimental Results - Summary

16. UI Changes

17. Place Meetup/POI icon on detail bar to associate with create buttons This will try to further distinguish difference between Meetup/POI Suggested UI Changes

18. Improve visual design of detail screens Use widgets in text entry (if time permits) Suggested UI Changes

19. POI on tab will stay due to room, Points of Interest label added to actual page Automation (future) Meetup pin will be shifted slightly when overlapping with POI pin to see both Broken New Meetup and back buttons will all be fixed Suggested UI Changes

20. Users generally completed all tasks very easy Testing on real phone exposed new issues including data entry Plan to clean up as much of ui as possible and continue to give it realistic Android feel Summary
