Product: Smart Home Control App

Device Type: Mobile app (iOS/Android), Integration with voice assistants (e.g., Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri) and Compatibility with smart home devices (e.g., lights, thermostats, security cameras).

Context: With all the home's new devices that be part of our daily lives, an Smart Home Control app looks like always a must to have even smarter home system.

Workshop plan 1

  1. Brainstorm and prioritize features for the smart home app.
  2. Define user personas and key use cases.
  3. Develop wireframes and prototypes for the most promising features.
  4. Create a strategic implementation plan for the selected features.

Workshop plan 2

After define the goals the Workshop was splitted in 2.5 days sessions. Now the plan for each day.

Hey Victor! This is a very well-organized and comprehensive workshop plan that covers the entire product development lifecycle, from research to implementation. Amazing Work!

Below are some key strengths and areas for improvement:

Strengths:

  1. Clear Structure: The three-day format flows well from research to prototyping, ensuring focus and engagement.
  2. Balanced Activities: Good mix of brainstorming, group work, and prototyping, with a focus on user personas and prioritization.
  3. Practical Deliverables: Wireframes, prototypes, and a product roadmap are well-defined and actionable.
  4. Technical Feasibility: Including developers in the feasibility review ensures the designs are realistic.

Areas for Improvement:

  1. Breaks & Pacing: Consider adding short breaks between sessions, especially on Day 1 and Day 2, to avoid burnout.
  2. User Testing: More time for actual user testing could be beneficial, rather than just preparation. Remote testing could be an option.
  3. Post-Workshop Timeline: Specify when post-workshop activities like follow-up meetings will occur to manage expectations.
  4. Persona & Feature Clarity: Refining personas and features with group feedback will ensure alignment with app goals.

Suggestions:

  • Stakeholder Feedback: Incorporating a feedback session from stakeholders on Day 1 or 2 could align the design with business and technical needs.
  • High-Fidelity Prototypes: Consider adding time for high-fidelity mockups for better team alignment and clearer design direction.

This workshop plan is solid, with a good balance of activities and practical deliverables. Adjusting the pace and giving more time for user testing could further enhance the outcomes.

AWESOME JOB! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
