[App UI Mockup] Announcements

Emails, Facebook, SMS inefficient in spreading announcements? Capitalise on your smart phone by utilising a dedicated application to send announcements whether for your work or social purposes!

*Important Notice* This is a draft.

This user interface was specifically designed for Raffles Institution's Infocomm Club (more information can be found at riicc.sg). For an unconventional, yet clean feel, the headers have been moved to the sides. Browsing through announcements under different headers can be done by swiping up or down to move to the next or previous categories. The unread count is clearly displayed on the top of the page, where options to sort by date or importance. Directly below that, we get a display picture of the announcer, removing the wordy feel of the application. The name as well as the date and time sent are also also clearly stated. Below that we have the actual announcement. Instead of having a scroll bar, an up and down arrow sit at the top and bottom right hand corner of the message. This is so as the swiping gesture is already used for switching between the categories. Below the message, we have 2 actions to allow the user to set reminders for the announcement displayed, namely a pin to notification and a set reminder option. the set reminder option will utilise the built in alarm clock, automatically inputting data into known fields while allowing the user to change fields should he feel that the information extracted is not accurate. Below the actions bar, we have page skipping options if the user does not feel like using the left and right swipes for switching posts. However, should the user prefer a cleaner interface, this can be removed. 

Watch out for my upcoming posts as I improve on the UI for this app!

Mobile Social Networking User Interface



Hey guys, I am back again with a mobile social networking User Interface (UI) integrated within your contacts! Unfortunately, I am not a coder so I will not be able to turn this into an application. However, If you are interested to help me out, please contact me on this blog or by other means. I hope that I will be able to create an Android, iPad, iPod, Windows and Macintosh application just to enhance your social network. After all, wouldn't it be awesome if you could view all your social networks by clicking on one of your contacts? The UI just adds to the fun and increases usability. So please help fulfill my dreams by contacting me to code this. Thank You and be sure to watch out for more of my future creations.

Wow. On viewing it again, it actually looks like it was done by someone with no Photoshop experience at all. Will improve so comments please. If you are keen on acquiring the PSD file, I could email it to you if you leave a comment. Also, the jpeg file is available at full resolution from me.

On another note, if you were wondering how the 'i' in iKen96 came about, it was to fuel my ego (since this site is about me). The 'Ken' is my Facebook name and 96 is my birth year. Yeah, I am 14 this year so i'm still young talent I guess. *ego*
