Taskly

Taskly is a hybrid application that helps students manage their time and improve overall workflow. This program allows students to create custom tasks and then work against a timer that helps them decrease the amount of wasted time on small tasks. 

For this application, we had to do research in a community that I was involved in. I chose the student community due to my doing my second degree. The main problem that I found was that students tend to spend too much time on a project which causes them to rush others to get it finished before the deadlines. One thing that also came up was that students want to engage more with each other while working. 

Taskly took these pain points and created an application that allowed you to work in sessions and allow users to compete against each other. A gamified element was added that allowed users to earn as many as possible points when finishing their tasks before their timer ended. These points were then added to a weekly competition which then allowed the students to create coupons that can be won if the student wins the weekly competition. Coupons are redeemed by a QR scanner.
