Distancing
Project Goals
The goal of the Distancing App was to assist companies in maintaining the health of their employees during the pandemic. The app was designed to track close contacts between individuals and alert users if they had been near someone who later tested positive for the virus. Additionally, it aimed to help users maintain safe distances to prevent infection.

During the challenging times of the pandemic, the project was initiated with the objective of helping companies keep their employees healthy. The app functioned by monitoring proximity interactions among users, notifying them if they had been close to an infected individual. It also provided real-time feedback on whether users were maintaining a safe distance from others.
The development of the app posed two significant challenges. Firstly, there was an urgent need to design and launch the app swiftly as the pandemic was already impacting lives. Secondly, the design of the app needed to be as simple as possible to expedite the development process and to ensure ease of use. It was crucial that users could quickly set up and calibrate the app in just a few steps, making it accessible to a wide audience with varying levels of tech-savviness.
