To ensure EduQuit met the needs of its target audience, the project began with extensive research into children’s learning patterns and comprehension levels. Surveys with parents and guardians provided insights into preferred features, usability requirements, and potential concerns, allowing the app to address the expectations of both children and their caregivers.
A thorough competitor and market study was also conducted to identify gaps in existing educational apps. This analysis revealed a lack of interactivity and storytelling in similar tools, which became a focus for differentiation in EduQuit. Additionally, scientifically-backed content about addiction was carefully researched to ensure the app delivered accurate and reliable information. Storytelling techniques were incorporated to present the content in a simplified, engaging, and relatable way.

Development
Development
The development process began with concept design, where wireframes and prototypes were created using Adobe XD to visualize the app's flow and interactive elements. Usability testing and feedback led to iterative improvements, ensuring the design was both intuitive and visually appealing for children. The core interactive features included mini-games and quizzes designed to reinforce learning in a fun and dynamic way.
Audio integration was a standout aspect of the app’s development. Using AVFoundation, custom sound effects and voiceovers were recorded to provide rich auditory feedback. These audio elements enhanced the app's interactive nature, offering cues for correct answers, progression through the games, and user actions. The development process also emphasized rigorous testing to ensure a smooth and responsive experience, with adjustments made based on feedback from focus groups.
