Step 5 - Reflection

Hello everyone

We tend to consider it a given that sharing is a good thing. As children, we're taught (and made) to share our toys, our crayons, and our rooms. As we age, our toys and our personal space become larger and more expensive, and we share them less and less, but we still value the idea of sharing. There are lots of ways to share resources as adults, including shared gardens, food, meals, jobs and many more. More...

Step 3 - Experience

Hello everyone

We would like to share with you our experience that we had during working on this project. First of all, we really enjoyed working on this project because it was a new challenge for us to create an app. We struggled a bit to find the right tool to create an app. The main problem was that most tools were not free. So that's why we decided to create the app SHARE-it on Powerpoint. We spent a lot of time on this because we wanted to finish this project so quick as possible.

Concept - app SHARE-it

Source of income: - with commercials
                           - with sponsors
                           - Freemium

Output source:     - supply control
                           - app developer

Here an example:

step 1: You are in a language exchange in London and you have to print something for your school project
step 2: You open the app SHARE-it on your mobile phone
step 3: You are searching for a printer close to you
step 4: You select the printer you want to use
step 5: You go to the lender's house with your stick and print there your stuff for free
step 6: After you have done this you give the lender feedback about your experience on this app

In addition: If you lend for example a broom (Besen) you have to give the lender a deposit. When you bring the item back after you used it then you will get your deposit back.

Sharing - rent something for free via app

Hello everyone

We have thought about a potential idea regarding the topic "sharing". We would like to develop an app on which you can upload any item you want to share. Everyone has the opportunity to upload their things on the app SHARE-it. To have unlimited use of the app, you must first create an account. On SHARE-it you can not only offer things you also have the possibility to borrow things if needed. For example, if you are on vacation, you can download the app on your mobile phone and search for the item you need. The app automatically detects your location and finds the item you need. When you create an account you can pick up the item for free. As soon as you no longer need the item, you return it. This app is free and available for everyone.
 
 
 
If you would like to share also your items with this app let us know.
 
With kind regards
