Inspiration

With some of the team members having to self isolate several times due to travel restrictions, we acknowledged how difficult it must be to undergo self-isolation without having anyone help you with day-to-day tasks.

What it does

The app lets users register as either a volunteer or as an isolating user. Users can submit tasks that they need help with. Volunteers pick tasks to complete and fulfill them.

How we built it

We built it using android studio and collaborated using git.

Challenges we ran into

Authentication, storing data in the database, implementing google APIs. The app doesn't fully work yet but it gives the general impression of how it should operate.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The design of the app, the general user experience.

What we learned

We didn't have much android development experience, for several of us, this is actually our first android app. Because of that, we have learned a lot about android development from scratch.

What's next for IsoHelp

Connecting users to volunteers, storing tasks properly, using maps to display locations, generally adding more functionalities.
