MY WORK
PROTOTYPES
"OPT"
The App to OPT out of unwanted items or OPT in to someone else's unwanted items
What is OPT?
I designed this app based on an idea to assist those who are cluttered with things of use that they no longer need.
Why OPT?
I found that many items, such as device chargers, adapters, tools, kitchen supplies, and over-abundance from gardens create a clutter that have people feeling guilt for either not utilizing or trashing the item.
My solution...
I wanted to find a solution to end the guilt and clutter with OPT. With this app, you are allowed a few locations of your own to set up items you may no longer want or need for pickup. Those around you can find your items listed and may request some or all of your items available.
You may search for items of your own with a suggested list of items that might interest you based on your searches.
