App Concept


App Idea: Urban Edibles

I want to create an app based on a website called Urban Edibles from Portland, OR where people can pin locations of where they find wild fruit in public spaces.

The app will have an interactive map that uses your location and shows you pins of fruit that others have added in your area.

In addition to this, it will have components informing you of what fruit is in season in your area, the benefits of each fruit, images of how they should look when they're ripe and when they're too green to eat.

For safety reasons, I'd like that as soon as the app loads it shows images and names of poisonous/dangerous fruit in your area to avoid.

The current website exists only for the city of Portland, so this app will open the possibility for people to start pinning in their own cities, as well as having the additional components that I used to source from other websites and books when I used their website.

Also, they don't really have a cohesive design and I'd like to introduce that as a means to make it more user-friendly and inviting.
