We work in “Schedule Universities“, do mobile apps (iOS, Android, Windows Phone), which publish study schedule of students and teachers.
For the spring semester, we set ourselves the task – to understand what else we can do in our application for students to increase its use. Something we had planned from the beginning, something we asked people, well, some ideas have arisen in the process.
We proceeded as from the fact that we already have- the actual schedule, i.e., couple times, names and numbers of teachers classrooms, and of what might still need students.


Belowa list of what we already have in the plans. What else do you think would be useful?

Chats

The first is a chat group. But if you ponder on, you can fantasize integer IRC chat channels that can be created, indicating target- audience : University, faculty,course, and topics: sell-selling, parties, tuition, etc. We thought about the bulletin board, but eventually came to the conclusion that such a system is more convenient to chat.

Share Job

Now there is an opportunity to put the job to the couple there to make photo and text. But while it can be done only for himself. Many people have asked, and we were aiming at the outset, it should be possible to do these tasks common to the entire study group.

Comments to the pair

Probably, it can be combined with the tasks, and can be done instead. Essentially just a field where you can leave a comment about the last word ( or walking ) pair.

Rating Couples

Like you can put a pair. Huskies different users summarized. In the future, the rating system can be made on this basis.

Lost On Pairs

Service, which automatically recalls the beginning of the couple for 5 minutes ( time can be changed in settings). If possible add automatic transition to vibrate at the beginning of the couple.

Reference University

Phone numbers, email deans and the like. Content to fill this section for each institution, we tell the truth, we still can not, but give the opportunity to students or the university itself – it is possible.

News University and Tape Measures

Make the partition, which will automatically broadcast the news of the university in the form of titles and announcement via RSS or parsing twitter university. Activities can be done on a separate tape, and can be built into the schedule itlself ( or news).

Anonymous User or Group Of Ads

The bottom line is that you can schedule to tape group or individual user to hand an anonymous message. At the same time I would like to not only text, but also image (sticker). If you wish- not anonymously. Assume that it can be used as a minimum for holiday greetings. For example, Valentine’s day.

Discounts On The Map

There are several companies that aggregate discount for students (ISIC , ELKA). You can make a section where these are shown on the map.

Jobs and Internships

After watching a short description or job training provided by the relevant service, the student can send details to your email. This may also include proposals for study abroad.
In addition, we are currently working on the possibility of self-editing schedules students and authorization. Came to the conclusion that without authorization in further developing many did not.
