Have another person uploading stories / Other
people pop up on map to show community or multiple people engaging
I think that this will be a useful inclusion in our video as it helps reinforce the idea of community that is specified in the brief.
Montage multiple stories?
This is a feature that we plan on in including but wasn't displayed in the video, this feature will be more prominent in the web portion of the service when searching for or cities are selected for the homepage.
How can stories integrate with what's already
visible on the website?
These will be displayed on peoples profiles, on accommodation pages and through the map when searched for.
Think about how the map can handle the option to
view both stories and pictures.
This is something that will take some careful planning as the airbnb site is already designed to have a minimum of wasted space.
Some reservations about the blue in the colour
scheme, but if it's the brand colours then keep it
The blue in question is a brand colour so we will have to keep it.
Consider integrating user profiles / internal
communication via app
This option is already part of the site and is only used by airbnb to find out about specific details on actually staying in venues. From what airbnb have done so far it seems like they don't want to try and create a social network within their site but only provide direct communication when it is essential to the running of the site. I think only having the ability to comment on and like stories is the best way to go, as it mirrors not only what the airbnb experience is, but also larger platforms like Instagram.
Maybe have a like function or 'was this
helpful?'
This feature will definitely be included in the final app.
