This suggestion affects the generality of the app, making it more user-friendly.
Proposal Description
The idea I'm proposing is the ability to convert a birthday profile to a shareable postcard. The app lets me add a name, nickname, date of birth, a note, and lastly, a photo of the celebrant. All this information put together makes up the birthday profile. Especially the notes and the photo. The note could serve as a medium to pen down my birthday wishes to the celebrant.
When I'm done inputting all the details, there'll be a button that converts that information into a postcard that can be customized and shared.
Mockups / Examples
On BirthdayBuddy, I can add the following information;
- Firstname
- Surname
- Nickname
- Date of Birth
- Note
- Image of the celebrant.
In implementing this suggestion, only the text on the note and the celebrant's picture is important. To convert the information to a postcard, the end-user only needs to click on the postcard icon.
After clicking on the postcard icon, I'm taken to a page where I can customize the postcard;
Here's the postcard after I'm done creating it;
Benefit
I could remember when I was still little, people bought and sent birthday cards to someone who was celebrating his/her birthday. The postcard which the app would generate can be likened to such a birthday card. This feature will certainly bolster user experience.
