Challenge Details
Mobile, Mobile, Mobile - definitely a theme throughout this tournament. The goal of this challenge is to design the look and feel of a native iPhone experience.
Problem: Don’t Peek!
Everywhere you look there is an application, website, or device looking for you to create or use a password for access. This challenge is focused on creating a simple application that will help users generate a strong password on the go! Assuming the technology is possible… in this design challenge, we are looking for a fun, engaging mobile password generator that will let you create secure passwords and quickly sign-up/register/login to new or existing applications. This application can use the existing Apple Face ID for the application owner access and then generate or find passwords the user will need.
Thoughts on Features:
1. An area to have an auto-generated or user typed in password
2. Different ways to create and auto-create passwords (emojis, images, and the normal letters/symbols/numbers, etc.)
4. Indication of the password being weak/strong
5. A section that explains best practices and how to create memorable and safe passwords.
6. Ability to push/copy the password to the app/site that is requesting it.
7. Futuristic concepts are encouraged!
There are existing applications out there that generate and store passwords etc. We are looking for a fun, engaging mobile concept that should be quick/easy to use.
Hack this!
In this challenge, we are looking to capture the immediate dashboard of the iPhone application and any features you think would be presented/used by someone who needs to create or login into an application.
You have 30 minutes, so make the most of it.
