Design Decisions

• To prevent user overload, we stilced to having three tabs; user profile (statistics), history, map. These view are pretty self-explanatory as in the history you can view all placed pins as well as add old pins. In the Map display you can add pins from travels prior to the app, and in the stastics page we have a gamification idea to see how you rank among other users as well as your own personal stats such as most recent travelling timeslot

Technical Decisions

• To allow for mulit-user use, we made the choice to use Google Firebase to handle logging in to an account, logging out, signing in/out
• We've also integrated Apple MapKit to allow users to view pins they have placed on a map view as well as easily add pins through a simple tap or so
