Conclusion

On reflection, the final phase of user testing was a great way to conclude the project. It was great to get some final feedback on what users thought of the application and it's completed design and functionality. The feedback given were features I already were aware and wanted to feature. It has been great to get users input through the development of the app, it has helped to guide the direction and make valuable improvements for the users. I would love to revisit and add these features in the future.
