Get Lost - Discover is an app I helped design and develop during my time at the Apple Developer Academy. The app is available for download on the App Store and encourages adventure and discovery by giving the user random directions to use while exploring.
The animations for the door and the compass needle were both created using frame by frame animation, designed in Sketch. The opening scene places the user inside their front door where they can click the mail slot to see the locations that they have saved or the door knob to start their adventure. In the main scene the pin icon on the left is used to save the location, the arrows can be used to spin the compass and refresh the direction, and the X is used to exit the direction scene and start the navigation. A long press on the wrist opens the skin color selector.
Get Lost - Discover allows users to save locations in order to pin the exciting most interesting spots that they find on their adventure. Once the user feels they are lost enough and their taste for exploration is quenched, users can exit out of the direction scene and enter an in-app navigation to return back home.
One truly unique feature about Get Lost - Discover is the ability to customize the skin color of the hand in the main scene, promoting accessibility to all users.
The final designs above are a redesign from the original project. The first project below was originally designed around the concept of a pirate map and incorporating the opportunity to take pictures of the landmarks and exciting discoveries during the user's adventure.
