Proposta de interface baseada no Material Design para um aplicativo Android no domínio de barbearias

Abstract

In recent years, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a significant increase in the use of services on the Web and also on mobile devices. Thus, it becomes necessary to look at user experience and usability issues in order to contribute to the actual use of these services by the target audience. Thus, this work studies the use of the Material Design language to build Android applications, proposes an interface for an application in the domain of barbershops, and presents a proof of concept using current market technologies. A survey was carried out to understand the target audience and identify their needs as a way to support the construction of the proof of concept. Finally, a heuristic evaluation was conducted with three experts to evaluate the proposal. As a result, we detected business viability based on the public’s need, ease for the barber, client and importance of using design patterns.
