App Dev Worksheet: Users and Needs

App development lesson 3: Users and their needs · Set 150 · 40 questions

Developer's tip (User first): Users are the people the app is for; there are often several groups (students, teachers, parents). A need is the user’s problem; a feature is how the app solves it. Ask and watch real users before you build.
