Expecting 101 Review

The expecting 101 app is an app that needs to go into development. The app has a lot of potential and I believe the app would benefit many underage pregnancies. I believe the app would be extremely useful for many young girls who become pregnant and sometimes do not know exactly what to expect.  I think this app would be beneficial to those mothers who are uninsured and are unable to visit a primary doctor regularly. This app will ease some confusion and help them throughout their pregnancy.

The “Doctors Near Me” option can be incredibly helpful. I believe with the addition of a section for “signs of delivery” or something between those lines, could impact the delivery greatly. One example where these two sections could be useful if a mother is experiencing some kind of discomfort or what appears to be signs of delivery before the expected due date, I think that particular section could help inform the mother if it is recommended to go to the hospital or recommended to visit a physician.  I think adding a section on “signs of delivery” is extremely important because many first time mothers would not know what to expect and this app would definitely be of great use.

One modification I would add to the video section of the app would be adding videos based on the pregnancy week. I believe the videos would help visualize how the fetus is developing and it would help the mother understand changes happening to her body.

The idea behind the app has immense potential to expand their target audience. I believe the app creators could develop a follow-up app to help first time mothers post-delivery.  The app could inform the first time mothers of some of the responsibilities that come with motherhood.

The idea of being able to conduct your own ultrasound seems an unrealistic with the current technology available to the public but I do not think it is impossible. As our technology continues to advance, the idea of being able to conduct your own ultrasounds sounds promising. However, I do not think this app can replace the periodic ultrasounds performed by medical professionals but the ability to conduct your own ultrasound makes the app more appealing.

Overall, this app would inform first time mothers what to expect when expecting. The app would defiantly be helpful to thousands of mothers who do know much about pregnancies. After a couple of tweaks, this app has the ability to become a high-downloaded app and will diffidently appeal to the app’s target audience.
