"Airport Guru" is a mobile application prototype that offers travellers a faster and easier way of navigating throughout the airport when travelling, wait times and countdowns, conveniency, and important and valuable airport information.

The app features wait times in security checkpoint and a countdown to your boarding time whether the app is open or closed. This allows travellers to keep track of their boarding time and be able to navigate and enjoy the airport experience without having to continuously check their phones. The app also features a filter system that allows travellers to better control restaurant, entertainment, parking choices etc. based on their needs within the airport and offers a different personal experience for everyone that installs it. Apart from this, the app allows users to keep track of their very own location within the airport, navigating more quickly and easily throughout the airport using a way-finding system and also having the privilege of finding important necessities not usually found in airport way-finding systems.

The app is a grad project that deals with the issue of airport way-finding systems, slow wait times and a common history of travellers suffering from missed flights. It offers users the conveniency of travelling and thoroughly enjoying the airport experience like never before.

I designed this app using a more contemporary, European approach using very bright, vivid and distinctive colors like way-finding systems within the airport that travellers are already accustomed to, but also trying to keep it a bit distinctive to appeal to travellers and draw them in. I also used very common imagery and symbols for the user interface as well as legible sans-serif fonts like that of contemporary and traditional way-finding systems that travellers are already accustomed to.
