Overview
Let’s Play is an app that allows you to make new friends and find people who are interested in the same hobbies as you. It is primarily focused on sporting activities such as pickup basketball, soccer, tennis, etc. The user can create or join pickup games in their area and invite others to join in on the fun.
Why
There aren't many applications that support sporting events and the need to engage communities in physical activity; of those that do, some don't offer a charming user experience or aren't well-known enough.
User Survey
I did an online survey with people from all age groups who are interested in playing pickup sports in order to examine the issues users are experiencing and potential areas for improvement. My next goal was to try to identify the difficulties and pain areas that individuals encounter.

Information Architecture
Wireflow
In order to have a better idea of how I want the social component of the app to look, I started looking at various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. To further grasp how I wanted other layout elements to look, I researched current trends.
