"Give me a task", so what

In this post you will discover what our App try to solve, and why one would use it, and a short scope of our plan 

the app idea summary

the app main idea is to suggest a task for the user to do , let me give you a clear example, 

you are sitting on your couch, the atomesphere is boring and you want to do something other than just watching TV,  here you open "give me a task" app and tap on a button to get something useful to engage you.

why this idea, what does it try to solve.

human tend to procrastinate tasks because they can be overwhelmed by tasks choices.the app will try to learn more about the user through the ongoing interactions.

then give him the proper task for the current time, his mood, task difficulty and other factors. 

so more uses yield better results

how does this app differ from to-do and time trace apps, what is the challenge behind

although the idea seem to be pretty simple, the nature of the problem is hard to solve in programming context, and indirectly related to artificial intelligent systems.

the app is not used as an organizer (like To to and Time tracer apps). its like intelligent agent who try to learn and provide useful tips or tasks for the user.

app main features

the main goal of the App is handling tasks for the user,and beside that it will include some useful features that ease the process of self-management.

what are the other features and how they fit nicely with the "task handling" feature; this is directly linked to the Lateral thinking sessions we talked about in previous posts

in the coming two days, i will start lateral thinking session, with the following Focus Hit List 

• concept : App that handle tasks to the user
• objectives : set of features that ease the process of self-management
• technique: honestly i did not define it yet, but i will mention the techniques i have used, when sharing the session results in the coming post

how i will build upon these features, or can we change the app path

 so far we have the App "problem definition", in Conell's book "code complete 2", he said "the problem definition" of a software will be our compass during the development phases.

of course during the coming phases of App construction  (requirements or features analysis,system architecture, class diagram, algorithms and code documentation), any ideas and suggestions from you are welcome.
