Problems & goals
Reducing parent enquiries with an app to stay connected on student exchange
Nacel Australasia, a provider of student exchange programs, needed a solution to reduce the volume of parent enquiries about their children's trip details and wellbeing. I was brought in to design the app interface and provide UX improvements, building on an initial concept of a basic check-in and location tracking app. To enhance the app’s value for both parents and students, I proposed adding a feed where students could share updates in more personal ways—like uploading photos or posting notes about their day. This approach not only addressed the practical need for location tracking but also encouraged richer communication, making the app more engaging and meaningful for its users.

Daily check-in
A location tracking app for peace of mind
The primary function of the app was to log the students location at regular intervals and ask the students to tap check-in once a day. Parents could see this information using a different view of the app for peace of mind.

Student check-in
Sharing your location and trip highlights
Students would be prompted to check-in daily. They could add a simple tap to check-in or add messages and photos for more meaningful content. Parents and hosts would be notified if check-ins were missed.

Parent's view
Keeping connected with your kids across the globe
The parent's view of the app would show a feed of check-ins, messages and photos from one or more of their kids who were away on exchange. Clicking a post would allow them to see the location details.

Trip details
Trip details and contacts all in one spot
To reduce ongoing enquiries to customer service we included an information area that would be populated by Nacel with all the details and information parents, students and hosts would need for the trip. The information shown would be specific to the users needs, for example parents would see their child's itinerary and hosts contact details.
