Welcome To Cheney Mobile App

Abstract

Welcome to Cheney is a non-profit organization committed to fostering communication, connection, and action within the city of Cheney. Their primary purpose is to provide timely and accurate information to the residents of Cheney. Welcome to Cheney has tried utilizing other forms of social media such as Facebook and Instagram to share information, but their presence is being overshadowed amidst the noise on those platforms. Therefore, the intention of this project is to develop a mobile app with the sole purpose of being a reliable means of sharing important information with the residents of Cheney.

The information being shared on this mobile app will include but is not limited to: road closures, weather alerts, public events, school activities, jobs and volunteer opportunities. To prioritize accuracy of information, the app will feature tiered account levels, allowing reliable information directly from a verified source. Since only certain accounts can make posts, accounts without the ability to post will still be able to directly share information with admins. Using this strategy, admins will be able to curate information that is being shared in order to give the most accurate and credible information to the residents of Cheney.
