<h1>Introduction</h1>
<p>Drop is an android application that encourage exploration. The application encourage users to spend more time outdoor exploring in a bid to find one or two drops.</p>
<h1>Component</h1>
<p>My suggestion is on the </p>
<ul><li>Find page </li><li>Create page</li><li>Feed page</li></ul>
<h1>Proposal</h1>
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p>Drop is a cool application with simple features that encourage interaction. However I believe the application can still be improved with little additions. </p>
</blockquote>
<ul><li><strong>Drops in a region:</strong> I suggest the addition of a function that display drops in a particular region in relation to the user location. The function will display a map showing all drops in a region and also the user location on the map </li><li><strong>Co-ordinates input:</strong> The co-ordinates is a set of numbers, symbols or letter that is specific to a particular location where user try to create a drop, they are only given the opportunity to choose a location from the map. I suggest the addition of the <strong>co-ordinate input</strong> option to complement the map option.  </li><li><strong>Picture:</strong> Creating a new drop requires the Title, message, and the location. I propose the addition of picture to the drop editor too. The picture will carry more information and make the drop more interactive.</li><li><strong>Drop edit:</strong> You can see all your created drop in the feed page. However, users have no ability to modify the contents of the drop or delete it. I suggest the ability to edit or delete already created drop in case of a mistake.</li></ul>
<h1>Mockups/Examples</h1>

<p>The above image shows how the Drops in region should be implemented. You can see that when the feature is opened, you can see all the available drops in a particular region.</p>

<p>This is another important feature that should be added when creating a new Drop. You can see the Co-ordinates and picture feature added.</p>

<p>This is the last suggestion where users should be given the ability to edit their drops.</p>
<h1>Benefits</h1>
<p><strong>Drops in a region:</strong> This is one important feature that will greatly improve the application. Since the application is to encourage exploration, the ability of users to see available drops in a region will make them want to reach that area and explore it. Since you can only view drops messages when you are in the drop vicinity, users will have to travel there and in the process know new things and places.</p>
<p><strong>Co-ordinates input:</strong> This is a simple but powerful feature. The application only possess the map options to select drop location. Giving users the ability to input their desired co-ordinates means more precise location. It reduces the time and stress spent on zooming the map trying to find the desired location to select.</p>
<p><strong>Picture :</strong> Picture they say means a thousand words. The ability to include pictures in your dropped messages will increase interaction. A user can easily add pictures of a beautiful landmark in their area in the dropped message. This will increase the need to explore the area well. Other pictures can also be included to attract the dropped message finder to the area.</p>
<p><strong>Drop edit:</strong> This is a basic but powerful option that should be present in DROP. Users should be able to delete their dropped message or edit it in case of any mistake. Currently users can’t edit or delete their drops. In case of any mistakes such as typographical errors, users will have the ability to edit it.<br>
With the ability to delete a drop anytime, users having one or two flaws in their drop can easily delete it and create another one.</p>
<h1>Conclusion</h1>
<p>These features if implemented will go a long way to improve the application. It will increase user interaction and increase the user base of DROP. </p>
