FLTR App Sneak Peak

This is my senior thesis project called FLTR which I am currently working on.

My thesis question: "How can an app allow the social media user to curate and organize their mobile experience through an intelligent algorithm paired with highly customizable user controls in which the user views only the content that matters most to them from people they care the most about?"

The results: FLTR, allows you to connect all of your social media accounts together in one place giving you back control of how you experience social media by filtering out and organizing the content from those people who mean the most to you, be in friends, family, creatives or co-workers.

I wanted a chance to create a better user experience for something we all interact with on a daily basis such as social media. The amount of online content created by we as individuals and those we interact with is expanding exponentially. It is becoming more difficult to navigate and curate that content. This theoretical app project will allow me to explore the possibilities that could help better tailor that content to the user some day, and also help me better educate myself in two fields I am very passionate about: People and Technology.
