As a mobile developer myself, I generally ask myself: “Is there something that I could make that would make a certain goal or task easier?” It’s the reason I’m into mobile developing in the first place.
It doesn’t have to be life-changing or anything. But if it’s something that I can see myself using, I’d have that much more motivation to getting it done.
Here’s a free idea: We all use calculators, right? What could make a calculator better? How about rather than typing in an equation, we can just take a picture of it? Wouldn’t it be nice that it could also recognize word problems as well?
So start with the question: “Is there something that I could make that would make a certain goal or task easier?” The ideas should start rolling in.
