Description
This project seeks to motivate runners by creating an application that selectively plays music based on smartwatch metrics. This is done by analyzing metrics collected through a person’s smartwatch such as heart rate or running power and then selecting the music that best fits their workout’s intensity. This way, as the workout becomes harder for the user, increasingly motivating music is played.

Description
In response to the lasting negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on driver’s education and road safety, this thesis is intended to create an iOS application that recognizes and reports on poor driving habits. The end user opens the application to start a trip, the application records GPS data and information from APIs containing environmental information in a consistent, synchronized manner, patterns in said data are analyzed by the application to flag events representing different issues when driving, and when the user presses a button to end the trip, a report of the events is presented.
The project was developed using a complete design process, including a full Research and Development process and detailed design documentation. Separate components of the application were developed in an iterative structure, with GPS information, the data synchronization system, API parsing and recording, data analysis, and feedback all being designed and tested separately. The application ultimately reached late beta status, with target stability and test results being achieved in typical use cases.

Description
User interface development on iOS is in a major transitionary state as Apple introduces a declarative and interactive framework called SwiftUI. SwiftUI’s success depends on how well it integrates its new tooling for novice developers. This paper will demonstrate and discuss where SwiftUI succeeds and fails at carving a new path for user interface development for new developers. This is done by comparisons against its existing imperative UI framework UIKit as well as elaborating on the background of SwiftUI and examples of how SwiftUI works to help developers. The paper will also discuss what exactly led to SwiftUI and how it is currently faring on Apple's latest operating systems. SwiftUI is a framework growing and evolving to serve the needs of 5 very different platforms with code that claims to be simpler to write and easier to deploy. The world of UI programming in iOS has been dominated by a Storyboard canvas for years, but SwiftUI claims to link this graphic-first development process with the code programmers are used to by keeping them side by side in constant sync. This bold move requires interactive programming capable of recompilation on the fly. As this paper will discuss, SwiftUI has garnered a community of developers giving it the main property it needs to succeed: a component library.

Description
Less than half of all premedical applicants get accepted into a medical school, 39.3% of applicants to be precise, and that statistic is based on the number of matriculants out of the total applicants in 2015. With such a discouraging acceptance rate, many students who start out as premed are often not towards the end of their undergraduate career and post-graduation because they do not feel prepared for medical school. It’s difficult for premed students to find all the information they need in one place rather than going from place to place or school website to school website. Additionally, it can be a hassle for premeds to keep track of all their coursework and calculate separate GPAs for each category especially due to how annoying Excel spread sheets can be. This is where the conceptualization of Premed Portfolio comes in. Premed Portfolio is a prototype mobile application. Premed Portfolio aims to streamline the process of preparing for medical school by guiding students to create a portfolio aimed to address the most important aspects of a medical school application. Students will be able to keep track of their cumulative GPA, BCPM (also known as science/math) GPA, MCAT Scores, prerequisite coursework and many more targeted areas of medical school. Premed Portfolio will also hope to use the stats that students provide and educate them on their chances of getting into medical school.

Description
Finding applications on Apple’s iOS device Home screen is a difficult task since applications are arranged in a disorganized grid of icons and small labels. By “jailbreaking” an iOS device, it is possible to install third party “tweaks” that modify the operating system to customize and fix annoying aspects of iOS. Current jailbreak tweaks exist that can launch applications differently than Apple’s stock Home screen, but they leave much to be desired in terms of functionality, usability, and aesthetics. HomeList is a watchOS-inspired tweak I created to add an easy to read, quick to navigate, and visually appealing list of applications integrated directly into the Home screen. Research into Apple’s private iOS frameworks was used to figure out how to perform tasks required by an app launcher as well as match iOS design aesthetics.
