Product Design · Accessibility · Built with Anything
HyperLocal is an indoor navigation app concept reimagined with Anything to explore how community-driven accessibility data can empower Neurodivergent and disabled students to navigate campus spaces with confidence.
This new version builds on the original idea with a much more refined user experience, turning HyperLocal into a living system that improves through collective input.
Key updates and features:
Community-Contributed Accessibility Data: The Contribute section is now central to the app, allowing users to report route issues, share updates, and view the status of their submissions, creating a culture of mutual aid and shared accountability for accessible environments.
Comprehensive Accessibility Controls: Settings now include both physical and sensory options, such as avoiding crowds, toggling audio directions, enabling wheelchair-accessible routes, and customizing color modes. These settings are designed to reduce cognitive load and increase comfort for Neurodivergent users.
Recent Routes & Building Directory: Streamlines navigation and builds familiarity, helping users move through large buildings with less stress and uncertainty.
Saved Routes Management: Lets users personalize and organize their most-used paths for reliable, low-effort navigation.
By rebuilding HyperLocal with Anything, I was able to bring the vision of collaborative, inclusive navigation to life, transforming it from a concept into an interactive prototype that demonstrates how technology can foster accessibility through community and care.
