Research Results
6/10 people are in a relationship. All of these relationships are long distance (over 50 miles in distance)
All 6 people speak to their partner everyday

Design Ideas
Main benefits:
Notify the other “half” of the calendar - colour coordinations
Allow repeat events/university timetabling (showing both people’s timetables)
Simplicity
Information available at a glance
Connect to Facebook and social networks and update both calendars

Design Direction
We learnt that most couples prefer communication that isn’t instant
All couples we surveyed need better coordination in making plans
