Possible Improvements

There are several possible improvements, additional features that will hopefully be added to the app in the future. This list was prepared for a collaborative student project at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) that takes place during the Spring of 2020.

  • Sync with other museum AV technology. Two systems to explore are Watchout and Brightsign.
  • Add the possibility to stream audio from a museum server instead of bundling all audio in the initial app download.
  • Fetch current information “Today at the museum” from a museum website and display in the app.
  • Add the possibility to update app content from a CMS, preferably standard ones such as Wordpress. And/or improve the current process using Google Spreadsheets.
  • Map views for indoor and/or outdoor use.
  • Refined use of iBeacons to show nearby content.
  • Add RFID as an input method in addition to entering digits.
  • Add scrubbing to the audio progress bar
  • Handle dark mode in iOS 13
