Lost In The Woods(圖1)-速報App

Ever found yourself lost in a trail system with no map? This app will help!

Let me introduce myself. My name is Brandon, a Junior at Washington State University. Lost In The Woods is a simple solution to a problem that I often encountered when back home for school breaks. I would find myself going into the nearby trail system, without a map, and needing a way to make sure I knew how to get home after taking several turns and twists. To ensure I made it home, each time I encountered a situation where I had to make a choice (turn left or right, keep going straight), I made a note of the choice I made in my head. I kept doing this for each choice that I made. Once I was ready to go home, I simply reversed this list that was in my head, and also reversed each choice (left became right, right became left, straight... well .... stayed straight) which resulted in an easy to follow instruction list to guide me home.

While this solution worked well, I was always limited by my ability to remember all of these choices! So I set out to create a more effective solution. Yeah, I know a lot of you are thinking I could've just used a pen and paper, or found a map somewhere, or, ya know, gotten a bigger brain. But what fun is any of that?

So here is my more cool, more fun to use, more everything solution that I call "Lost In The Woods" (pretty clever name, right?). This app mimics the process I used to undergo to not get lost, but instead uses a phone's storage device rather than my much more limited and much more distracted storage device (my brain).

So to anyone who has encountered a similar problem in their life, or to anyone who just likes pressing buttons on your phone screen, I hope this app can provide some value to your life like it has to mine :)
