To create a brand & mobile application for the new “Spot” camera, a life-logging wearable due to be launch in 2016.
The campanion app is built for both iPhone and Android and contains a uniquely built algorithm that was designed to identify key moments in time that are worth making special efforts to capture.

With the brand being new, we were able to define the value proposition that would influence the strategic direction the product would need go towards.
