Autism App Ideas

I’ve been really lucky to have been the project manager of Australia’s most downloaded sports app, AFL Live. I had just moved to Melbourne and it was my first role in the app space rather than generic software development.

When you get to work with product owners and get to observe how users are interacting live with an app inside and outside of a sports environment you get a really good insight of why people use apps and how some features are really helpful and others, not so much.

I had an idea a couple of years ago and created design concepts of how individuals diagnosed with Autism could get more support after school years to have quick access to therapists or coping techniques for those days where days feel too overwhelming when out and about.

With my life changing, taking on more responsibilities and a higher up focus than hands on in the detail I will not be at a detailed level of how these apps could work. That said I really want to list some challenges that Autistic people face in hope that somebody reading this post really wants to take on a challenge and help others, the way I want to.

Below are a list of challenges followed by a list of high level app ideas to give others inspiration!

Challenges

With the above said I’ve listed some app ideas that would really help those with Autism and to be honest… everyone who also do not have Autism too!

Autism App Ideas

I hope you found these useful and create a spark of imagination of how you can help others by building apps, software or resources that align to these challenges or even others that aren’t listed here! Comment and share your ideas to help inspire others!
