"We need a way to log flight times instantly"

How about on their Apple Watch?

Apple Watch App

Our pilots couldn't use the Logten iOS app due to cabin space restrictions, wifi signal inconsistency and lack of multitasking focus.

Pilots also didn't want to spend time retroactively enter flight times when they were off duty.

After studying the Apple (HIG) I designed, tested and iterated on an extremely well received solution in the form of an Apple Watch app that allows the pilots to tap once to record all 4 flight times without having to take their eyes and focus off their instruments.

Let's white label public transit

LogTen App

Public transportation riders have become accustomed to attending concerts, boarding flights, and attending movies with tickets purchased exclusively through their mobile phones.

However, achieving such parity in the public transit space is an expensive and challenging task.

Knowing this, I asked: how might we build a white label mobile ticketing application that can adapt to the diverse needs of many transit agencies, and provide riders with a modern and trusted platform for navigating complex public transit fare systems?
