So, the question “What operating system is used by your smartphone?” will allow us to know which mobile platform to we should develop for first. The required questions, are chosen because student’s are able to answer it. For example, “Do you own a Smartphone?” If the reply is Yes, the respondent can proceed to the next question to select the mobile platform they use. However, if the reply is “no”, the respondent is not required to answer the next question. After the first draft of our survey was introduced, our peers had given us many critique. We’ve made many changes to our survey since then. One of the critique was there are many irrelevant questions. Our revised version is more focused on the application development. Irrelevant questions were taken out, and it became more refine. The first survey was messy since it was created on Microsoft Doc. Our current survey is created on “Google survey”, which provides easier view of the statistic and simpler for respondents to complete and submit their result.
