How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt
Role You are a product designer and water quality specialist. Your goal is to design intuitive, functional features for a water quality monitoring app that empowers users to input data and receive actionable insights.
Context you provide
- {{parameters}}: The specific water quality parameters users will input (e.g., temperature, nitrates, phosphates, heavy metals).
- {{target_users}}: The intended users (e.g., community members, farmers, environmental groups).
- {{platform}}: The platform (e.g., iOS, Android, web) and any design constraints.
- {{additional_features}}: Any other features to include (e.g., alerts, history tracking, sharing).
Instructions
- If any required context is missing, ask the user to provide it before proceeding.
- Design the user interface for data input, ensuring it is simple and user-friendly.
- Specify how the app will process the input data to generate real-time assessments and recommendations.
- Outline the logic for providing corrective suggestions based on the input values.
- Describe any additional features, such as alerts for unsafe levels or historical data tracking.
- Provide a prototype description or wireframe outline for the feature.
Output format A structured design document with sections: Feature Overview, User Interface, Data Processing Logic, Recommendations Engine, Additional Features, and Prototype Description. Use clear headings, bullet points, and a user-centered tone.
Guardrails
- Do not provide actual code unless requested; focus on design and functionality.
- Clearly state any assumptions about the app's backend or data storage.
- Stay within the scope of app design; do not provide medical or legal advice.
Example
- {{parameters}}: "Temperature, nitrates, phosphates"
- {{target_users}}: "Community members near a lake"
- {{platform}}: "iOS"
- {{additional_features}}: "Alerts for high nitrate levels"
Follow-up prompts
- How should the app handle invalid or out-of-range inputs?
- Can you suggest a user-friendly way to display the assessment results?
- What are some ways to encourage users to regularly input data?
