• Capture and send video
• Data erasure

2.2.2 Prototype iterations

The 100 Roses design went through a number of iterations, from paper-prototype, through lo-fi, to finally hi-fidelity wireframe.

2.2.3 Features de-scoped

The following were de-scoped until core functionality was guaranteed, and until a future round of development:

• Capturing and sending any kind of media formats, since using the camera brought up too many data issues.
• Sending an e-mail, which hinged on the user having an Internet connection and brought up questions about configuration.
• Sending multiple messages, too large of a story
• Fake shutdown, unnecessary due to the disguise
• Data erasure, decrypted SMS messages are already deleted off the phone
• Cancel button pin,not enough time
• UI, focus on features with the understanding that real users would be testing the app in a few weeks for feedback

2.2.4 Feature list which was delivered

• App on phone
• Send SMS to specific recipients
• Attach location and update periodically
• Return to homescreen to “fakeshutdown”
• Effective data erasure
• Encrypted data
