Reducing Soft Barriers in Mobile Apps

I got the pleasure to listen to someone talk about mobile software development and one of the things he mentioned that stuck with me is "Reducing Soft Barriers to Adoption". So in keeping this in mind, I thought I would come up with some ideas to help reduce the soft barriers of SportsFlash.

1. Create as minimal clicks/presses to important screens where the data is targeted and minimal. In SportsFlash, one press from the home screen to see your leagues and then one click to see the team standings.
   
2. Use big fields and buttons to allow people to easily see the data they input, and use a touch screen with.


3. Give users access to community/social tools to help them learn from others. The message board is part of Version 1.0, with more to come.
