On Saturday we headed down to Nendrum Monastery to try out the Ghosts of Nendrum app. User-testing existing heritage apps should enable the group to identify the possibilities and limitations of using mobile devices for interpretation. This experience will feed into our next brainstorming session where we will explore the structure and functionality of the Navan Fort Heritage Apps.
