1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This SRS describes the software functional and nonfunctional requirement for release 1.0 of
the LetzTalk Android application (hereby called LetzTalk). This document is intended to
be used by potential developers of the project to implement and verify correct functional
of the system. Unless otherwise noted, all requirements specified here are high-priority and
committed for release 1.0.

1.2 Document Conventions

This document uses the following standards to rank requirements and priorities:
1. High: This item must be satisfied or documentented as infeasable as part of the project
success criteria. See Business Objectives and Project Scope section in the Vision and
Scope document.
2. Medium: This item should be satisfied as part of the project success criteria. However,
in the case of limited resources, such as time or budget, high priority items must be
satisfied first.
3. Low: This item could be satisfied if enough resources are available after higher priority
items are satisfied.

1.3 Intended Audience and Reading Suggestions

This document presents a detailed, formal description of LetzTalk requirements. Readers
must be familiar with fundamental architecture of Android. Readers not familiar with An-
droid are suggest to read through Android Basics section on the Android Dev Guide page
[4].

1.4 Project Scope

The scope of the project is currently limited to Android platform. Eventually, the application
will be available on Apples App Store.

1.5 References
Please refer to references section of this document.

2 Overall Description
2.1 Product Perspective
LetzTalk is an Android platform chat application which allows users to chat or video-chat
with one or more random people around world. The system will incorporate an achievements
feature (reward users based on a certain set of criteria) to provide fun to users. The system
is expected to evolve over several different releases, ultimately to other platforms.

2.2 Product Features
LetzTalk will contain a few unique features. LetzTalk will implement text-chat mechanism
using Jabber/XMPP client. It will also implement video-chat mechanism using Flex 4 and
Adobe AIR and it will be powered by LiveCycle Collaboration Service [1]. Additionally,
LetzTalk will ensure an user can maintain active communication with other people despite
evolving network conditions (in such condition where there is no network, the system wont
function properly). Finally, LetzTalk will implement an achievement system which rewards
users based on certain set of criteria. Please refer to the System Features section for detailed
information regarding product features and priorities.

2.3 User Classes and Characteristics

User Class Priority Description

Regular User High The primary users of LetzTalk. They will be provided
with limited functionality.

2.4 Operating Environment

While LetzTalk users may be distributed worldwide, each installation will have all of its com-
ponent devices available locally and users are required to have an Android platform system.

Due to the limited battery-life of mobile devices, LetzTalk may consider power use as a design
factor. This is a low priority extension to LetzTalk.

In addition, due to existence of many different type of Android devices LetzTalk will follow
the compatibility guide line that Google provided on Dev page [2].

2.5 Design and Implementation Constraints

1. The system must run on a Android platform operating system.

2. The system must be conserve the battery life.

3. The system must be able to operate on many different type of Android devices.

2.6 User Documentation

This project will deliver multiple documents in PDF format, including:

1. Description for installing and running LetzTalk.

2. Description for using LetzTalk.

2.7 Assumptions and Dependencies

1. At this stage of the project, LetzTalk will not support operating systems other than
Android.
