Abstract
The study aims to develop I-Guide: A Map of Aklan State University – Kalibo Campus, a mobile
guide application that provides clear guidance to students, faculty, and visitors on campus. The
app offers the shortest path to specific locations and includes information about school offices
and departmental buildings. Using the Agile Software Development Life Cycle method, the app
enhances navigation and reduces annoyance, making it a useful tool for campus orientation and
assistance. The app includes relevant information on departmental buildings and school offices.
