    Feedbacks on mockups:
    1. a. Rename "Home" to something else (like basecamp or pit stop) because “home” sounds like a permanent/long term place.
    2. b. fix the dropdown functionalities when setting a place to be the homebase
    3. c. Fix filter button to be consistent with other android apps.
    4. d. Use an up (^) arrow on the List pull up item to indicate to the user that functionality
