Application is for helping people with diets and finding recipes.

December 2022

The problem: 

People want to eat healthy meals and be aware of their diet.

The goal: 

Create app that will allow to browse recipes, add user’s diet and manage shopping list.

My role: 

UX researcher, UX designer, UI designer​​​​​​​

user research, wireframing, prototyping, designing

I conducted user interviews and created empathy maps to understand the users. A primary user group identified through user research was working adults with some diets or meal problems.

This user group revealed problems like: Add/Edit my diet, Search based on diet, Create shopping list to know what to buy.

1. Searching with the diet - Needs of searching based on diets. 

2. Shopping list - Do not know what to buy to cook the meal based on the recipe.

3. Accessibility - Missing assistive technologies
