INDIVIDUAL ROLE

As one of the main UI Designers, I focused on the design system and main user flows.

[ Challenge + Research ]

What makes something as easy as buying food difficult?

Through three quick research methods with 9 different participants, the reasons why came down to three main things.

No Time -> Wasted Timer

Shoppers who cannot afford the time to plan their grocery trips can spend excess time shopping, forget what their shopping for, or buy unnecessary products.

Preparation

Those who were at least slightly prepared to shop were able to eliminate some of the common issues mentioned before.

No Planning Needed

While it might be easy to buy stuff, planning before grocery trips can be challenging.
