Problem Statement

Problem Statement

Traditional pizza ordering methods often involve cumbersome phone calls, lengthy wait times, and limited menu visibility. Existing delivery apps may lack personalization, offer a cluttered user experience, or prioritize large chains over local pizzerias. This creates several key problems for both customers and local pizza businesses:


For Customers:

  • Inconvenience of traditional ordering methods.

  • Difficulty in discovering and comparing local pizza options.

  • Lack of transparency in pricing and delivery times.

  • Limited customization and special requests.


For Local Pizzerias:

  • Increased reliance on phone orders, leading to operational inefficiencies.

  • Difficulty in reaching new customers and expanding their reach.

  • Limited data on customer preferences and order history.

  • High commission fees associated with other delivery platforms.

Approach

Approach

For the mobile application design, a user-centered approach was adopted. Here's a breakdown of the key steps:


  • User Research: Conduct user interviews and surveys to understand user pain points and expectations. This will help identify specific UI and UX issues within the app.

  • Information Architecture (IA) Optimization: Analyze the current app's information structure and identify areas for improvement. Streamlining the flow of information and making it easier to find desired items is crucial.

  • User Interface (UI) Refresh: Design a modern and clean UI that prioritizes clarity and functionality. This includes utilizing intuitive icons, legible fonts, and appropriate color palettes to enhance visual hierarchy.

  • Usability Testing: Conduct usability tests with real users throughout the redesign process. This helps assess the effectiveness of the changes and identify any new usability issues that might arise.

  • Iterative Design: Based on user feedback from testing, iterate on the design to create a final product that is both visually appealing and user-friendly.
