ROLE: Product Designer
Challenge
How might we encourage people to take balanced meals and on time because they often forget to eat and end up eating whatever is available which is not good for their health.
Research
I conducted interviews, and created empathy maps to understand the users I’m designing for, their thoughts, wants, believes and needs. The 2 primary users are professionals who have busy schedules and also married people who have to prepare meal for the family and are stuck with what meal to prepare.
Pain Points
People don’t know what to eat when they are hungry.
People don’t have proper knowledge of what balanced meal is.
The Paper timetable get damaged or lost easily and have no way to notify.
User Persona
Solution
Everymeal will let users have a meal planner which will affect people who are busy and have difficulties remembering to eat and or eat junk foods by reminding the users when its time and also make the meal they set a balanced diet. We will measure the effectiveness by checking the feedback and also the usage of the App.
