Here are a few shots from the second week of user testing. After applying feedback I created a new interactive prototype. Stephanie and Young tested my second iteration. I will be working to make the button size more comfortable for my users in the next iteration. 
Prototyping session with Hazel + class critique of presentation
Wireframe feedback
Mockup feedback
POP Prototyping tool feedback
Feedback Results:
Hazel thought the concept was good but, like everyone else in the class, did not like the “shake” function. As it was a very last minute addition, I have no problems with deleting the shake function as a whole. 🙁
Other feedbacks to implement for next prototype are:
– Concentrate more towards my specific user regarding purchasing of ingredients. (People usually don’t go to groceries just to buy ingredients for one meal)
– Add a small timer so that people can go to the next steps instead of waiting for # minutes.
– Adding pictures, instead of cartoon drawings, are better for people to realize exactly what the ingredient looks like.
– Clearly indicate, with picture, if the ingredient is raw or cooked, etc.
– In measurements of ingredients, comparison method? (cup, tablespoon, teaspoon)
– NO SHAKE.
I’ve updated my wireframes to respond to the feedback I got during my user-testing, my presentation, and from Drew. Here is what I’ve changed
Here’s the Link: App Map v2.
I’ll Have What He’s Having (working title)
My idea for a food app is an app that helps you discover the food you can order at restaurants that isn’t on the menu and is spread by word of mouth. After talking through my first round of wireframes it was clear there wasn’t enough information – especially visual information to make the app interesting to explore. In my second iteration of my wireframes I have added the ability to save your favorite items as well as add pictures and variations on the food items. I really want to stray away from creating a social network out of this app and am looking at it from the view point of a user generated and curated index – similar to how wikipedia is run.

Mani had a chance to test out my digital prototype in the POP app.
Its feedback time!
Round 1 : last week proved that I needed to keep language consistent across the app to minimize confusion. I also needed to add a search bar, potentially a “featured” section, in addition to imagery when working through the steps of each “How to”.
Round 2 : Pictures with step by step directions went over well. I fixed the language throughout the app so that it was consistent in addition to adding a search bar, and a “featured” section. Positive feedback received on the “featured” section to add credibility. Nav bar is sorted out and worked well with user scenario.
Looking forward to adding more design to the wireframes and get more feedback next week!
Beef Stew(working title): creating playlists based on your favorite foods and ingredients.
Users mentioned that they found the app quick and user friendly. They were concerned with placement of the playlist icon and a sharing feature. User’s stressed that they would like to ability to share playlists they create. All and all good feed back and I feel ready to move on to the design aspect of development. During the design process I will focus on communicating with clean and simple iconography. 
A bit of progress in “I’dliketoeat”. Wireframing for the landing page, location based finder, list and map view as well as sliding menus.
These are the revised site map and wireframe.
