Iteration A

02.11.16_mobilemedia_app_jlh

This is my first iteration of the Go!Curry app.

One big thing I learned from the paper prototypes and Drew is to simplify the experience. Here are some questions and considerations I would love your feedback on regarding the user journey:

  1. Allergies
  2. Add to favorites ? / Save order
  3. Pick Up /  Drop Off
  4. Sign In / Sign Up
    – I plan to have this view after the food selection has been complete, instead of it being one of the first prompts.

    Further updates will be posted soon!
