Kahae Jeong – Week 1

Hi! I am Kahae. I am currently working as a UX designer at ServiceNow in Santa Clara, CA. I am in NYC for this program and am so excited to work on design challenges outside of work and of course, to explore the city as well 😉 Let me know if you have any recommendations to do or eat in NYC!
I will be working on a new feature for Whole Foods app.
Wholefoods’ new feature allows the user to keep track of their food supply by tracking the food ordered from Wholefoods or by the user manually adding food items. It also suggests recipes using the remaining ingredients, the quantity of food to buy and suggest adjustments to improve purchasing behavior, reduce waste, save money. It also helps users eat fresh by only buying the freshest ingredients when & amount they need it.
This feature is for the environmentally conscious users who are in touch with their health and wellness. They want the brands they buy to support causes they care about and also look to save as much as possible when shopping.

iOS
-
iPhone has Super Retina display with a scale factor of @3x. (Thought it was still @2x)
-
Phone X has a different aspect ratio than 4.7″ iPhones. As a result, full-screen 4.7″ iPhone artwork appears cropped or letterboxed when displayed full-screen on iPhone X. (DId not consider this when I design at work)
3. Question: When I am designing, do I need to design to the smaller mobile screen? It seems like iPhone is unique than others so maybe design for iPhone X?

We chatted about this a bit in class, but you’ve given yourself a very big project: basically redesigning the whole foods app with a main concern of food supply tracking. You should look for ways to limit the scope of the project but keep it coherent.
Since whole foods is all amazon now, I’d imagine sign in would all be through Prime/Amazon accounts.
Cart feels like it should be a full tab.
Jumping between tabs with a link is disorienting. You can drive users to the overview view without the tab hopping link.
There is so much that could be explored on the shop tab, but since you’re focusing on waste, it’d be great to somehow feature that more clearly on this tab.
The just images for buy again isn’t enough. You should add text.
