Purpose
I experienced the issue of feeding yourself for the first time. As a student, cooking seems to be time consuming and annoying. But doesnât have to be. Like GU has shown in a cook book series for lazy people I could imagine to cooperate with.

Hence, I thought about a direction to take. Opting against the mood board shown above. Cause it seems to be a little childish. Not likely to convince males as well as females. Like the other one does. In addition to the joy that is transmitted. In both.

Preference Testing
To provide an excellent user experience, I strived for a pleasing appearance of my app. Inquiring users for their preferences. And, last, but not least, the avoidance of dark patterns. That ruin the trust in you and your product.
