Foodie

What is it?

People can easily spend a minute to half an hour deciding what to eat. New York Post's article states that American couples spend 132 hours a year, or 5.5 days per year, deciding what to eat, which is a lot of time wasted that can be used for something more productive. This led us to ask the question: “How can we help the public decide on food faster and know where to go to get the food?”

Upon tackling this question, we arrived at our solution, which is our app, Foodie, the main aim of which is to help users decide what to eat judging by the locations near them.

Our app has many main features, such as user authentication, reviewing, adding, and viewing food places, as well as viewing and adding food places to your “history”. One of the features is basic user authentication, where users can edit their name and have to log in using their username, email and password. Users can also view the current food places in the app in the form of a map markers, which will lead to a separate page that describes the food place in more detail. If a certain food place does not exist in the app, users can fill in a few text fields and add food places to the app. There is also a “history” function in our app, which allows users to check the time, date, and location of where they ate. However, for these food places to be in the app’s “history”, the user has to add it to their history by filling in the date, timing, and which food place was eaten at (Food place has to be in the app). Lastly, we have reviewing of food places, where users can review food places after adding that food place to their app history. Each review has a rating and a review description, and users can view each review and the overall rating when the food place is being viewed.

This app gives users the ability to see their food options in a more visual manner, allowing them to make faster decisions on what they want to eat.
