A nutrition coaching app for all user types looking to meet specific nutrition and health goals.
Users, like Miguel - a busy bartender - and Marie - a school teacher, need nutritional suggestions to meet their personal desired fitness and health goals.
To help users make better meal and snacking nutritious choices and for improving health through chosen health goals.
The primary users are for all individuals looking to choose healthier nutrition options to establish better nutritional habits and to meet personal health goals.
After interviewing individuals that would find the app useful, a few pain points were identified.
Most phones already come with a native health app such as Apple Health and Samsung Health
Users want an app that can work offline as well as online
Users need to be able to log meals that are deemed "unhealthy" simply for meal logging purposes

| Task List | An hour before a meal time, Miguel/Mariel decide to use the app to help them decide on a suggested nutritionally healthy meal |

| Feeling Adjective | Feels good and invigorated that they will be choosing a healthy nutritional meal | Feels good about using the app | Feels happy to find some good meal suggestions | Likes that the meal is detailed and can view all the nutritional information | Feels good that they picked a healthy meal to have |
| Improvement Opportunities | Add a weekly scheduled calendar if the user decides to plan out their meal choices in advance |
In designing the app, these were some of the accessibility considerations that were noted as features that would be helpful to the user.
Language Translation:
The inclusion of live text is important so that language translation can be performed by the device
Offline Access:
Users need to ability to access and log meals even if that app is offline
Screen Reader:
Live text is should be used for reading by the device
As seen below, this is the app site map showing the sections/pages needed for the app.
My initial designs as seen below, are variations of how users would move through the nutrition app as they begin from logging in or setting up an account to landing on the main dashboard, logging meals and viewing their progress goals on a timeline.
After narrowing down a few of the sketched wireframes, I decided to develop the app as seen below, again with an initial sign-up process and then a main dashboard for the user to land on after signing in.
With the app, a user would be able to view their progress and data with a breakdown by month, week and day.
I conducted an unmoderated usability test with the digital wireframes and had some positive feedback about the app.
With testing and initial feedback complete, it was time to start creating mockups and hi-fidelity designs.
After the user process steps of the app was set in the wireframing phase, it was time to move onto the visual look of the app.
Once the imagery, buttons, colors, and fonts were set, the mockup was ready for it's prototype setup. The prototype can be viewed and interacted with from the links below.
With the completion and launch of the nutrition app, user feedback will be welcome as part of the normal iterative process and will be used to enhance the app.
