The Problem

Phones are amazing tools in the kitchen especially with recipe apps like ours. However, chopping, rinsing, and transporting ingredients always brings the potential splash that can destroy your device.

What to do? Give up your phone?

What is the background situation you are addressing? Describe the context users are experiencing.

Example:

Buzzer Buddiez:

Who? Students

What? Students are studying for exams

When? 7am

Where? Student dorm

Why? Late night cramming, student likely to oversleep

How can you use your phone while cooking?

The BIG Question

What core question are you addressing with the app?

Examples:

Buzzer Buddiez: how can you avoid oversleeping?

Transit: how can negative teacher feedback be translated accurately?

This app can FIX that

The Solution

Our app uses voice search to enable users to cook while using their phone. It also provides assistance to sight-impaired cooks. This is a new and innovative solution to a problem plaguing many of Americas home cooks.

Key Insight Statement

When you bake with messy items, you get flour and sugar and other ingredients all over your phone, the voice commands can let you bake without touching your phone.

Use your key insights statements from your findings during User Research to provide evidence that your app is solving a genuine problem in a different way for users.

Examples:

Buzzer Buddiez: you wake up to hit snooze/ switch off the alarm, but dont get up. Friends and family i.e. social pressure can help to push you to actually get out of bed.

Transit: parent- teacher conferences are not open-ended conversations. You can map the key areas of negative feedback around attendance, behavior, results etc. to bridge the conversation between parents and teachers.

Feasibility

Recipes:

We have compiled a list of recipes from several sources on the internet, and would add the recipes manually into the program. We would add new recipes as needed through updates.

Voice Function:

The voice function from App Inventor would generate the voice commands.
