Short description: „Waste less food together“ – What A Waste supports people to reduce food waste in households.

Project description:

What A Waste is a mobile application developed to support people in households with food management and ultimately reduce their food waste. Through a combination of desk research and user interviews we concluded the people struggle with current solutions and need some form of connection between all members in the household. Therefore, we decided to create a simple user interface that features a shopping list, a storage and the household overview which will be shared among all members. To avoid buying groceries other members won´t or simply can´t eat, the app will provide information about everyone´s diets, allergies and favourite food items. Additionally, people will see the statistics of their wasted food to motivate them to do better in the future. We improved the efficiency of the application usage by testing the app with over 30 people of our target group and implementing their feedback.
