Kitchen Tips

  • Sophie Caitriona Woodhead

Kitchen Tips is a platform designed for young people who are not very confident in their cooking skills or want to enhance their skills, to get advice from real people who are more experienced and knowledgeable about cooking, therefore enhance their confidence in cooking. The aim of this concept is to help young people feel confident cooking their own meals and to reduce reliability on takeaway foods and ready meals. This came from research that found young people between 16-25 years olds are not totally confident in their cooking and young people are spending more money on takeaway meals due to a lack of cooking confidence, which could potentially affect their health. The full prototype can be viewed here: https://xd.adobe.com/view/f0915e1e-1ec1-499a-628b-69fc547c28f6-86a0/?fullscreen

Our app has two sign up options for users: A Head Chef: signing up with the main intention of giving advice and sharing personal content. An Apprentice: signing up to ask questions and receive advice from others to gain cooking knowledge. Each head chef has a rating based on the likes they get for their advice and content, which means apprentices can see who they can trust based on their rating. Users can also block and report users for inappropriate content, or unfollow users with content they dislike. This is important as a safety feature to help monitor user behaviour and prevent inappropriate content to keep users safe and allow the users to trust the app and the advice they are recieving.
The app also allows users to save content they like or would like to go back to and use. The user can access these through the menu under the three 'saved' pages. Each page saves particular content, one page being for questions, one being for tutorials and one being for recipes.
