Overview

Description

Nutrionapp is a nutrition app that assists people in pursuing a healthy and nutrient balanced lifestyle. The app is powered by the Nutritionix Database that has data on over 1 million data points on common foods, grocery and restaurant items. The app can suggest, track, customize a healthy diet for you ensuring each one of your users to be as healthy as possible. The app can also suggest the most cost efficient location to purchase these items.

App Evaluation

[Evaluation of your app across the following attributes]

• Category: Lifestyle/ Diet/ Health
• Mobile: This app would be primarily developed for mobile but would perhaps be just as viable on a computer, such as tinder or other similar apps. Functionality wouldn’t be limited to mobile devices, however mobile versions could potentially have more features.
• Story: Gather general health status and analyze users' food choices, to suggest a diet plan that helps users to balance nutrients, and reach their goals. This app will coach and support the user in this diet process.
• Market: Any individual of any age group could choose to use this app as this app does not have access accounts nor store any user information; This makes our app very secure and accessible. This app will also consider all users' culture foods as well truly being inclusive to all populations.
• Habit: This app could be used as often or often as the user wanted depending on their own will and perseverance on a healthy life. It's also what exactly the user is looking to improve in their diet and health.
• Scope: First we would start with just suggesting basic diet plans to users, then perhaps this could evolve into an individual diet/health coach that is tailor made for all users, as this progresses we broaden the apps usage and funcatilties. Eventually the application will have a large potential for use and be supported with apple health or samsung health.
