Assignment 2 – Problem Statement and SCQA
The following is our groups Problem statement to our App Idea:
“Adults waste food they already have and money on takeaways because they lack food knowledge and what to
do with their ingredients.”
SCQA
Situation Complication Question Answer
According to “The
Guardian”, just under half
of the UK population now
owns a smartphone.
According to the NHS,
takeaways are often
cheap, convenient and
satisfying but,
unfortunately, they're
not always very healthy.
NHS say, The average
takeaway pizza costs
around £10, and if you
add a fizzy drink and
potato wedges it adds up
to a massive 1,060
calories: that's almost
half the daily allowance
for a woman.
Our app idea, Time4Food,
hopes to solve situations
such as having no time to
cook, eating unhealthily,
not knowing what to
make with the little food
you have. Our app idea
lists you out with all the
possible things you can
make with the food you
have, It can also help you
to eat healthily. It saves
time and money by
preventing you from
ordering takeaway and
wasting massive amounts
of money every year.
Every week millions of
students and adults
sadly waste food and
money because of lack
of time.
They resort to buying
takeaways which
results in a massive
amount of money lost
every year.
This will have a massive
impact on the amount
of money you save
every year.
With prices raising you
will realize that you are
wasting food and going
way over your daily
calorie allowance.
Instead of you saving
money at the end of
every year, the amount
you have been saving
has begun to decrease
compared to each year
that passes.
What can we do to
help millions of people
save food and prevent
them from becoming
overweight by wasting
money on unhealthy
takeaways?
Under half of the UK
population carries a
smartphone.
Time4Food will help
them to save money
because it reminds
them that there is
always at home ready
for you to cook as long
as you have food in
your home.

Who
Our app will be aimed at people who waste a lot of food and parents who don’t have great
knowledge of how to cook. For example, if you have a lot of food in your fridge and you don’t know
what to do with them, you type the ingredients down in our app and it will tell you variety of
delicious recipes you can cook with them and also there is tutorial video for popular foods like pasta
moreover, if you have a lot of children in your family and your wife or yourself is busy to cook, you
can always order food from our app and also we have links to top popular food take away for e.g.
Pizza hut.
Why
This app will be created because we want our audience to save money and not waste food. Our app
will save a lot of food that goes to waste and this will decrease the amount of global warming, we
believe that our customers will be happy about saving money and this might sort out their financial
problems. This app is specially designed for people who have families and kids. We know how busy
they get when they are looking after their kids so this helps them to save time by giving fast tutorial
of how to cook sensational dishes.
Where
This app will mostly use when people comeback from their work to home. This is because that is the
time when parents have to cook dinner or lunch for their family. If you have huge amount of food in
your fridge that is going to be wasted you can use our app to cook luxurious recipes, this way will
help our busy parents to save money and food.
When
Our app will mostly be used when your fridge contains a lot of food and you don’t know what to
cook with them. You will have to type the ingredients that you have in your fridge and our app will
show tutorials and recipes of what you can make with those ingredients. Also if you have a really bad
knowledge of how to cook, our app will also show videos on how to cook the fastest recipes at any
time.
What
Time4Food is an app idea that helps you to save money, food and time. It gathers up all the food in
your home and lists out all the possible recipes you could make with them. So instead of ordering
out for a greasy takeaway it will help you to save money. Time4Food gathers all this great food and
presents you with new & existing recipes to try out.

Assignment 3 – Market Research
The following research is done on the Alternatives to our app idea. As a group we feel that the
android platform, there aren’t any apps that will solve our problem as effectively. For us to research
on this topic of Alternative this mainly comprised of secondary research. We did this by exploring
apple and Android app stores.
Part of our group took the role of researching using secondary data. One method they used was
searches over the Internet to find any other apps that are comparable to ours.
The following research is regarding the Users of our app. As a group we feel that there are people
who are in need of our app. Our research method on our users was carried out by our primary
researchers. These were conducted by the other half of the group. We found that 85% of those who
were surveyed needed our app. The age range of our users on average would be 16-25.
