Project 3: Low-Fidelity Prototype

For this task, we will be creating a low-fidelity prototype for our mobile application. This prototype should include wireframes and a visual design concept that aligns with the branding of our application.

The purpose of this task is to test and validate the user flow and user experience of our application before moving on to higher-fidelity prototypes. By creating a low-fidelity prototype, we can quickly iterate on our design and make necessary adjustments based on user feedback.

Reflection

Designing the app has been tough. Each page's layout, buttons, and look are confusing. Picking the right icons is also hard. In my pursuit, I find myself inadvertently swayed by existing food delivery applications' designs, struggling to strike a balance between inspiration and originality. I want to submit on time, but I also want the app to be the way I imagine. It's a struggle to find the right balance. I wish I could add more to the app, but I can't figure out what's really needed. I need to find a middle ground between making it easy and making it just the way I want it.
