Iteration 1
WHAT
We want to develop an app that can review and order food. This app will include features such as menu translations, delivery through third-party applications and the ability to earn points (pie points) by giving valid reviews and menu translations.
WHO
The application will focus on international tourists coming to China. These tourists are unable to speak Chinese and require the application to help them find nearby restaurants will simple translations and comprehensive reviews.
WHY
We want to help provide a better food experience for tourists in China. We aim to make ordering food simple with an easy to use app. Our app allows the user to choose a restaurant based on its distance and its reviews to ensure the quality of a product.
WHERE
Our main focus will be in Australia and China with menu translations in the following five languages: English, Spanish, Arabic, French, Italian
WHEN
The apps main purpose is to be used when the user is in search of high-quality food near their current location. The app will be most popular during breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
HOW
By having a database of restaurants and their locations and details. These locations will need reviews and translations. We will need to research the local food industries and applications that offer similar features.

- Team Roles
| Date | Discussion |
|---|---|
| 27/06/19 | Our team decided on the industry we will focus on. We have a passion for food and travel so we have decided to combine the two and design an app that will help tourists visiting China to find food. |
| 28/06/19 | During our final meeting of week 1 our team settled on our app idea. We decided our app will be a restaurant-finding app, which focuses on; a) finding restaurants close to the user’s current location b) providing a forum platform for crowdsourced restaurant reviews and ratings c) Providing menu translations (Chinese to English for Australian tourists). |
