  Planning Process

Inspiration

• Working in primary and urgent care and seeing people be unable to properly manage their conditions
• Too much food in the fridge to throw away
• Too busy to have time to plan recipes and exercise
• iOS and Android Health apps that track user health and make recommendations

What it does

Collects data from health plan, generates meal plan, fitness routine and grocery list according to medical requirements

How we built it

• First we zoomed in to a specific problem
• Looked for the audience that this problem would affect
• Formulated a way to solve these problems in the most efficient way.
• Received feedback from mentors
• inspiration from other apps and what they are doing well.

Challenges we ran into

First idea didn’t work out, we needed to repeatedly pivot and iterate on our past attempts. Had to adapt to unforeseen obstacles and circumstances (Flutter not working, internet going down)

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Proof of concept app, taking an idea and realizing a prototype
• Creating a tool to help a large amount of people with some of their most pressing needs
• Being able to work as a team

What we learned

• Reframing the problem
• Program development from concept, requirements, design, building, testing
• Learned to be creative and adaptable
• Group workflow process, task delegation

What's next for PalatePal
