| dc.description.abstract | Mealify addresses the challenges of rising grocery prices and the need for complex recipes by providing an innovative meal-planning app experience that combines extensive recipe options with real-time pricing information from nearby stores. Designed with practicality, Mealify streamlines recipe searches, allowing users to find recipes based on their dietary preferences and budget. This paper goes through the process of developing an iOS app, including the initial ideation, technologies used, and the front and backend logic of each view throughout the app. After the first iteration of Mealify, a case study was conducted with other similar apps on the market to compare the performance in supporting a specific use case. Mealify showed strengths in recipe searching capabilities by providing the ideal recipe that fits the use case constraints. The results also revealed opportunities for improving the efficiency of grocery acquisitions and cooking guidance. Ultimately, this project lays the groundwork for advancing recipe-based price searching, a crucial step towards empowering users to make more informed decisions about their meal planning and recipe selection. | en_US |
