We're working with Where's Good to deliver a new app that will help users locate and book the best bars, restaurants, clubs and events in their town.
About The Client
Where’s Good is an exciting new app that allows users to uncover the latest and greatest spots for food, drinks, events and entertainment around you. The app combines the best of both worlds with functionality built for both businesses and consumers, displayed in an intuitive, easy to use interface.
The Problem
It can be challenging to locate a social space that will meet your needs when you are visiting a new place for the first time (or perhaps haven't been there in a while), whether it be a town, city, or small village. Some might prefer a busy bar or restaurant for the atmosphere, while others might prefer a calm setting to catch up with friends or receive service more quickly. At the moment, the process of joining up with your friends in an environment that suits all can be difficult, involving multiple phones and a back and forth of “who’s been here” and “this place is nice, but doesn’t get good until later”.
The Solution
In order to achieve the project goals of the Where’s Good, we undertook our discovery process, exploring the aims and objectives of the project, as well as the core success metrics. Alongside the desktop studies done within this process, we created a series of user profiles that highlight a range of qualitative and quantitative opinions of a successful app in this market, including their goals, current frustrations and lifestyles.
Combining this process with the brief provided by Where’s Good, we were able to produce a scope of work (SOW) that communicated the development logistics required for the completion of the product across an MVP, and plan for future phases and iterations.
The app utilises an intuitive heat map with a high refresh rate to project a visualisation of occupancy at venues within a users area, overlaid on a familiar map layout. From here, users are able to select locations, see relevant information provided by the businesses, and make a reservation or booking. Afterwards, users are able to provide feedback about their experience.
For businesses, the app provides further advertisement opportunities, with the ability to list their profile, and showcase their services or products via banners, and events.
Where’s good is currency under construction, stay tuned to find out all the latest about it’s release.
