Roommate User Flow
ORIGINAL USER FLOW
DESIRED FLOW
ITERATE USER FLOW
I wanted to start with a flow targeted for consumers that have roommates first. Because after analyzing the data that showed even married couples have roommates, this app would mostly be focusing and beneficial towards that market.
BASIC WIRE FRAME LAYOUT
The idea is simple — an app for roommates to shop together and not to buy the same product, food, or things around the lawn at the same time. This will avoid texting and waiting for a reply when you are trying to leave the store already.

Next Steps
-
Create a more visual prototype to be tested.
-
Add a payment method system to be able to transfer money for a particular product.
-
Have an inventory sheet that can track how much and who has bought what products throughout the week.
-
Do more studies on married couples to see if it would be useful.
