The primary challenge addressed by the Loshi System app is the significant amount of food waste generated in the United States, estimated to be between 30-40% of the food supply. This waste contributes to environmental degradation and squanders valuable resources.
The Loshi System app offers a user-friendly platform that enables individuals and enterprises to track and manage food waste effectively. By providing tools to monitor waste, the app empowers users to make informed decisions and adopt practices that reduce their environmental footprint.

Background research: I did general research on sustainability and food waste reduction to understand the app's purpose and target audience. This included looking at similar companies and non-profits to identify best practices and potential user expectations.
User persona development Based on the research, I created a user persona to represent individuals interested in tracking and reducing their food waste. This persona guided the design decisions throughout the project.
User flow analysis: User flow diagrams were crafted to map out the app's navigation from both user and enterprise perspectives. This step focused on identifying and addressing any usability issues and missing screens.
Wireframing & prototyping: In Figma, I built wireframes and interactive prototypes to visualize the app's layout and functionality. While a lot of the screens had already been designed, I identified missing screens and designed them matching the app's design system and style.
