Bubble

An app that fosters meaningful connections and lasting relationships through personality-based interactions using voice, text, and limited matches.

Project Background

This project was inspired by a challenge I noticed while working at Starbucks: customers placing large group orders often struggled with using multiple forms of payment. This complicated their experience, especially when order details were unclear. To simplify this process, I proposed adding a group order feature to the Starbucks app's mobile ordering system.

What we know about Starbucks?

  • Starbucks is the most popular coffee company in the world
  • Starbucks began in 1971
  • Starbucks integrate a loyalty program where customers earn stars for purchases, redeemable for free items

User Research

User Research

To define the problem and integrating group feature into Starbucks app, I conduced qualitative research using interviews, as our primary method. I conducted 5 user interviews between the age of 25-42.

Some Interview Questions included:

  • Can you tell me about your experience using Starbucks App?
  • How frequently do you use the app, and for what purposes?
  • Have you encountered any challenges or frustrations related to placing orders while using the Starbucks app?
  • How likely would you use the group order feature, if it were available?

Affinity Map

To synthesize the valuable insights gathered from user interviews, I organized the feedback into an affinity map. This visual representation allowed us to identify common themes and pain points, guiding the next steps in our design process.

User Persona

Based on the insights from my user interviews and affinity map, I created a user persona to better understand our target audience's needs, behaviors, and pain points, which will infr and guide my design decisions.

User Journey Map

After crafting the user persona, I developed a user journey map for our group feature on the Starbucks app to visualize the user experience, ensuring a seamless and engaging interaction at every step.

Prioritized Features

I thought up ideas for product features and ranked them by what I absolutely needed for a successful launch, what would be a good to have if I have time, and what I can add later In updates.
