  • ‘Revisiting’ a Price Comparison Restaurant Finder App

    MoneySuperMarket-PizzaApp

    Insight

    Many years ago, while conceptualising mobile experience for a London-based creative agency I proposed the following for a price comparison client. I wanted to post it here to illustrate how this type of creative has chnaged since back in the day. I love the mention of the App Store as being an ‘exciting place’, but more importantly I retrospectively enjoy the fluid hand-drawn presentation style I had back then. Read on for more old school insight!

    Insight

    Moneysupermarket (MSM) have a strategy to leverage their comparison brand and branch out into the App market. This is a very exciting space and MSM are keen to increase their presence.

    Brief

    Utilising the API source from Moneysupermarket, deliver a real WOW experience for leveraging to the Moneysupermarket brand a hand-held and convenient way to find a pizza near you. This app will be section designed, filtering out pizza types and sizes, allowing the user to access special deals and discounts relative to their location and providing a unique ‘radar’ feature for locating pizzas.

    MSM offer a difficult branding experience. Purely because the logo and the values of the company contradict each other. Clearly for a unified brand experience there needs to be some consistency – as MSM are generating a family of iPhone Apps, the same (or brand) should run across all interfaces. This App revolved around the red wine colour.

    The End of an Era

    RIP Flash

    Adobe officially announced the end of Flash in 2017. Its inability to adapt to the changing landscape left it vulnerable to the more agile and secure alternatives that had taken center stage.

    While Flash may hold a place in internet history, its reign in the mobile world was short-lived, ultimately succumbing to the demands of a faster, more secure, and user-centric mobile experience.
