‘Revisiting’ a Price Comparison Restaurant Finder App

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.

Loading Screen

Following the suite of application already in existence this home page uses a brand texture while re-enforcing the new icon.

Home

‘Hot Deal’ and ‘New Offer’s are previewed via a carousel, the phone location software allows for offer nearst to you and feeds the ‘Latest Deals’ – all feed direct to the home page.

Pizza Price Compare

Selecting a slice size and topping the app then uses the MSM customised API source to find pizzas set to that criteria.

Radar

Adding a certain element that is both fun and ‘gimmicky’ the radar screen rotates and blips on finding the pizza near you.

Registration page

Adding your postcode and email address allows for MSM to feed your voucher and supply the user with an improved experience.
