Alpha Release to Friends and Family

Distributed the app for iOS via Test Flight.

I learned a lot that I hadn't been aware of;

  • I needed to do more to educate users on the point scoring. In fact, onboarding in general needs more TLC.
  • I needed to educate better that some similar foods are healthier than others
  • A bug that I knew existed and could be tolerated was more frustrating for users than I envisaged
  • Overall, my hypothesis of simply tracking food isn't enough to change behaviour. Aspects of gamification should be introduced to try and nudge users.
  • People didn't like the name 'Lhotse' - there was confusion on how to pronounce it so I should consider renaming the product.
