Challenges

Location-Based Functionality

  • The app needed to accurately determine the user's location and display nearby cafes.

Search Filters

  • Users required the ability to filter cafes by various attributes such as cuisine type, distance, rating, average check, operating hours, and more specific needs like pet-friendliness.

Reservation System

  • An automated system for users to reserve tables with specific details such as date, time, and party size was essential.

User Engagement

  • The app needed features to encourage repeat use, such as user profiles that saved preferences and past activities.

Cafe Onboarding

  • The app required a way for cafes to add themselves to the platform, with an admin panel for managing these entries.

Route Planning

  • Integration with Google Maps for easy navigation to selected cafes was necessary.

Solutions Implemented

Automated Reservation System

  • We developed a reservation system allowing users to easily select the date, time, and number of people for their booking. This system was fully automated, providing convenience for both users and cafes.

Advanced Search and Filtering

  • The app featured a robust search function with filters for cuisine type, distance, rating, average check, and more. Users could also filter cafes by specific criteria like "pets friendly" and "open now."

User Profiles

  • We introduced user profiles that saved individual preferences, favorite cafes, and previous reservations. This feature enhances user engagement by providing a personalized experience.

Cafe Management and Admin Panel

  • We created an admin panel within the app that allowed cafes and restaurants to add their details, including menus, operating hours, and reservation options. This empowered cafes to manage their presence on the platform.

Google Maps Integration

  • We integrated Google Maps to provide route planning, enabling users to navigate to their chosen cafes directly from the app.

Push Notifications

  • Implemented push notifications to inform users about reservation confirmations, updates, and special offers.

Development of Review Module with Comments and Statuses

  • We built a review module that allows agents and users to provide feedback, add comments, and track the status of their tickets, enhancing transparency and collaboration.

Geolocation Module Integration

  • The system now features geolocation integration, allowing agents to better track and manage tickets based on the geographical location of requests, improving service response times.
