Keywords:
Culinary Experiences, Reduced Function Devices, Food OrderingAbstract
Objective: The purpose of this study is to provide insights into food delivery services, discuss the history of food delivery apps in general as well as how to place an order for meals using one of these apps. It is assumed that this period is the era of information technology and people are accustomed to using computers and mobile devices today. Methods: This study majorly focuses on the 14 various categories of food ordering methods that are available at present, both manual and computerized. Then a thorough explanation of each category is followed. Later, several frequently used applications were assessed. The technology behind these applications is then highlighted.
Findings: According to the study’s findings, today’s generation is increasingly using digital applications in their meal-ordering systems. Application/Improvement: However, there are still significant usability problems with the existing food delivery apps that are accessible. Mobile applications that strictly adhere to usability norms and criteria must be designed.
Conclusion: The proposed systems for meal ordering, food delivery, related applications are presented in this study. There are, however, numerous disadvantages. In the traditional procedure, the waiter takes the customer’s order, records it on paper, then delivers it to the kitchen for processing. The introduction of a personal digital assistant system addresses the shortcomings of the traditional paper-based approach. Then came wireless meal ordering systems, which allowed customers to provide comments in real-time. Although the ordering and delivery of meals is now done via mobile devices, there is still significant usability difficulties. Now, in order to address all of these systems’ usability difficulties and current client needs, we are developing a usable meal delivery application.
