5. Top 3-4 problems  Pantry : we want to be able to keep an inventory of the groceries we already have  Shopping List : a list that can automatically generate based on recipes the user has selected and whats currently in our "pantry“  Dietary Concerns : we want to save preferences about our dietary concerns. For example perhaps we don't want to see recipes that contain peanuts because a family member is allergic.  Recipe Sharing/Browsing : we want to be able to share recipes with others, browse through recipes found online, search for different types of recipes, and be able to add some/all ingredients for a recipe to our shopping list.

6. Top Problem Creating a shopping list from recipe browsing:  Combines two of our top 4 problems to form the main goal we have in mind  We want to be able to plan meals by picking recipes, and then form a shopping list for the items we would need for those recipes

7. Top Problem - Reasoning Creating a shopping list from recipe browsing:  We chose this as our top problem because it is something that we would like to be able to do, that doesn't seem to exist.  Creating a shopping list and being able to browse recipes are two problems that are essential to meal planning, and being able to do both with one app would be ideal  It also would be more efficient, since you won't have to write down all the ingredients you need for each recipe - the app would do it for you.

8. Problem Analysis - Significance  Planning meals for a family can be very difficult and time consuming  Even more difficult knowing what ingredients are needed for those meals  Difficult to type each individual ingredient, would be nice to have an "add all" feature

9. Problem Analysis - Stakeholders Families, housemates, etc.  Anyone who wants to or has to cook their own meals, or cook for large groups  App streamlines planning, purchasing, cooking  Possible monetary incentives (coupon offers)

10. Problem Analysis - Stakeholders Stores, corporations  Potential to draw in business  (Customers + Revenue)  Financial incentive to support app  Have reason to partner if coupon offers are added later

11. Problem Analysis - Precedents Recipe Browsers  Apps with advanced recipe searching and filtering  Includes ingredients list, preparation instructions, favorites, meal randomization, & more  Despite all these features, they lack grocery list integration - have to save or write down each ingredient

12. Problem Analysis - Precedents Shopping Checklists  Essentially checklist / to-do list applications with slightly more features  Autocomplete / categorization of ingredients, price estimates, list syncing & sharing, barcode scanning, pantry list  Lacks integration with recipe browsers. Typing each ingredient is slow. No guidance when making list

13. Problem Analysis - Competition AnyList for iOS  Fairly new app. First to effectively integrate grocery lists and recipe browsing.  Making a list is easy - look up recipes for the week and simply "add all ingredients“ to your list  Acts as an recipe aggregator by parsing many different recipe websites instead of having its own recipe database

14. Problem Analysis - Competition AnyList for iOS (cont.)  We can improve on this by polishing features and understanding the customer  Pantry feature will eliminate unnecessary items in list  Better recipe discovery: filter based on preparation time, dietary restrictions, type of dish, price, etc.  Greater focus on meal planning – more than just individual recipes
