Overview

Cocktail Party is a mobile app that allows you to search cocktail recipes. The database is large and has all types of drink variations. It also lets you save ingredients so that it can recommend recipes based on what you have in your library. The app is very useful for bartenders from career level to home use.

Here are some areas where I think there is the most room for improvement:

1. Carousel options don't function well

This is a great app but on entrance it can be a bit overwhelming. There is an opportunity to clean up the UI and elevate the usability of this page. The carousel is the first thing you see and the functionality should be better.

Recommendations

• To make this element more functional, I think putting the options into a container will let the user know these are clickable. Instead of changing pages on selection, these options should act the same as a filter and show appropriate drink options when selected.
• The carousel also has some options that are either redundant or don't house any information. These will be taken away to make the number of options smaller.

2. Drink recipes need a better save option.

When you find a recipe you enjoy, the save function is barely visible and you get access to it when you go into a recipe. You tend to either type it in search or scroll until you see it. Often times you may not remember the name of the drink so this creates a significant pain point.
