Apps we have built This far…
Must Have Features
These features need a little tweaking for an app to take the shape of a Grocery Shopping App.
At the Entry Point
-
Location Detection
With location detection, you would be able to provide accurate pricing with shipping and availability of stock to your app visitors.
-
Delivery Slot Availability
Based on location and the user profile type; the app presents the options for delivery slots availability.
Smart Shopping Cart
-
Shopping List
To be profitable, the grocery store needs repeat customers. The easiest way to do so is to let customers create a list and order again, and again.
-
Product Suggestions
Unlike automated product suggestions based on products added in the cart, the grocery app needs to present the options that would run out based on purchase history. If the user bought shampoo 3 months ago, it is time to prompt a repurchase option.
Backend Operations
-
Weight to Cost Variables
Oftentimes, the vegetables do not weigh as the weight broadcasted on the app. The app needs a backend calculation of refund or negative wallet balance for the variance in the weight.
-
Combo and Discounts
Every ecommerce platform has an in-built mechanism for creating combo offers that lead to discounts. The grocery app needs to level-up. The user is expected to buy products in bulk. Therefore, more agility in creation of combos on the fly - the better for group orders.
Unlike the standard promotion offers on the ecommerce for combo-based discounts and offers on the go - the grocery app requires to group product categories and based on the desired rules as per the choice of the backend admin to seamlessly create and fetch bulk orders.
