Problem

Problem

During the COVID-19 lockdown, Southeast Asian consumers were faced with heightened concerns about safety, convenience and reliability when ordering food online. As a low-cost carrier facing sharp decline in travel, AirAsia pivoted to food delivery (amongst other ventures) by leveraging its resources and logistics, but the platform struggled to stand out in a market dominated by established players like GrabFood and Foodpanda.

Primary Challenge

Primary Challenge

Airasia Food falls short of expectations when it came to how users are able to navigate to select their choices. To address this, I conducted a competitive analysis of competing platforms to identify gaps in its offering and uncover opportunities that could enhance the airasia food experience.

Stakeholder Requirements & User Interviews

Stakeholder Requirements & User Interviews

Throughout the research phase, I connected with the marketing team, who introduced me to different stakeholders within AirAsia and to existing users of the app. These conversations gave me a deeper understanding of what AirAsia’s team envisioned for the platform. I also spoke with users who had tried the app but didn’t stick with it, helping me uncover why it fell short of their expectations.

CONCEPT EXPLORATIONS

CONCEPT EXPLORATIONS

From my research, the design strategies I tested in my wireframes focused on making navigation as smooth as possible. I mirrored familiar interfaces from other platforms like GrabFood and Foodpanda to reduce friction and create a seamless experience. I also tested these wireframes with a small internal focus group to understand the effectiveness of the my design strategies.

USER TESTING

USER TESTING

Once I was able to identify the most effective design variations, I created high-fidelity wireframes and tested them with a small external focus group who were familiar with the mobile app. This gave me valuable insights into how real users felt about the design, its usability, and its overall look, helping me see what really clicked with them.

USER TESTING: VARIATION C1

USER TESTING: VARIATION C1

During the focus group, participants noted that version C1 made it easier to navigate by giving clearer information on merchant ratings and delivery times. However, some found the promotion carousel a bit distracting and overwhelming, with too much happening at once. On the positive side, first-time users felt that scrolling through the app was a smoother experience overall.

USER TESTING: VARIATION C2

USER TESTING: VARIATION C2

Focus group participants found the carousel experience in version C2 much less intrusive than in C1, as it featured a single promotion rather than multiple ones at once. This was appreciated, especially since AirAsia tends to run many promotions simultaneously. The merchant cards remained consistent with version C1, providing all the expected information.

OUTCOME: IMPROVED STORE DISCOVERY & CHECKOUT

OUTCOME: IMPROVED STORE DISCOVERY & CHECKOUT

56% of merchants on AirAsia Food have reported difficulty in making their stores easily discoverable on the platform, despite lower commission rates. Similarly, 61% of end users expressed frustration with finding options, leading to significant drop-off. To address this, the homepage experience has been redesigned to highlight stores based on key selling points, including sorting by popularity and dietary preferences such as halal options, improving discovery for both merchants and customers.
