What if your fridge  could tell you exactly what to cook?

Bingeefy set out to build an AI-powered app that could turn whatever ingredients a user had into recipe recommendations. The app allowed users to scan items with their camera, select ingredients from a list, or call them out for the AI to recognise. Along side recipe suggestions, the platform also included a calorie tracker, ingredient marketplace, restaurant ordering options, community recipe sharing, and Meal Planning (Calender).

The vision was ambitious — combining five major features into one app — which meant balancing scope, usability, and design clarity. While I recommended a staged, beta-style release to allow features to be refined with real-time user data, the decision was made to launch all features together. This required a design that made everything accessible without overwhelming the user.

Ingredient Scanning & Selection  
Designed three ways for users to add ingredients — scanning with the camera, manual selection from an in-app list, and voice input via AI recognition — making the process flexible and accessible.

Navigation & Feature Access
With multiple high-value features, I used a dropdown menu for secondary options, while the bottom navigation highlighted the most-used tools like ingredient scanning, recipe suggestions, and meal tracker.

Recipe Recommendations 
Created recipe result screens that dynamically calculate total calories based on selected ingredients, with step-by-step instructions and integrated video guides for each dish.

Calorie Tracker  
Built a tracker that lets users set a daily calorie limit and receive notifications when they’re close to exceeding it. Calorie counts are automatically factored into all recipe recommendations.

Meal Planner & Calendar Integration
Designed a meal planning tool that allows users to schedule recipes by day and time, fully integrated with a calendar view for easy planning.

Community & Social Features  
Enabled users to join or create food groups, post progress articles, share recipes, and get notified when other members try their shared dishes — encouraging engagement and knowledge sharing.

The design was approved and prepared for development. While the product has not yet launched, the project provided valuable insight into designing for complex, multi-feature platforms. The experience reinforced the importance of aligning scope with a clear primary focus, while still delivering a design system ready to support future growth.
