9 Most Popular Features of a Grocery Delivery App

1. Easy Registration

Imagine for a moment that you are one of the thousands of new users coming to the Grocery Ordering App. You download the application on someone’s recommendation and wait for the welcome screen. It says that you need to log in to move forward to place the grocery order. There is a need to log in and that too requires entering the email id manually. What would you do? Imagine that frustration. You can go for the easy single-click social media or other login services which can ease out the pain of logging in with manual keystrokes. Go for click login rather than keyboard login.

The easy registration process will minimize the number of users who uninstall the app as soon as they install it. Ease out the Registration process with easy UX/UI.

2. Easy Search with Smart Comparison

Again, imagine that you are one of the new users that have entered the app after registering and are ready to make a purchase. You know what you want to buy but no one will be willing to go through a list of 1000’s products to make the purchase. That is what users are here to remove from the buying process: a waiting period that requires some unwanted action. To avoid, users, abandoning the process of purchase, make your search smart and user friendly. You should design the app in such a way that the new users should easily search the products they are looking to buy and finish the process of purchase.

Reduce the waiting and number of clicks, and you would win the trust of the users and ultimately the competition.

3. Favourite, Popular & Recommended Categories

Let the users decide based on what the others have already decided. We tend to follow society. When the new users see that certain products are already popular, the users will purchase those products with ease and reduce the cumbersome process of searching and buying the products.

Social validity is a must for many, and these categories will benefit the users that are still unsure about what to buy. Place these categories on the home page. Also, use the ‘Recommended for You’ section that will give users a sense of personalization.

4. 1 Click Add to Cart

The user will find the products that need to be purchased. To complete that purchase the users need to place those products in the Cart and pay for those products. Imagine that the process of adding the products takes a load of time and that too with multiple clicks and information to be typed in. Will you go forward with such a cumbersome process? or will you go to the app that makes this add to cart process as easy as possible. Imagine the pain of users and design a UI/UX in such a way that the user can easily add the products to the cart or can save the products that they want to buy later. Go for 1 Click add to Cart Functionality.

Deals and Discounts are the things that the users are always looking for while shopping online. Provide some amazing deals and offers that they can’t refuse. You know what it means. Device loyalty programmes for customer retention.
