Genie is a blue collar service app which allows the user to find the right person for the job. They can connect with the vendor and can make a decision.
Problem & Solution 🤝
In other blue collar services you directly book a service, you don’t get any opportunity to customise your needs and set a budget, I solved this for people struggling with the current products.
Goals/Requirements: Adding some goals or requirements that helped get this project to the finish line.
• They need to make a customised plan requirements and can have workers approach them
• Security is a big concern
• Need a trustworthy community
Process 🛣
It is a new concept and it should deliver an hassle free service to the user, if user don’t get the desired results, they’ll never use it again.
I discovered people are used to similar features and to make them change their behaviour is a little tuff but can give them more freedom and power.
I firstly check out the existing apps in these sector and made a list of the features and then thought about what is missing and what users feel using the existing apps.
Results 🎁
Finally after lot of research, I reached to the conclusion and made screens for the following features
Post the custom requirements
Chat with worker
In chat gave access to user to accept / deny the worker
No personal details shared to the worker before getting the job
Showing status of job
The client loved most of the designs in one go🗣

Takeaways 📣
This was one of first projects, I learned to collaborate with the stakeholders, fellow designers and managers.
I would like to research a bit more than rushing to complete the project
