Introduction
In 1995, World Wide Waiter started the first
ever-recorded online food ordering service,
leading the way to the convenience of bringing
meals to peoples homes. Back then, the internet
was in the nascent phase of its evolution but
still had the potential to change millions of
restaurants.

Fast forward to today, and app-based deliveries
have taken the food delivery industry by storm.
What started with a simple order takeaway service
has now been entirely changed to deal with the
ever-expanding demands of modern customers. As a
result, global market revenue is forecast to
reach US1.22 trillion in 2024.

Food Ordering App Features
Creating a ClusterTruck-inspired food delivery
app for a seamless delivery experience is not
enough. You need to build a digital ecosystem
around it and tie it all together. In other
words, a customer app, a restaurant app, a driver
app, and an admin panel together form a
successful food delivery business. Lets dive
into these apps and take a closer look at each.

Customer App
A simple and eye-catching UI/UX design creates a
pleasant customer experience. For the best
experience, the menu could focus on a specific
meal or a restaurant based on the user's order
history. In essence, the customer app should have
the following features
Registration and Login
Restaurant Search
Location Tracking
Provide your customers with a simple registration
and login process via biometric authentication,
social media, phone numbers, or Google. The more
login options you provide, the more users will
register there.
Your food delivery app should allow customers to
search for nearby restaurants depending on
geo-location. It would be wise to add various
filters, like nearest to you or heavy
discounts, to make the search process more
convenient.
Let customers track their orders on the map in
real time. This makes the app super intuitive and
can be developed with the help of the Google
Location API for Android OS and the Location
Framework API for iOS.

Customer App
Order Placement Payment
Push Notifications
Ratings and Reviews
Feedback helps you see the gaps in your service
and work towards its improvement. Therefore, a
simple comment box and a visually pleasing star
rating give the app a more professional look in
front of the customer. Moreover, you can also
include the option to provide a tip for the
delivery partner if you want.
A simplified checkout process decreases the
number of abandoned orders. Take the help of a
local payment gateway and add multiple payment
options to get the maximum number of order
requests. The payment screen should have various
options for cash, credit or debit cards, and an
in-app wallet.
Push notifications remind users about delivery
stages, from when the food order is accepted
until it has arrived on the doorstep. Such
statements also inform customers about discounts
or special offers at nearby restaurants.

Customer App
To build a user-friendly app only for
restaurants, you need to understand what
processes happen in it. The app will help
restaurants accept orders, get notified, and
manage menus. But it has the potential to do much
more than that, such as managing availability,
among others.
Furthermore, the restaurant must have complete
control to showcase the best of their menu and
images through the app. Push notifications for
all users, along with their business hours, are
some of the top options that you can find in an
app for restaurants. The key features of this
type of app are almost the same as those of the
user app
Menu Management
From changing images, descriptions, and prices to
adding new cuisines, the menu management option
allows the restaurant to showcase its brand
exclusively. Any changes in the menu, along with
the costs, automatically get reflected in their
revenue history report. With this freedom,
restaurants can implement new things and
introduce innovative food items to the general
public.
Order Management
Just like in a traditional setting in a five-star
restaurant, upcoming orders are prioritized as
per their delivery needs. In this online
approach, this option allows the restaurant to
accept or update the order request at their
convenience. This will be directly updated in the
user app so the customer knows about their order
ETA in real-time.
Ratings and Reviews
Like the user, the restaurant can review and rate
their experience after a successful delivery is
completed. At the end of the process, a review
option takes them to a small box where they can
choose the number of stars they like.

Delivery Driver App
The driver must have access to an app that is
fast and agile and gives them the freedom to see
their earnings without having to go to different
screens. Most of all, it should be equipped with
a map API that prioritizes changes in traffic,
road conditions, and even weather. You must have
the following features in your app to achieve all
this
Registration and Login
A fast sign-up process has better chances of
attracting more delivery drivers. Here, it is
essential to have all the details and documents
of the delivery partner. Still, there may be more
effective ways to get registrations. Instead, try
to limit the number of options in the sign-up
process and remove unnecessary buttons.
Navigation
A navigation system allows the driver to follow a
faster route through oncoming traffic by
improvising the directions as per the traffic
conditions in real time. Therefore, it is
essential to have a navigation API in place built
with the latest updates for both Android and iOS
platforms.
Order Details
Giving the driver all order-related information
is necessary, as it plays a central role in the
entire delivery process. From the food item to
the customer's address and restaurant to the mode
of delivery and payment, an informative screen
allows the user to check everything at once
before making the final payment.
Order History
Seeing the details of past deliveries in one
place allows the driver to know the trip amount.
The list includes the timing and location of
deliveries, along with the name of the restaurant
from which the food was picked up.

Admin Panel
This is the command center of your food delivery
business. All features here are integrated to
manage the data from the user, driver, and
restaurant app simultaneously. Lets dive into
must-have admin panel features.
Restaurant, Driver, and User Manager
This feature helps the business owner manage the
profiles of their customers, the drivers, and all
the places they have partnered with for food
delivery purposes. This feature lets every bit of
information be seen with a single click. For
instance, ratings and reviews of restaurants not
doing so well compared to others can be easily
filtered out.
Analytics
With this feature, you can track and rank the
most popular restaurants and sort them by profit,
number of orders received, and so on. Modern
analytics dashboards are known to have
intelligent KPIs and metrics that can be
downloaded into reports for better understanding.
Promo Codes and Coupons/Push Notification
Management
With a seamless discount, coupon strategy, and
intelligent notification management, your app can
rack up more new orders than ever. To do this, go
to the admin panel and find promo code management
to update the details and name of the coupons and
share them with a target audience using
geolocation.

Curating The Design Experience
For a seamless ClusterTruck-inspired food
delivery app experience, the design process
should be crafted to personalize the taste of the
user. The sole reason your customers are opening
your mobile app is because they are willing to
pay for the delivery charges that come with the
price of the meal for their convenience.
Therefore, the app should show results relevant
to the search a user has made in the food
delivery app. For instance, many users dont
remember the name of the place they ordered from
a month ago. Therefore, the option of past orders
allows them to reorder the same favorite dish
quickly and easily.

Ideation
Start from the home screen and separate it as per
the options that benefit the user in their food
search. Therefore, the starting point is a search
bar with a filter and favorites option, coupled
with information related to their order history.
A richer experience means understanding what the
customer seeks by giving accurate results using
the keywords in the search box.

Understanding all the basic and advanced features
of the app is essential for its proper
implementation. Again, the source code is
responsible for the app's performance,
scalability, and security. Therefore, organized
code development and thorough testing can
strengthen the scalability and security of the
source code before launching the business.
Implementation

Deployment
To launch the food delivery app, ensure the
marketing campaigns have created enough hype for
the product. Moreover, test and run the app on
different devices to prevent any glitches or bugs
from occurring in the first place. Do the same
for the restaurant, driver app, and admin panel.
You can even do small transactions to understand
the flow pattern before making your business live.

Conclusion
The design of modern food apps has been carefully
planned using innovative methods of thoughtful
and seamless user experience. With new
technological advances in the on-demand industry,
the app will take center stage. Take the help of
a white-label firm to develop a
ClusterTruck-inspired food delivery app model.
