Product to evaluate
Define which product should be evaluated in terms of
- name of the product: Cookbook App https://thecookbookapp.com/
- purpose of the product / intended use: Organisation of cooking recipes
- typical users: Somebody who likes to cook and be supported by technical gadgets
- usage context: Cooking, saving/remembering Recipes
Selected heuristics
draft a list of heuristics for the evaluation here
- Is it intuitive
- Aesthetic and Minimalist Design
- User Control and Freedom

- Match between System and the Real World
Findings
