Dairy Delivery App

A subscription-first delivery app for people who just want milk on their doorstep every Tuesday without thinking about it.

The problem

Running out of milk isn't
a big problem.
But it's a recurring one.

Households don't forget to want dairy. They forget to manage the logistics. The opportunity: a subscription model with enough friction removed that it just works in the background.

01

Inconsistent delivery

No reliable windows — users couldn't plan around it

02

Too much management

Modifying recurring orders required too many steps

03

No premium signal

Generic apps don't communicate quality or provenance

Who I designed for

Two people.
Completely different needs.

Persona 01

Sarah K., 34 — Toronto

Busy parent, two kids, works full-time

"I just want to stop thinking about whether we have milk."

  • Set-and-forget scheduling — doesn't want to manage it
  • Easy skip for vacations without cancelling
  • Clear window so she knows when to be home

Persona 02

Marcus R., 29 — Vancouver

Food-conscious, cooks from scratch

"I want to know where this came from and feel good buying it."

  • Farm origin and producer stories
  • Curated selection — not a 500-item catalogue
  • Community around conscious food choices

Journey mapping

The delivery moment is magic.
Everything before it is friction.

Mapping the emotional journey made the design targets obvious — the anxiety between order and delivery was the real problem, and it wasn't in the original brief.

Phase
What they do
How they feel
Discovery
Hears about DairyDrop, downloads the app
Curious, a bit skeptical
Sign up
Creates account, browses product selection
Pleasantly surprised
First order
Sets up subscription and preferences
Mild friction
Waiting
Waits for delivery, no communication
Anxious — where is it?
Delivery ✦
Fresh products arrive at the door
Delighted
Ongoing
Manages subscription week to week
Satisfied but passive

"The delivery moment is the whole product. Every screen before it exists to reduce friction between sign-up and that first doorstep drop."
