Development and Launch of Floop Android App

** 项目概述 ** 2022年，Floop成功在iPhone App Store推出了一款开创性的移动的应用程序。Floop旨在跟踪食物的碳足迹，并帮助用户应对气候变化。为了确保我们能够接触到尽可能多的人，该项目旨在将Floop应用程序扩展到使用Android设备的智能手机用户。该项目旨在：* 使用Android特定的设计组件重新设计应用程序 * 使用Android特定的语言开发代码 * 将应用程序启动到Google Play以下载到Android设备 * 创建首个适用于Android的应用程序 ** 背景 * Floop应用程序利用技术跟踪膳食的碳足迹，为个人提供所需的信息，以做出对环境负责的决策。Floop是一个专注的团队，致力于创造一个更可持续的食品系统，并为更美好的未来而努力。Floop与其他食品相关应用程序（如健身追踪器和卡路里计数器）不同，它以用户友好的格式提供基于研究的成分气候数据。因此，我们相信Floop是同类应用中的第一款移动的应用。该应用允许用户计算他们膳食的碳足迹。它以易于理解的现实生活测量方式呈现食品的温室气体（CO2e）排放量，例如汽车行驶里程。用户还可以浏览和尝试促进可持续食品选择的食谱，同时跟踪他们一周内膳食的碳足迹。该应用程序通过应用程序内的广告位置和推广食谱将用户与以可持续发展为重点的企业联系起来。用户还可以浏览英国食品、饮料和生活方式品牌的优惠和信息。Floop在App Store的推出占据了智能手机市场的很大一部分，因为52%的英国智能手机用户拥有iPhone。推出Android兼容的应用程序将使英国另外47.4%的智能手机用户能够访问Floop，并发现如何做出更可持续的食物选择。关键目标 * 使用Android应用程序的Google Material组件更新Floop应用程序的设计 * 更新Android应用程序中使用的成分数据库 * 开发原生Android应用程序 * 与拥有Android设备的用户进行用户测试 * 将Android应用程序启动到Google Play，使Floop可供99.4%的智能手机用户使用

**Project Overview**In 2022 Floop successfully launched a groundbreaking mobile app to the App Store for iPhone. Floop is designed to track the carbon footprint of food and help users combat climate change.To ensure that we can reach as many people as possible, this project aims to expand the Floop app to smartphone owners using Android-powered devices. This project aims to:* Re-design the app using Android-specific design components* Develop the code in an Android-specific language* Launch the app to Google Play for download to Android devices* Create the first-of-its-kind app for Android**Background**The Floop app leverages technology to track the carbon footprint of meals, empowering individuals with the information they need to make environmentally responsible decisions. Our dedicated team is driven by a shared passion for creating a more sustainable food system and working towards a better future.Floop differs from other food-related apps, like fitness trackers and calorie counters, by providing research-based climate data about ingredients in a user-friendly format. As a result, we believe Floop to be the first mobile app of its kind.The app allows users to calculate the carbon footprint of their meals. It presents the greenhouse gas (CO2e) emissions of food items in easy-to-understand real-life measurements, such as miles driven in a car. Users can also browse and try recipes that promote sustainable food choices while tracking the carbon footprint of their meals over the week.The app connects users to sustainably-focused businesses via in-app ad placements and promoted recipes. Users can also browse offers and information from British food, drink and lifestyle brands.The launch of Floop to the App Store captured a significant portion of the smartphone market due to 52% of UK smartphone users having iPhones. Launching an Android-compatible app will enable an additional 47.4% of smartphone users in the UK to access Floop and discover how to make more sustainable food choices.**Key objectives*** Update designs for the Floop app using Google Material components for Android applications* Update the ingredient database for use in the Android app* Develop a native Android app* Carry out user testing with Android device-owning users* Launch Android app to Google Play, making Floop available to 99.4% of smartphone owners
