How can you build a Quick Delivery app like
Blinkit?

• Step 1 Discover and Plan Phase
• First, you will need to identify a market for
  your app. What type of products or services do
  you want to offer? What needs does this market
  have that are not being met by existing
  businesses? What are other businesses in this
  space doing well? This research will be crucial
  as you begin to build your own app.
• 2) Next, you will need to create a business model
  for your app. How will you make money? There are
  a few different options here, but choosing one
  that will be sustainable long-term is important.
• 3) Find the right partner Creating an on-demand
  delivery app is a complex and expensive process.
  It would be best to find the right partner to
  help you with the app development. They should
  have experience in developing similar apps and be
  able to provide you with a competitive price.

Step 2 Choose the right platform The first and
most important factor is choosing the right
platform. You can either develop a native app or
a hybrid app. Each has its own advantages and
disadvantages, so its important to evaluate
which one would be best for your business. Native
apps are generally developed for one platform,
such as iOS or Android. On the other hand,
cross-platform apps are developed using HTML,
CSS, and JavaScript and can be used on multiple
platforms. Native app development is generally
more expensive than platform-independent but
delivers apps with better performance.
Cross-platform app development, on average, is
more cost-effective but is slightly slower than
the former.

Step 3 Features List

• Here are a few things to consider
• A user-friendly interface The apps interface
  should be such that even first-time users can
  understand and use it without difficulty.
• Simple Registration Simplify the registration
  process, make it quick and easy for users to sign
  up for your app, and use clear and concise
  language avoid jargon or technical terms.
• Use high-quality images to make your app more
  visually appealing and easy to navigate.
• Use an intuitive design your app should be easy
  to use, with a clear and straightforward design.

• GPS Tracking GPS tracking is one of the
  essential features of any delivery app. It allows
  customers to track the location of their order in
  real-time and gives them an estimated arrival
  time. It also allows drivers to see where they
  need to go next and helps dispatchers track all
  the orders being delivered.
• Order management The order management system is
  the heart of any delivery app. It needs to track
  all the orders being placed, assign them to
  drivers, and keep track of their status.
• Payment gateway integration This would allow
  users to pay for their orders online or through
  the app using a variety of payment methods such
  as credit/debit cards, net banking, and e-wallets.

8

• Real-time order tracking Customers should be
  able to track their order in real-time so they
  can see how close it is to being delivered.
• Push notifications Push notifications helps
  notify customers about important updates of their
  order, such as when it has been picked up, is out
  for delivery, or has been delivered. You can also
  use them to promote special offers or discounts.
• Multi-language support The app should be
  available in multiple languages so people can use
  it in the language they are more comfortable
  with.
• Compatibility The app should be compatible with
  all devices so that as many people can use it as
  possible.  
• In-app Chat The app should have an in-built chat
  feature so that users can communicate with the
  delivery executive in case of any issue

9

• Location-based tracking This would allow users
  to see nearby drivers and track their progress as
  they make their way to the users location.
• Rating and review system This would give users
  the ability to rate and review
• Social media integration By allowing customers
  to share their experience with your app on social
  media, you can reach a wider audience and
  generate more word-of-mouth marketing.
• Data analytics is critical in how on-demand
  grocery delivery apps work, from marketing
  outreach to app personalization, supply chain
  management, customer service, and reporting to
  insights.

Step 4 Design Phase (App interface design, U/X
design, Database design) The design of your app
is fundamental as it will be one of the first
things potential customers see. You need to
ensure that the design is professional and easy
to navigate. This means having a clean and
intuitive user interface as well as clear and
concise instructions on how to use the app.
Decide on your apps overall look and feel,
including your apps color scheme, font, and
layout. It would be best if you considered hiring
a team of designers with experience in creating
mobile app designs. Step 5 Create a
prototype Once you have the design sorted, the
next step is to create a prototype. This will
help you get an idea of how the app will look and
feel. It will also help you test out the features
you want to include in the app. This will help
you get feedback from potential users and ensure
the app is feasible.

• Step 6 Development Phase
• After you have created a prototype, the next step
  is to start App Development. This is where you
  will need to code the app and ensure it works
  properly. Heres a quick overview of the
  development process  
• Develop the front end
• Develop the back end
• App architecture

Step 7 Testing Once the app is built, it needs
to be tested thoroughly before launch to ensure
there are no bugs or errors. This is important as
it will allow you to iron out any bugs or
glitches that may be present in the app. You can
do this by using a simulator or testing it on a
real device.

Step 8 Launch the app After your app is tested
and ready to go, you need to launch it on the App
Store and Google Play Store. This is where people
will be able to download and use your app. Step
9 Promote the app Youll need to promote your
app to create awareness. You will need to create
a strong marketing strategy to get people to use
your app. This can be done through marketing and
PR campaigns, social media, paid ads, etc. Step
10 Analyze Data Once your app is up and running,
tracking how people are using it and checking the
conversion rates is important. This will help you
improve your app over time. Finally, you will
need to continue to support and update your app.
This means ensuring that bugs are fixed, and new
features are added regularly.
