The boss of this dungeon

Owners who opened the app once a month, dreading it.

Designing for 6 a.m.

Café owners check their numbers standing up, before opening. We designed the home screen for that moment: three numbers and one suggestion, readable at arm’s length.

Less, then less again

The old app had 46 reports. The new one has 5, and a search box for the rest. Nobody has asked for the other 41 back.

We ran the pilot with nine cafés in Edinburgh and kept a shared notebook on every counter.
