Challenges & Solutions

01
Ensuring Restaurant Authenticity
Challenge

Since restaurants could be added by anyone, there was always a chance of fake or irrelevant listings making their way onto the platform, which could harm credibility and frustrate users. This risk was especially high because authenticity is the core value of a halal food app.

Ensuring Restaurant Authenticity
Solution

To solve this, a moderation workflow was built where every new restaurant submission goes through admin approval. In addition, users can report suspicious entries, ensuring only genuine halal restaurants remain visible and strengthening trust in the platform.

02
Balancing Information Accuracy & User Experience
Challenge

Keeping restaurant details like menus, hours, and locations up to date was difficult, and relying only on admins would have slowed things down while burdening the system. Outdated details could also disappoint users and reduce confidence.

Balancing Information Accuracy & User Experience
Solution

Halal Bites enabled both restaurants and community members to suggest updates, while admins had final oversight. This crowdsourced model kept the data fresh, accurate, and relevant while ensuring no single group was overburdened.

03
Driving Community Engagement
Challenge

Food discovery apps often see users drop off after initial searches, since once they find what they want, they have no reason to return, leading to weak retention. Without social interaction, the platform risked becoming just another directory.

Driving Community Engagement
Solution

To encourage repeat use, the app included social features such as likes, comments, bookmarks, and trending feeds. These created an ongoing conversation around halal food, turning casual users into an active community that continuously shared experiences.

04
Maintaining Platform Quality at Scale
Challenge

As more restaurants, reviews, and posts came in, there was a risk that moderation would become unmanageable, lowering the overall quality of the platform. At scale, unchecked content could damage user trust and brand reputation.
