Features of laundry pp

Let’s discuss the key features of an app for online laundry service and divide them into three basic blocks.

Features focused on customers!

Check-in – To start using the laundry marketplace app, a customer has to sign up and create his or her personal account. The easiest way to sign up is through social networks.

Personal profile – Now the user fills in the created personal account (aka profile) with information on himself: full name, contacts, profile photo, etc. If registration was performed through social networks, all this data can be obtained from the user’s profile on FB, Instagram, etc.

Search with filters – Okay, a person has registered in your mobile laundry service app and now wants to use it to its destination. Surely, he opens the program and resorts to a search mechanism, using filters to specify the parameters of the ideal laundry. A possible list of filters could include:

• price range,
• type of service (say, some accouterment items require a special approach during dry cleaning);
• location:
• Institution rating.

View information on the laundry- The user has found what he needed and wants to know details about a particular

• laundry, such as;
• contact details;
• working hours,
• location on the map:
• specialization;
• price policy;
• loyalty programs.

Placing an order – The prospective client studied the list of offered cleaning and laundry services and chose what seemed the best option; now he’d like to move on to the next stage, right? So offer him the opportunity to place an order and perform all possible operations with it, such as:

• pre-ordering:
• confirmation of order,
• change of order details,
• order cancellation

Favorites section. If the user is satisfied with the cooperation with a particular laundry, he can add it to his favorites

so that in the future he’ll be able to order its services in a few taps

Courier selection – Do you know why an on-demand app for laundry service and cleaning is so good? Because it provides you with the opportunity to get the job done while staying at home. A courier comes, picks up your clothes, and delivers them to the dry-cleaning company (and then brings them back cleaned). Therefore, your application should have a courier selection feature to help organize all this:

• when ordering a courier service, the user should be able to specify a particular time and date of picking up and dropping off and leave a comment regarding delivery (which may contain the address data and the phone number of the person to be contacted);
• It’ll also be great if the user can track the movement of the driver (courier) with his order online.

Monitoring the order status –  Okay, the user orders the required services without leaving his home. But it’s not enough In addition, he must be able to monitor the progress of the work (remotely, of course!). The order status will change depending on the stage of dry cleaning of his clothes.

Cost calculation –  Also, the functionality should offer the ability to calculate the indicative price of cleaning and laundry services. The cost factor can be influenced by such things as the number of items of accouterment, the type of clothing and fabric, and so on. With this option, the user has a chance to determine in advance how much moneyhe’ll have to pay to get the work done.

Order payment – If you decide to build an on-demand app for laundry service, be sure to add the payment feature.

Functionalities of laundry app

• Laundry representatives should also register their establishment in the application and provide basic company data. Thus, their clients will be able to find out in advance whether it’s worth ordering services from them.
• View customer data. The mobile laundry service application should allow dry-cleaning workers to view the details of the potential customer whose order they’re going to accept.
• Client database. Surely, every laundry company, which uses your application as a customer search platform, graduallyforms its own customer base with all the necessary contact information.
• Work with an order. Simply put, laundry workers must be able to accept and cancel an order, view its details, updateits status, and calculate the cost. The more order management options, the better.
• Push notifications. Naturally, features of laundry delivery apps must include notifications to inform dry cleaningrepresentatives about important news (application updates, the appearance of an interesting order, etc.).
• Acceptance of payment, and it is desirable to provide several options to provide money (cash, bank transfer, credit card, bonus, prepayment, etc.).
• Loyalty programs. Also, online laundry services are good for organizing flexible loyalty systems (personalized discounts, cumulative bonuses needed to reward loyal customers, sales and promotions, and so on).
• Chat, an important feature, the value of which we’ve described above, in the subsection dedicated to laundry customers.
