NOWAITING – Smart Reservation & Live ETA

Job ID: 40571300

Budget: ₹37,500 – ₹75,000 INR

# NOWAITING – Complete User App Flow (How the App Works)

**Concept:**
NOWAITING lets travelers pre-order food and reserve a table based on their live journey. Instead of waiting after reaching the restaurant, food is prepared according to the user's ETA and served almost immediately after arrival.
