| Summary: | Allergies are now increasingly common, due to public awareness and lifestyle changes. Although antibody tests and skin pricks can detect allergies, their accuracy is not always 100%, causing some cases of false negatives. Observing the reactions caused by food is an alternative approach, but people often forget the food they consume, especially if the allergic reaction is indirect. Therefore, tools are needed to record foods and reactions, allowing traceability to undetected allergy triggers. This study is applied research that aims to develop a prototype application for recording daily food and tracking the history of eating activities based on the allergy symptoms entered. The software development method used is the Agile method with the Scrum framework. The Scrum framework is used considering that the development of this application requires speed in its provision, and is susceptible to change, so flexibility in development is an absolute must. The software testing was conducted by User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure it meets the user’s needs and requirements. The UAT results are ease of use 3.8, functionality 3.99, user interface (UI) design 3.8, utility 4, and support and help 4. UAT results indicate that the ease of use and UI design have the worst scores and need to be improved, while the utility and support have the best results. |
