Dating app for avocados

Swap it

The Concept

Swapocado is basically a dating app for avocados in your neighborhood.

You have a ripe avocado but no plans to eat it tonight? List it on Swapocado.

You desperately want avocado toast but only have a rock-hard one? Find a match nearby.

Mutual gain, zero waste.

It’s Tinder meets food sustainability, but way more niche.

What’s next

Realistically? Swapocado will never see the App Store.

But as a UX thought exercise, it was a fun deep dive into hyper-niche problem-solving.

What I learned:

  • Absurd problems can still be solved with solid UX principles.

  • There’s always a way to make mundane interactions engaging.

  • Food sustainability + tech is a genuinely interesting space (if anyone wants to fund Swapocado, call me).
