Joe & The Juice is a global chain of upscale juice bars and coffee shops. We designed the mobile experience for iOS and Android to help streamline the ordering process for over 300 stores.
The new digital commerce and customer engagement platform features a vibrant visual identity with unique brand elements infused throughout the app.
Our team iterated on the app over a multi-year partnership to incorporate features supporting the loyalty program, pickup, delivery, and a seamless purchase flow.

The existing app design was outdated and needed a modern, cohesive look.
The user experience required better navigation and a more intuitive flow.
Additional features were necessary to improve customer engagement and satisfaction.
Ongoing design support was needed to keep the app aligned with the brand’s evolving needs.
Synergy Labs redesigned the app with these key improvements:
Fresh interface aligned with brand identity
Simplified navigation for ordering and loyalty
Enhanced loyalty program
Added real-time order tracking
Regular UI/UX updates
Close collaboration with internal tea
With time to expand on the app, we discovered ways to refine the presentation of the fresh products.
The work across our teams also helped Joe & The Juice sustain during the global pandemic by improving key flows and creating contactless solutions for order pickups.
While waiting for pickup or delivery, customers are presented with animations that show the current stage of their order.
Each illustration leverages a pleasant color palette and elevates what would typically be a boring experience.
To make Joe's extensive loyalty program more engaging, we created a vibrant 3D world that brings rewards to life. Each feature received special treatment:
Points tracking features playful 3D juice drops that accumulate and splash
Achievement badges are illustrated as rotating 3D medals with custom brand patterns
Reward tiers showcase animated 3D juice cups that fill up as customers progress
Special offers appear as floating 3D gift boxes with particle effects
Points tracking features playful 3D juice drops that accumulate and splash
Our achievement system features carefully crafted 3D icons:
First Purchase: A gleaming 3D golden cup with rising steam particles
Juice Master: Animated 3D fruits orbiting around a championship trophy
Coffee Connoisseur: A detailed 3D coffee bean wreath with metallic finish
Loyal Customer: Spinning 3D crown with embedded jewels representing visit milestones
Green Champion: 3D recycling symbol made from intertwined leaves and vines
These 3D elements create a cohesive visual system that connects Joe's brand imagery with the points-based rewards program, making every interaction more delightful and memorable.
The app has an unconventional magazine style while maintaining usability and allowing users to navigate without friction.
