Swiggy has launched a new feature called 'Eatlists,' allowing users to create and share food recommendations directly within the app.

The feature aims to simplify finding and sharing meal suggestions by consolidating food discovery, saving, and sharing within Swiggy.

According to Swiggy, 58% of users struggle with meal indecision, and 68% rely on recommendations from friends.

'Eatlists' addresses this by providing a centralised platform for users to discover, save, and share their favorite dishes.

Rohit Kapoor, CEO of Food Marketplace at Swiggy, highlighted the communal aspect of food, stating, "Before social media and other digital channels, food was the original form of community building. Eatlists bring the best of both worlds: the ability to create and share your food identity while discovering new favorite dishes through thousands of Eatlists curated by fellow food lovers and experts."

Using Eatlists To start creating Eatlists, users can tap the bookmark icon next to their favorite dishes and save them under various lists with names like "Weekend Treats" or "Healthy Bites."

Once curated, these lists can be shared via social media apps like WhatsApp and Instagram. Users can also browse Eatlists created by others, such as "Late-night Cravings in Mumbai" or "Top Street Foods in Delhi," making meal choices more social and fun.

Swiggy's 'Eatlists' aims to make meal planning and discovery more enjoyable and community-driven.

Key features of eatlists:

Centralised favorites: Users can create themed lists of preferred dishes.

Easy sharing: Share Eatlists with others to help them discover new dishes and restaurants.

Continuous recommendations: Access lists created by other users for more food options.
