Delivery App Photo Checklist

A restaurant checklist for preparing delivery app photos before upload, review, and menu refreshes.

Answer first

A delivery app photo checklist confirms that a dish image is clear at thumbnail size, platform-safe in its crop, honest about the portion, and free of text overlays or confusing props.

Checklist

Main item visible without needing to zoom
No menu text, badges, or discount overlays inside the photo
Container or plate does not hide the food
Square or landscape crop prepared according to the target platform
Image checked after compression, not only in the editor

Local and delivery context

For DoorDash and Uber Eats pages in large US cities, assume the photo will be scanned quickly next to many similar dishes; contrast and recognizable ingredients matter more than props.

FAQ

Can the same photo work for every delivery app?

Sometimes, but prepare channel-specific crops. A square crop, a landscape crop, and a web crop prevent the main dish from being cut off.
