Design Challenges

Problem Statement
Keeping track of various doctors, prescriptions, and visits while managing a chronic condition can be challenging. When in pain or uncomfortable, patients frequently find it difficult to remember and explain their medical history. Additionally, access to this information must be available simultaneously for caregivers.  The challenge was designing an app that would enable quick and secure access to this information on demand.

Discovering and Designing for the User
Extensive research was done in order to fully understand my users. I was able to identify the distinct pain areas and design requirements of patients with chronic illnesses through in-depth interviews with them, their caretakers, and several doctors. I made sure the software we developed was suited to their unique demands by utilizing user-centered design methodologies.  Through this method, I was able to create a system that was simple to use and flexible enough to handle the numerous details of medical facilities all around the world. In spite of the project's frantic speed, I remained committed to adhering to UX best practices throughout the discovery and design phases, enabling me to produce an app that genuinely fulfills user demands.

Delivering an Impressive App
The needs and preferences of the user served as the starting point for the design process. I used HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript to develop a hybrid app, then Cordova to compile it in a native wrapper. The development environment for building a fully functional app was provided by Xcode. Utilizing information from interviews and user reviews, several version releases were tested. The basic functionality stayed the same, but I executed a lot of small adjustments to the app's performance, power, and usability. The app's success in satisfying user needs was demonstrated by the fact that it was made accessible on the Apple App Store and received over 500 downloads.
