Medipal — Case Study

UX/UI Design | User Research

2020 — 2021

A personal medication organization app concept in collaboration with designers Zainab Alavi, Maria Guna, Lian Sin, and myself. Exploring user-centred design methods and techniques, we developed an intuitive user experience utilizing comprehensive research.

Process

A four month group case study on developing a mobile solution to managing medicine. Alongside my team members, we conducted research, developed a visual system, developed prototypes, conducted user interviews and testing.

The process followed four main phases including: a PACT analysis, a system requirements chart, user personas, wireframing, moodboards, interviews, testing, prototyping, and iteration.

Keeping track of your medicine can be difficult. Many people find it tiring and overwhelming. MediPal aims to help by providing a digital solution that is convenient, organized, and easy to use.

The key features of MediPal include the ability to keep track of multiple medications and supplements, to set scheduled reminders, and to access and update medicine information.

Key Contribution:
The main feature I worked on was the Medicine Database feature. Creating wireframes and prototypes of all possible search methods, information display, and adding the results to a user’s virtual medicine cabinet.

Phase 1

The main goal of this phase was to outline what features were needed/valuable for our target audience, to lead us to create a solid solution to managing medicine.

Each member conducted two user interviews, for a total of eight unique answers to synthesize. We worked together on each of these tasks and distributed work evenly.

Phase 3 User Testing

During this phase we formulated a user testing plan, and conducted user tests. Using the results of these tests we then made iterations/revisions to increase the usability and accessibility of the app.
