About the Project

A good design can save lives

The Clip Health project arose from the urgent need to contain the spread of COVID-19.
The initial idea of the project was to create a device for home use, however, while waiting for approval from the FDA, the possibility of using clip health as a diagnostic method for laboratories was raised.
The challenge multiplied, because now it was about making an app that could monitor multiple tests running at the same time. And we did it!

Design, Test, Design, Test, Des...

One of the main challenges in designing Clip Health was ensuring that the app was intuitive and easy to use, even for people who had never used a similar device before.
In order to test the app's usability, we conducted several rounds of user testing with a diverse group of participants. During these tests, we observed how users interacted with the app and collected feedback on what was working well and what could be improved. Based on this feedback, we made a number of updates to the app.

From 1 to 20

Initially Clip Health was a mobile app that allows users to easily run COVID tests individually. However, with the increasing demand for COVID testing, the app suddenly had to adapt to accommodate bulk testing. This meant that the app had to be able to handle up to 20 tests per session, as opposed to just one. One of the main challenges was revising the user flow to accommodate multiple tests at once.

Dynamic Components to tackle any situation

Due to the rapid expansion of the app's specifications, we needed to adapt its UI to be scalable within any possible situation. The App was initially designed with UI components that can be reused in various situations.

Design for hardware Integration

Integrating Clip Health's mobile App with the hardware device presented a number of challenges. One of the main challenges was establishing an easy way to connect the app and the hardware via Bluetooth technology. We also had to consider how to display and manage the test results within the app in a clear and concise way.To address these challenges, we conducted extensive testing and debugging to ensure that the connection was stable and reliable, for this we worked closely with the hardware team to understand the technical requirements and limitations of the device.

What I learned from Clip Health

This project was conclusive proof that good design can save lives. What began as a project for home use, finally became a product for use in laboratories that performs multiple tests at the same time in a rather complex way.
The biggest lesson I learned was that adaptation is the most important thing for a design to thrive.
