Context & Problem Statement

The "My Profile" section in the Dario Health App serves as a central hub for customizing the users health conditions, personal details, and account settings. Previously, clinical and account information was scattered across multiple locations, leading to confusion, lower engagement, and navigation inefficiencies. The challenge was to reorganize, streamline, and enhance usability while maintaining accessibility.


Goals

  • Improve navigation and organization of profile-related information.

  • Enhance user engagement by making key health insights more accessible.

  • Ensure seamless integration with existing clinical and account management features.

  • Implement event tracking to monitor user interactions and optimize workflows.

Business Goals

  • Increase user retention by streamlining the profile management experience.

  • Enhance engagement with health insights and self-management tools.

  • Support scalability for future feature additions, including oral medication tracking.

  • Ensure compliance with data privacy standards (e.g., HIPAA).

  • Decrease inbound calls for clarity and basic requirements

Target Audience

  • Primary Users: Adults aged 30–60 managing chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.

  • Secondary Users: Healthcare providers seeking a seamless experience for monitoring patient data.

Timeline

  • Research Phase: 2 weeks

  • Design & Prototyping: 4 weeks

  • Development & QA Testing: 6 weeks

  • Launch & Feedback Collection: 2 weeks

  • Developed low-fidelity wireframes to test information architecture.

  • Created interactive prototypes for usability testing.

  • Iterated based on feedback from stakeholders and end-users.


3. Prototyping & Testing

  • Built high-fidelity prototypes in Figma.

  • Conducted A/B testing to validate new navigation flows.

  • Integrated translation support for Spanish users.

4. Final UI Implementation

  • Enhanced visual hierarchy for better information clarity.

  • Implemented collapsible sections for an intuitive browsing experience.

  • Introduced real-time data tracking events for performance monitoring.

Challenges & Learnings

  • Balancing Simplicity & Functionality: Kept UI intuitive while ensuring rich health data accessibility.

  • Ensuring HIPAA Compliance: Worked closely with clinical and security teams to maintain data privacy.

  • Event Tracking Optimization: Refined event triggers to capture meaningful user interactions.


Post-Launch Feedback & Error Handling

Following the redesign launch, user feedback and error reports were analyzed to further refine the experience:

Key Issues Identified

  • OTP Validation Logic(UX UI Audit/QA): Users faced difficulties during phone/email verification as the system did not visually differentiate between valid and invalid OTPs. This was caused by missing color and error state handling in the validation logic (Dev level).

  • Menu Navigation Behavior(User feedback): Some users found the new side menu slightly disorienting at first due to a lack of guiding cues, stemming from incomplete implementation of onboarding flows.

  • Save/Cancel Buttons Implementation: Users struggled to locate the Save and Cancel buttons in edit sections because their placement and visibility were not adequately prioritized during development.

Improvements Implemented

  • Enhanced OTP Validation Feedback: Integrated color-coding in the validation logic—green for valid and red for invalid OTPs—along with real-time error messages for better user clarity.

  • Improved Onboarding Assistance: Added development-led tooltips and user prompts to help users adapt to the restructured side menu.

Business Impact & Measurable Results

Key Metrics Achieved

  • 📈 40% Improvement – Profile navigation efficiency increased, making it easier for users to find and update information.

  • 👥 30% Increase – User engagement with health insights grew significantly due to better accessibility and usability.

  • 📉 Reduced Drop-Off Rates – Users now interact more consistently with the My Profile section, improving retention and feature adoption.

  • 📊 Enhanced Data Tracking – Improved analytics and performance monitoring enable data-driven future optimizations.

  • Reduced inbound call's for clarification of data

Why This Works

  • User-Centric Approach: Redesigned based on real user feedback and behavior data.
  • Business-Driven Impact: Increased engagement, improved tracking, and streamlined profile management.

  • Future Scalability: Designed for future feature expansions, including oral medication integration.

Thoughts
