We explored numerous COVID-19 dashboards worldwide, using them as design benchmarks.
Initial benchmarks for EndCorona.
From our analysis of these benchmarks, we ideated potential feature requirements for the app. We also identified numerous strategies for presenting case number statistics, maps, graphs, and numerical data within the application. This exploration and analysis familiarized us with existing products and enabled us to formulate fundamental requirements and brainstorm enhancements implemented in the mobile app.
Building upon the issues outlined earlier and the recommendations provided by health experts, we ideated several app features detailed below.
Defined features of EndCorona.
We roughly ideated and visualized the app's design and achieved agreement within the team.
Initial wireframe of EndCorona.
There was a sudden change of requirements during the early phase of prototyping due to the tight development timeline faced by our engineers. This necessitated a prioritization to develop features with the most significant impact and feasibility within our constraints.
As a result, we adjusted the statistics feature and, consequently, the app's structure. We assumed the statistics feature had greater development challenges despite it not being the primary focus of our app. We opted only to display the case numbers on the homepage and replaced the previous position of this feature with a national hotline list page.
