Iterations

This page outlines the iterative design and development processes in which we engaged in order to bring Antidote to the public. Prototypes and mocks went through iterations based on user and development team feedback while front and backend development were progressing. Once a working application was in place, we engaged in further changes based on user and group feedback.

Prototyping

All prototypes are created in Axure, including main pages and interactions in the system, both web and mobile versions.

Web prototype iterations

V1.0

Content includes:

  • home page
  • medication detail page(overview, reviews, alternatives)
  • sign up
  • personal medication tracking and management.
Created based on:
  • user interview insights

V2.0

Changes include:

  • home page: collect users' age, gender, insurance company upfront in order to provide customized search results.
  • medication detail page
  • overview: put the most important information including effectiveness, side effects and insurance accessible at first glance. Add tips section. Add the action to review this medication. Once user stayed certain time on this page, show review form to ask their experience.
  • reviews: put all individual reviews sort by how useful it's considered by other users. Allow users to thump up or thumb down for each review. Also ask user to put their reviews of this medication including effectiveness, side effects, if covered by their insurance, their insurance plan and comments.
  • alternatives: for each alternative of this medication, provide side effects, effectiveness chart and percentage of insurance covered.
deleted sign up/sign in and personal medication tracking due to privacy and security concerns.

Mock Iterations

While development began immediately based on prototypes, various iterations of mocks were created to complement and confirm development trajectory as well as achieve design cohesiveness. A document that discusses the iterations our mocks went through is linked here. Links:

Roadmap

Our minimum viable product (MVP) consisted of the completed user stories documented in Pivotal Tracker. These user stories were paired with feature tasks to track the development details associated with features and provide a checklist to verify completion of requirements. All features that did not meet the MVP were placed in the Pivotal Tracker icebox for incorporation into a product roadmap. The Pivotal Tracker roadmap and full history are available here for anyone who wishes to enhance Antidote moving forward.
