MEMINDER
A medication reminder app for a
connected older generation
MEMINDER 2
PROBLEM
STATEMENT
Users leading busy lives often need reminding
to take their medication, as missing medication
may lead to discomfort and risk of illness.
PROJECT GOAL
By creating a medication reminder application
for the busy user, we will achieve less missed
medications. Which will help to reduce
discomfort and chance of illness.

5.5 MILLION
BABY BOOMERS
40%Take over
FIVEmedication
60%Own a
Smartphone
TARGET AUDIENCE
People between the age of 52 and 70 or the “Baby
Boomers” who take multiple medications over a 24
hour period.
Medication
Baby Boomers enjoy better health than previous generations.
Growing older comes with greater chance of disability and
co-morbidity. In a survey of Australians aged over 50, 40% of
participants took five or more medications in a 24 hour period.
Older people experience a disproportionate number of medicine-
related adverse events, the rate of adverse events in older people
is about 10% more than expected. Reducing medicine-related
morbidity and mortality represents both a challenge and an
opportunity to achieve quality use of medicines and improve quality
of life in older people.
Technology
Baby Boomers have a positive outlook on technology and are willing
to embrace new technologies and learn new ways of doing things.
As of 2015, 60% of Boomers own a Smartphone
MEMINDER 5
USER INTERVIEWS
I was able to interview four people in the Baby
Boomer demographic. One of the major takeaways
from my interviews was that this cohort are not
adverse to using technology as is generally . Other
key points were;
Three out of the four interviewees own and use smartphone to
access information and apps.
Information of adverse reactions should be more readily available.
Forget medication usually during the day, medication is part of
their routine in the mornings.
Use work arounds such as to-do apps for reminders to take
medication.
Frustrations with some medication web pages and pdfs as the can
be purely for sales and promotion.

needs to be added manually Form,
Strength, Notes, Person. Also has pill
reminder and refill reminder on same
form as drug input. Reminders - Takes user
to the medication input page. Refills - Also
takes the user to the medication input
page
Nice qualities Auto filling of dosage and appearance is
a very handy feature to avoid inputting
the incorrect data. Notifications to friends
or family is interesting, especially if the
adverse effects to missing medication are
dire. Branding is quiet strong and the pill
box interface is an interesting concept.
Overall the app is really easy to use and
icons help with identifying tasks.
Alerts for when medication need to be
taken. No internet connection needed.
Alerts can be synced with the apple watch.
Navigation is straight forward and all tasks
are presented in the home screen.
Interface is easy to use and self
explanatory. Branding is clean and simple
Could improve Medications input could be improved,
information needs to be entered manually.
Side effects only found in video about the
medication not easily available elsewhere
in app. American based requires RX
number, could be more applicable to
Australian user base.
Data input all manual. No information
provided for medications. No reminders
for refills. Picture of medication needs
to be uploaded from photo album on
phone. Little to no reporting feature
available. No user profile. Interface is
weak and unappealing. Navigation seems
unresponsive at times.
Adding medication not very intuitive.
Leaves plenty of room for error. User
profiles appear to be a bit useless. Very
little explanation on what each of the
screens are for.
If screen locks input is lost and sent back
to home screen when opening the app
again. No auto save function for input
of medication. App is pretty simple and
doesn’t record much other information.
Other notes Overall app seems quite easy to use, some
features are hidden behind a hamburger
that I feel could be included in the
navigation at the bottom of the screen.
Home screen is the “Pill Box” which
features a circle divided in to quarters for
Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night and
provides the user with a way to check off if
the medication has been taken or not.
Extended version available for $1.50 on
the app store. Ads in app. Made for an
American market. RX numbers not really
applicable for an Australian audience
Pro upgrade available for $6 in app. Only
feature advertised is the removal of
banner ads. App icon simple and a little
childish.
Companion for the drugs.com app. I feel
it would be much stronger if the two apps
were combined so that there was more
information or extra features for the
pill reminder app as it seems a bit of a
nuisance to close down one app just to
open up the other.

RESEARCH
TAKEAWAYS
Based on my initial research it became clear that the fol-
lowing points needed to be addressed in the design of
this product.
Alerts for possible reactions with medications already being taken.
Helpful for the on-boarding of new medications and help organise 		
information.
Make entering information in to the app easy and reduce false 			
inputs.
Centralised location for information on medications being taken.
Tailor the experience towards an Australian audience.

he forgets his medication for two days and if he misses more he is at a
high risk of stroke.
Frustrations
The information about the medication he finds on Google is
promotional and not about side effects and medication interactions. He
is worried about how medications he is prescribed will react with his
current medications.

FEATURE
PRIORITIZATION
These features will
contribute to the MVP
MEMINDER 13
MVP
Based on my research these features will be needed for
the MVP to be competitive in the market and to address
the users needs.
Medication reminders
Would be the key feature as several of the users interviewed stated they
would forget to take medication during the day on a regular basis. Some
of the participants said they used workarounds such as to-do apps as a
reminder for taking their medication. This was a great justification for the
need of this product.
As you type search suggestions
I believe the would be a must to reduce error when the user is adding
their medication.
Bar code scanner
A scanner of the medication bar code would also be useful to reduce
input error. None of the direct competition use this feature and it would
be an excellent point of difference.
Alerts for reactions between medications
During my user interviews many participants stated that interactions
between medication was a huge worry. This feature would address that
issue.

PAPER
PROTOTYPE
In the testing of my paper
prototype I realised
a need to make the
navigation clearer and
to make better choices in
icons.
The choice of icon became
confusing for users when adding
a new medication, with the bar
code scanner not being very
clear.
The navigation for the home
screen was a little unclear at the
time. This was later informed by
the card sort activity that I ran.
MEMINDER
I was able to conduct the card sorting
activity on six participants, I realised
the following during the testing.
The categories created by the participants were
as expected, except for one of the participants
who established action based categories for
their sort.
Apart from that one participant, the majority of
those studied created very similar categories
with slight variations in name and cards per
category.
Out of the six participants
Two sorted their cards into 3 categories
Two created 4 categories
Two created 5 categories

MEMINDER 20
USER TESTING
During my user testing I observed the following key
points
The appearance screen during the adding of a new medication
was a little unclear and based on feed back decided that it would
be best to remove it from the MVP.
Options in the medication conflict alert were unclear and I chose
to add a third button to give the user an option of setting the
reminder for a later time.
The icons need to be refined further, as discussed with the users
they created some confusion. They do not necessarily help to
define a clear message.
Typeface in the information section was a little small for some
users, I decided to increase the size in the next iteration
Scanning the bar code was used 50% of the time.
Axure was used for the initial prototype, I found the interactions
to be a slow and the users requested feedback from their
interactions with the interface. For this reason I chose to use
Adobe XD for the next round of iteration.

Meminder - My UX Process

  • 1. MEMINDER 1 MEMINDER A medication reminder app for a connected older generation
  • 2. MEMINDER 2 PROBLEM STATEMENT Users leading busy lives often need reminding to take their medication, as missing medication may lead to discomfort and risk of illness. PROJECT GOAL By creating a medication reminder application for the busy user, we will achieve less missed medications. Which will help to reduce discomfort and chance of illness. MEMINDER
  • 4. MEMINDER 4 5.5 MILLION BABY BOOMERS 40%Take over FIVEmedication 60%Own a Smartphone TARGET AUDIENCE People between the age of 52 and 70 or the “Baby Boomers” who take multiple medications over a 24 hour period. Medication Baby Boomers enjoy better health than previous generations. Growing older comes with greater chance of disability and co-morbidity. In a survey of Australians aged over 50, 40% of participants took five or more medications in a 24 hour period. Older people experience a disproportionate number of medicine- related adverse events, the rate of adverse events in older people is about 10% more than expected. Reducing medicine-related morbidity and mortality represents both a challenge and an opportunity to achieve quality use of medicines and improve quality of life in older people. Technology Baby Boomers have a positive outlook on technology and are willing to embrace new technologies and learn new ways of doing things. As of 2015, 60% of Boomers own a Smartphone
  • 5. MEMINDER 5 USER INTERVIEWS I was able to interview four people in the Baby Boomer demographic. One of the major takeaways from my interviews was that this cohort are not adverse to using technology as is generally . Other key points were; Three out of the four interviewees own and use smartphone to access information and apps. Information of adverse reactions should be more readily available. Forget medication usually during the day, medication is part of their routine in the mornings. Use work arounds such as to-do apps for reminders to take medication. Frustrations with some medication web pages and pdfs as the can be purely for sales and promotion.

Refills - Also takes the user to the medication input page Nice qualities Auto filling of dosage and appearance is a very handy feature to avoid inputting the incorrect data. Notifications to friends or family is interesting, especially if the adverse effects to missing medication are dire. Branding is quiet strong and the pill box interface is an interesting concept. Overall the app is really easy to use and icons help with identifying tasks. Alerts for when medication need to be taken. No internet connection needed. Alerts can be synced with the apple watch. Navigation is straight forward and all tasks are presented in the home screen. Interface is easy to use and self explanatory. Branding is clean and simple Could improve Medications input could be improved, information needs to be entered manually. Side effects only found in video about the medication not easily available elsewhere in app. American based requires RX number, could be more applicable to Australian user base. Data input all manual. No information provided for medications. No reminders for refills. Picture of medication needs to be uploaded from photo album on phone. Little to no reporting feature available. No user profile. Interface is weak and unappealing. Navigation seems unresponsive at times. Adding medication not very intuitive. Leaves plenty of room for error. User profiles appear to be a bit useless. Very little explanation on what each of the screens are for. If screen locks input is lost and sent back to home screen when opening the app again. No auto save function for input of medication. App is pretty simple and doesn’t record much other information. Other notes Overall app seems quite easy to use, some features are hidden behind a hamburger that I feel could be included in the navigation at the bottom of the screen. Home screen is the “Pill Box” which features a circle divided in to quarters for Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night and provides the user with a way to check off if the medication has been taken or not. Extended version available for $1.50 on the app store. Ads in app. Made for an American market. RX numbers not really applicable for an Australian audience Pro upgrade available for $6 in app. Only feature advertised is the removal of banner ads. App icon simple and a little childish. Companion for the drugs.com app. I feel it would be much stronger if the two apps were combined so that there was more information or extra features for the pill reminder app as it seems a bit of a nuisance to close down one app just to open up the other.
  • 8. MEMINDER 8 RESEARCH TAKEAWAYS Based on my initial research it became clear that the fol- lowing points needed to be addressed in the design of this product. Alerts for possible reactions with medications already being taken. Helpful for the on-boarding of new medications and help organise information. Make entering information in to the app easy and reduce false inputs. Centralised location for information on medications being taken. Tailor the experience towards an Australian audience.

  • 13. MEMINDER 13 MVP Based on my research these features will be needed for the MVP to be competitive in the market and to address the users needs. Medication reminders Would be the key feature as several of the users interviewed stated they would forget to take medication during the day on a regular basis. Some of the participants said they used workarounds such as to-do apps as a reminder for taking their medication. This was a great justification for the need of this product. As you type search suggestions I believe the would be a must to reduce error when the user is adding their medication. Bar code scanner A scanner of the medication bar code would also be useful to reduce input error. None of the direct competition use this feature and it would be an excellent point of difference. Alerts for reactions between medications During my user interviews many participants stated that interactions between medication was a huge worry. This feature would address that issue. Meminder
  • 15. 15MEMINDER PAPER PROTOTYPE In the testing of my paper prototype I realised a need to make the navigation clearer and to make better choices in icons. The choice of icon became confusing for users when adding a new medication, with the bar code scanner not being very clear. The navigation for the home screen was a little unclear at the time. This was later informed by the card sort activity that I ran.
  • 16. MEMINDER I was able to conduct the card sorting activity on six participants, I realised the following during the testing. The categories created by the participants were as expected, except for one of the participants who established action based categories for their sort. Apart from that one participant, the majority of those studied created very similar categories with slight variations in name and cards per category. Out of the six participants Two sorted their cards into 3 categories Two created 4 categories Two created 5 categories CARD SORT 16

User opens app and clicks on medications Clicks view medications Chooses medication from list of added medications Selects important information option Clicks side effects Now able to read all the information regarding side effects
  • 20. MEMINDER 20 USER TESTING During my user testing I observed the following key points The appearance screen during the adding of a new medication was a little unclear and based on feed back decided that it would be best to remove it from the MVP. Options in the medication conflict alert were unclear and I chose to add a third button to give the user an option of setting the reminder for a later time. The icons need to be refined further, as discussed with the users they created some confusion. They do not necessarily help to define a clear message. Typeface in the information section was a little small for some users, I decided to increase the size in the next iteration Scanning the bar code was used 50% of the time. Axure was used for the initial prototype, I found the interactions to be a slow and the users requested feedback from their interactions with the interface. For this reason I chose to use Adobe XD for the next round of iteration.
