START Hack 2021 is a event hosted by students of the University of St. Gallen. This 36-hour Hackathon provided a lot of opportunities to learn about new stuff.
Our Team consisted of 4 members:
Helsana provided a cool challenge for our team. The topic was Make Switzerland fitter.
You can see the case pitch on the following repository.
We tried to identify the main problems and thought about how to display them easy for a user.
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Multiple Apps | One App for everything |
| Complex Design | Simple design for every user |
| Complex data | Make data uniform and easy to use |
| Motivation | Motivate the user with positive suggestions |
| Motivation | Motivate the user by allowing him to challenge friends |
| Data protection | Share a personalized Avatar with levels instead of a general health-overview |
Helsana also stated, that they want a recommendation-system which suggest the user to do certain things based on data. This is one of the main reason we chose to design one app for everything, because the recommendation-system would benefit from more data. That means that the app can suggest drinking more water if it finds a correlation to medical issues like headaches.
| Home Screen | Medicine Card |

As you can already clearly see the home screen is simple and not overloaded. Each card color represents a different state of health for a specific category. The grey cards are an exception, because they only represent relevant information to the user and are not scored.
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Green | Healthy |
| Yellow | Could be improved / Okay |
| Red | In bad condition |
| Grey | Information |
Each health-screen is similiar to every other health-screen. The main reason for this is to simplify the ui and learning process for the user. A suggestions card will tell the user about his current state of health in this section. Most of the time it will be used to suggest solutions to given problems in a specific health section, but if the the user is already on a healthy level it will still suggest cool things to try out. The recommendation-system would suggest a healthy user a new recipe to try out. This is just an example for a suggestion. Each screen will suggest different things.
