Summary
As part of a iOS App Design course, I designed One Health, an iOS application that brings together essential health-related features in a single, user-friendly App.

Context
Given the overwhelming number of scattered and inconsistent health apps on the market, I set out to create a more centralized and cohesive solution. The concept was to bundle key features into one place: a digital prescription service for easy medication orders, a personal health record to store essential medical data, a medication calendar with reminder functionality, and a doctor appointment scheduler to manage upcoming visits.

Research & Exploration
I began the project by designing wireframes to explore how key functions could be visualized and connected. These early sketches helped me think through the main views and interaction patterns. Based on these wireframes, I developed a sitemap to define the overall structure of the App. The sitemap clarified how users would navigate between sections and allowed me to identify concrete use cases to support the interface design.

Designing for Familiarity and Clarity
Throughout the project, I focused on aligning the concept with typical iOS conventions. I paid close attention to layout clarity, navigation logic, and visual consistency, ensuring the App felt intuitive and familiar to users of Apple’s ecosystem.
To enhance the emotional tone of the interface, I combined two typefaces: SF Pro for body text and Apple’s New York for headlines. This mix gave the App a warmer and more approachable feel. It was particularly important to me that the design speaks to older users and to people who are deeply engaged with their health. The refined typography aims to convey a sense of calm and trust, which are essential qualities in the context of a healthcare App.

Conclusion
One Health feels like a fully native iOS App, both in look and interaction. Through this project, I was able to deepen my understanding of how to structure complex healthcare tools in a clear and accessible way. I learned how small design decisions can have a significant impact on usability, especially when it comes to sensitive topics like personal health. Beyond the interface, the project also gave me valuable insights into the ethical and political dimensions of healthcare design. It made me more aware of the responsibility and impact designers carry when shaping digital experiences in such a personal and meaningful context.
