Medication application with information on birth control resources

There are many women who are not educated on safe birth control options and lack the knowledge of it’s impact on their health. During this 24 hour hackathon, my team and I wanted to implement this functionality using APIs, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and Figma.

The Problem

My teammate Lily designed the visual elements and prototype in Figma, while the rest of the team took on various development roles. Together, we spent time brainstorming and debugging as we built the mobile application, which ultimately won the prize for Best UX/UI Design.

The app was designed and developed to help women stay informed about their birth control options while also offering medication tracking to support both mental and physical health.

Software Used

Wireframes / Figma Prototype

Upon logging into their account, we wanted users to be greeted with daily affirmations and reminders for their medication or other scheduled trackers. The medication page offers options for selecting from displayed birth control methods or searching for additional medications. My team and I integrated APIs for both the affirmations and the “ME-ducation” sections of the app.

The tracking page allows users to schedule habits they want to organize, such as medication or water intake. Once added to the tracker, users receive notifications on the home page as well as on their device.

Developing

Upon opening the app, users are greeted with a motivational daily affirmation, along with reminders for any medications they’ve added.

From there, they can navigate to the medication page to explore various birth control options or search for medications that aren’t pre-displayed.

The final icon on the navigation bar leads to the task page, where users can manage their inputted medications and habits. This page provides timely notifications to remind users of medications or pending tasks that need to be completed by a certain time.
