Project Description

Encore Wellness is a comprehensive platform dedicated to the well-being of seniors, delivering a range of online and on-demand health and wellness programs tailored specifically for the aging population.

The app empowers seniors to enroll in a variety of fitness offerings, including strength, balance, stability, dance, and flexibility exercises, as well as mind exercises such as meditation, yoga, tai chi, and memory enhancement. Live classes seamlessly integrate into a personalized schedule, while on-demand activities offer more time flexibility. The app diligently monitors weekly streaks, offering the chance to earn badges, providing older adults with the motivation to persist and excel in their wellness endeavors. 

Furthermore, the app features an easy-to-use and approachable UI/UX designed specifically for seniors, complemented by straightforward tutorial videos to ensure ease of navigation and participation in online classes.

About The Problem

Loneliness is a prevalent issue among seniors, significantly impacting their health. They require connection, acceptance, and tailored attention to address the needs of their aging bodies and minds. 

Encore Wellness tackles senior loneliness by facilitating social connections and addressing the physical challenges associated with aging. The platform offers seniors diverse options to maintain fitness, health, and fulfillment, while also serving as a social platform, allowing to engage in social groups of their preference, and connect with friends from all over the country.

Product Discovery

Kicking-off the discovery workshops, we covered client and end-user requirements, reviewed features of the existing pilot service, and selected those for the online platform. We then created a list of target functionalities, organizing them into development cycles.

UI/UX Design

During subsequent workshops, we collaborated with the client to develop personas tailored to end users and the admin. We crafted user flows and then progressed to low-fi and high-fi designs tailored to an older demographic.
