Basic First Aid

Research Summary
I interviewed nine men and women, ages 30s - 70s, unmoderated online. I used the data to create an affinity map, develop personas and select topics.
INTERVIEW TOPICS
Why is a first aid app purposeful? What topics would be of interest? How do you respond to the use of illustration and/or photography as teaching aids?
FIELD WORK
Online research, affinity map, empathy map, crazy 8s, competitive audit
FINDINGS
Online research and the competitive audit influenced a simple and bold UI. Participants expressed anxiousness around first aid topics; therefore, I included a section on calming and wellbeing. They confirmed the app is useful as a quick study guide.
Understanding the User
"Why would you use a basic first aid app?"
“Learning, knowledge, a lot of people including myself do not have basic first aid knowledge”

AFFINITY MAP
The affinity map was built based on the interview question data. Participants expressed frustration when searching online for health or first aid information. They were also asked their preferences on topics, visuals and ideas.
