Viviome Health - At-home health testing mobile app

Viviome (later renamed Vi2) is a service by Spatial Lab offering systematic at-home health testing. With a domestic testing device, households gain timely access to health information - microbiome, infections - without hospital visits. My role was to design a mobile application that works with the testing kit, connects users with health professionals, and presents results clearly.

The first challenge was understanding where the app sits within the broader product ecosystem. Through competitive analysis of telehealth hardware and companion apps, we mapped the spectrum of scenarios where mobile apps support at-home health devices - from simple result viewers to full diagnostic platforms.

After mind-mapping sessions and user research, we defined the design scope: the app should help users create accounts, receive analytical information, execute tests, and share results with their healthcare network.

With the larger framework set, we specified the medical needs of users. Through at-home tests, users are most interested in detecting health risks for themselves and family members, then getting professional guidance. Three major test types were included for the initial product - with the vision that Vi2 would grow into a platform hosting tests from multiple manufacturers.

The application was expected to undergo many iterations after my work. New features or entirely different approaches might be introduced. I approached the design with change in mind - building a fully responsive UI library that anyone could update and extend without rebuilding from scratch.

Throughout the project, I maintained detailed documentation including customer journey maps, system maps, hand-drawn wireframes, and branding explorations to ensure a smooth handoff and clear design rationale.
