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.

1 month
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.

MVP

Starting the MVP phase, we simultaneously developed both user and admin panels. The primary functionalities included online classes and an on-demand materials catalog. Additionally, we successfully introduced weekly streaks and achievement badges to enhance motivation.
