Overview
LOOPE CARE is a startup building a wristband for elderly people and an app for their families. I’m designing the app end to end, from the client’s concept to a calm interface that answers one question first: “Is Mom OK?”
The brief
Turn a widget-heavy concept into an app that shows heart rate, SpO2, temperature, steps, GPS and medication without overwhelming anyone.
The users
Children, grandchildren and caregivers of different ages and digital literacy, some with weaker eyesight.
My role
UX/UI designer: IA, user flows, UI and components. An early-stage startup with a limited budget, and the project is in progress.
02
Context
Six data streams, one worried family member and a single question: is everything OK?

data streams: heart rate, SpO2, temperature, steps, GPS, medication

What made it hard
Many metrics, small screen
Users of all ages and literacy levels
Calm when fine, fast when not
Key insight
The client’s concept stacked six big widgets. A worried relative doesn’t want to read six numbers. They want one answer, and details only when something is off.
03
Solution
One answer before any number
The home screen opens with a status ring that sums up all vitals in plain words: “Everything is balanced”, “Slight imbalance”, “Needs care”. Metrics sit below as compact tiles, each with its own status.

Every value has a status
Why here
Families spend most of their time on the home screen, and the brief asked it to answer “Is my family member OK?” immediately.
Key decision
Lead with a colour-coded summary in words, keep exact values one glance below and show the reason when something is off.
How we’d measure
Time to understand the status · fewer “are you OK?” calls · alert response time

Alerts
Alerts that lead to action
Each alert opens a sheet with what happened and quick actions: Open GPS, Call Mom, Health. Trade-off: a separate sheet for every alert type.
Device
The band has its own screen
Battery, charging time, subscription and a QR code to pair the band; low battery and “bracelet not detected” get their own states. Trade-off: extra states for a small team.
Metrics
Each vital in 1, 3 and 7 days
Heart rate, SpO2, temperature and steps get their own screen with a current value, a status and short ranges instead of complex charts. Trade-off: long-term reports come later.
Family
Several relatives in one app
A switcher in the header (Mom, Dad) lets one person look after several family members. Trade-off: every screen must show whose data it is.
