Insights
During the Dr. Lal PathLabs Native App Optimization and Redesign project, several challenges emerged, providing valuable insights that shaped our user-centric solution. One major issue was the fragmentation of core workflows, such as registration and test booking, which led to user frustration and higher drop-off rates. By simplifying these processes with fewer steps and clearer task flows, we significantly enhanced user efficiency and satisfaction.
Additionally, the interface was cluttered, lacking a clear visual hierarchy, which caused confusion. A comprehensive redesign was essential to prioritize key content and develop a more intuitive, user-friendly layout.
