Secondly as it’s a version 2.0 of the app we need to create much more intuitive and user friendly app and also give a world class experience in the new app.

Initial Challenges - in front of us:
Need to Release Version 2.0
Need to Release Version 2.0
PetPace Version 1.0 is already a successful launch and now there AI Sensors are upgraded and the PetPace collar is more advance and accurate in prediction so our major challenge is to understand the Version 1.0 and then to figure out new upgrades and make a world class solution for Version 2.0
Version 1.0 below
Identify the pain points – of an existing App
When we thoroughly studied the app we found some UX issues like
1) More scope of user friendliness
2) Aesthetics should make it more technical then that of simple
3) Simple and soothing design instead of technical looking design.
New Upgrades
Secondly we have a challenge to create a complete Disease management system which predicts & alert user if a pet is suffering from some particular disease symptoms and need to design and incorporate it into the same app.
The new PetPace app 2.0 gives you an opportunity to follow your dog’s walking activity on a map using the PetPace map service. User now able to create different types of safe zones to be sure his/her pet is safe.
Now User can add to the app up to 4 pets and more than one collar.
Solution:
Before working on the solution we will thoroughly studied our target users i.e. Pet lovers and the capabilities of the PetPace Collar and distribute our whole app into 5 major Categories…
Smooth on-boarding - Assign & connect Collar
Everyday Feeling & Condition to measure
Maps & Insights
Health Centre (Disease management.)
Analytics of pet’s health
Working on the User flow & Journey mapping:
First we will start working on the initial user flow and journey to create a Smooth and Robust navigation for the User. As it comprises of too many features and also some paid features like Health Center (Disease Management System) which makes it more complex to remember each and every navigation link.
We distribute the user flow into footer icons which is used most frequently like
1) Checking Alerts & Notifications
2) Maps
3) Health Center
4) Add Goals, Events, Reminders etc.
Footer – Petpace version 2.0
Then we Create a complete App flow to create the whole App user journey. It helps us to analyse the navigation and then we were in group of discussion and after a couple of reiterations we are able to create a perfect user flow to move on.
App User Journey – Petpace version 2.0
Secondary Research: Secondly we had started our secondary research after seeing the old version and some competitor apps on the internet.
Wireframes: Then we will start creating an initial low fidelity wire frame design for the header footer for the easy accessibility for a user.
Dashboard options and other wireframes – PetPace version 2.0
These wireframes were then discussed it thoroughly and reiterate according to the feedback
Dashboard Design:
And once the base has been finalized then we will start working on the initial design of the Dashboard first.
From Wireframe to final Dashboard designs needs numerous discussion, user feedbacks, Iterations the above Dashboard design has been finalized consolidating major things a user needs on his dashboard every time.
On-boarding and Collar connect:
As the AI based collar is the soul of the whole system so connecting that collar with the app and assigning a pet to a collar is one of the way to enable the PetPace app system.
Maps & Safe Zones
We can track, Locate & create a safe zone for our pet using maps feature. A safe zone is an area where the pet spends its time and is safe. We can identify and name that area like Home, Office, Park etc. and if your pet wanders outside of any Safezone the app alert us.
Insights, Activity & Health Center (Disease Management)
The AI will process data and give meaningful insights, scores and Advance health management like Pet’s activity, sleep, feeling, positions, Pain (OA), and other diseases.
Analytics (Trends, Benefits, Comparison)
The AI will process data and give meaningful analytics of all data collected with a PetPace collar from a User’s pet as well as the other pet’s from a PetPace community. Now it is much more easy for a User to analyse information about his pet’s overall Health condition with various graphs.
Business Benefits & Conclusion
PetPace Version 2.0 is ready to be a personal assistant to the pet which will create a multi-lane connection between a Pet & the Pet owner. It provides a real time data of the Pet’s Health, Mood, Condition, Pain, Predictions by tracking continuously using the collar sensors. The UX & UI we have created for the App is the only source to connect and communicate with the AI based sensors.
We beautifully visualize the data in the form of Table, Maps, Emoji’s, Audio, Video Animation will engage the pet owner in such a way that he will not only love to spend time with our App but also endorse and recommend this amazing App hence eventually will increase sales.
Nothing is permanent and we are ready for this new launch and the feedback on the design to implement it in the new version.
