Facilitating Education
that Saves Lives
Problem
The existing MyATLS mobile app was outdated and riddled with user pain points. Students struggled to navigate between their physical course materials and the app, especially on mobile devices. The back-end systems were also outdated and in the process of being rebuilt, while the most current course content, such as the ATLS 10th Edition, was not included in the app.
Process
Role
I joined the project during the post-MVP design phase. Although the core screens had been developed, there was little content or UI design applied. My role was to elevate the design, integrating new functionalities such as quizzes, flashcards, and skill stations, while ensuring the app was mobile-friendly and accessible to a global audience. I worked within the ACS design system, incorporating updated branding and a modern aesthetic. Additionally, I designed custom graphics for reward screens, quizzes, and infographics to enhance the overall user experience.
Updating content
Solution
The redesigned MyATLS mobile app now features the ATLS 10th Edition content, allowing users to access key elements of the ACS Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) program. This includes chapter summaries, videos, calculators, interactive algorithms, tables, skill stations, checklists, practice quizzes, and flashcards. The app’s interface was updated with a clean, modern aesthetic and refreshed ACS branding, focusing on user-friendly navigation and accessibility. It allows users to prepare for the ATLS course exam or refresh their knowledge anytime, from anywhere.
Project Outcome
Updated Content
The updated MyATLS app successfully launched on the Google Play Store for Android, with Apple iOS and multilingual support as part of the next development phase.
Now Available
The app now includes the most current course materials, helping medical professionals worldwide access life-saving educational content with ease and efficiency.
