Senior Graphic & UI/UX Designer​

OVERVIEW

The AirDoctor Mobile App was created to extend the capabilities of AirDoctor’s high-performance air purification systems, offering users a smart, connected experience. Designed for health-conscious individuals, families, and those with specific respiratory needs, the app provides remote control, real-time air quality monitoring, and proactive maintenance alerts.

My role was to design a mobile experience that aligns with AirDoctor’s mission of healthier living—ensuring users can manage their indoor air quality with confidence, convenience, and control.

THE PROBLEM

While AirDoctor’s purifiers are highly effective at removing airborne pollutants, users lacked a simple, centralized way to monitor and manage their devices. This led to several pain points:

  • Limited visibility into real-time air quality levels

  • No remote access to adjust settings or turn devices on/off while away from home

  • Unclear filter replacement status, resulting in either premature or delayed changes

  • No customizable alerts, making it harder for users to respond quickly to air quality changes

As indoor air health becomes more vital, especially for vulnerable populations, the lack of smart control limited the full potential of the AirDoctor system.

RESULTS

The new AirDoctor Mobile App significantly elevated the user experience by integrating smart control, real-time insights, and proactive health tools into a single, intuitive platform. Users can now view real-time air quality dashboards that clearly visualize indoor pollution levels, making it easier to understand and respond to changes in their environment. The app also introduced remote control capabilities, enabling users to manage their AirDoctor units from anywhere. Smart filter monitoring and timely replacement alerts, based on actual usage, help ensure optimal performance, while customizable notifications keep users informed of air quality shifts. 

Altogether, the app empowers users to take control of their indoor air, creating a cleaner, safer, and healthier living space for themselves and their families.
