Inspiration

Have you ever forgot to follow the medical prescription correctly? Have you ever worried about your beloved ones getting worse because of that reason? With multiple prescriptions, the chance of people failing to follow prescriptions is even higher. Up to 75% of people do not take their medicines properly which could lead to your disease getting worse, hospitalization, even death.

What it does

Therefore, we have developed an app called Medicall to help people resolve this problem. For many people, remembering to take a daily medication can be the difference between life and death. Using Medicall app can help decrease that risk. We care about your health and well-being.

How we built it

We used React-Native, Firebase, Google-API, and Figma to design the UI/UX, front end, and back end for the app.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest challenge that our team faced was the time limit. We had been planned lots of features on our main page but it was hard to complete since we had only 24 hours to set up and build the app. Also, react native is a kind of new technology in most of our team members, so during the time to build, we also need to learn more about the life cycle hooks of that technology. Even though 24 hours was a short amount of time to build the whole app, we believe that we have been done most of the features in the app and have a great time together.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are very proud of our progress in just 24 hours and we all completed our first Hackathon.

What we learned

We have learned how to work effectively in a team and new technologies. Some of our team members were first time trying to implement some components in React-native and design UI/UX using Figma.

What's next for MediCall

Within 24 hours, we have come up with a design, logo, basic functions, and features for Medicall. In the future, we could develop more features like the ones displayed in the prototype and help more stakeholders like people with disabilities and people with language barriers to protect their health. We care about community health especially during Covid time and hope this app will help contribute to this mission.
