eargym
Eargym is a startup focused on helping individuals take better care of their hearing through various assessments, training games, and educational resources. The issue at hand is that 1 in 6 adults in the UK experiences hearing loss. The eargym app is designed to assist users in identifying hearing problems and enhancing their hearing health. It primarily targets the elderly who naturally experience hearing loss, those working in noisy environments, and anyone who feels their hearing isn't optimal. Perpetio was tasked with redesigning the app and incorporating new hearing health features, along with integrating Unity games and providing support. Additionally, the Perpetio team committed to the ongoing deployment of new features, which involved research on hearing health.
To address these needs, Perpetio developed a workflow and delivery system that effectively scopes and introduces features requiring extensive research. They made significant improvements to the app’s codebase and the integration with Unity. New analytics tools, including Smartlook and A/B testing, were also implemented.
As a result of the team's dedication, eargym launched an updated version of the app that offers a significantly enhanced user experience, new games, a Learn Tab with valuable information on hearing health, and a gamification system that encourages daily exercises. Furthermore, the app's structure was redefined to include a subscription business model, along with the establishment of analytics and research metrics.
