How MyPaperwork is Redefining Sexual Health Testing
Sexual health testing often faces hurdles like stigma, high costs, and accessibility issues—barriers that prevent many, especially those in urban centers and college campuses, from getting tested. MyPaperwork tackles these challenges head-on by offering:
Affordable testing that lowers financial barriers to care.
A seamless booking experience with local labs through in-app ordering.
A secure, shareable digital health record with controlled result access.
A welcoming user experience designed to encourage testing without intimidation.
Scalability to accommodate a growing user base and potential international expansion.
Innovating with Trust, Simplicity, and User-Centered Design
1. Building Trust from the First Interaction
The onboarding process was designed not just to be intuitive but to drive users toward booking a test—a critical success metric.
Key trust-building elements include:
Magic Link authentication & Face ID support.
Step-by-step onboarding UX.
HIPAA-compliant data handling.
Geolocation-based lab recommendations.
Outcome: Early testing showed that a well-designed onboarding flow increased test bookings during the first user session—a key trust signal for MyPaperwork.
2. Engineering a Frictionless User Journey
MyPaperwork’s success depended on removing obstacles at every step. The app was structured around four key user journeys:
1. Discovery
Users find the app via social media, referrals, or partner platforms.
2. Testing
Locate nearby certified testing centers, book tests, and and complete payments.
3. Results Management
Receive and store results in-app securely.
4. Secure Sharing
Users share results via controlled permissions and auto-expiring deep links.
Key UX Strategies to Reduce Drop-offs:
Optimized checkout flow to resemble e-commerce for intuitive navigation.
Smart reminders & nudges to prevent users from abandoning the process.
Re-test reminders (90 days after the last test) to encourage ongoing engagemen
3. A Bold UX Approach That Breaks the Medical Mold
Unlike traditional health apps with clinical aesthetics, MyPaperwork embraces a vibrant, playful UI that reduces stigma and anxiety.
Bright, engaging colors instead of sterile whites and blues.
User Impact:
Many first-time testers reported feeling less anxious about the process, thanks to the design language.
Fun,friendly copywriting to make the process approachable.
Interactive features like result sharing and dating-style swipes.
4. Privacy and Security in Perfect Balance
Handling sensitive health data required strict HIPAA compliance, secured through:
Email-based identity verification to prevent impersonation.
Encrypted storage for PHI protection.
Strict permission controls for test result sharing.
Auto-expiring deep links to prevent unauthorized access.
5. Monetization Strategy
Unlike competitors who monetize through expensive one-off tests, MyPaperwork leverages a freemium model:

Why This Works:
Instead of forcing users to pay per test, MyPaperwork creates a habit-driven subscription model, turning health compliance into an ongoing engagement loop.

Crafting a UX that removes stigma and builds trust from onboarding.
Making STI testing accessible & private without compromising credibility.
