At-A-Glance

My Bike Claim is a mobile app designed to enhance the insurance claims process for motorbike riders. It eliminates the need for claimants to call the insurance provider, 4th Dimension, by offering real-time claim updates. Initially launched for non-fault claims, the app ensures users can track their claim and vehicle status at every stage.

Operations

Determining how claim status updates were handled internally.

Desire for quick access to information and simple language

Claimants wanted 24/7 access to advice and information in simple formatting due to English being a second language for most.

Mindsets

Post customer interviews I sorted their views into mindset maps to better understand needs and features.

Reassurance Seeker

Needs real-time updates, instant notifications, clear next steps.

Impatient Fixer

Needs quick information, and clear timelines.

Confused Claimant

Needs simple language, and guidance through each step.

Points of Friction

Understanding current pit falls in the process was crucial to the creation of product features.

Call Volume

Claimants called support teams for updates that could have been automated.

User Frustration

Claimants felt left in the dark, causing negative customer sentiment.

Internal Strain

Increased manual work for customer support teams.

Key Takeaways

Riders frequently called for updates, leading to a overload of calls.

  1. The Solution

These pain points created the building blocks for features, status requests, and the design principles. The solution? An MVP that provides real time updates, trust, confidence & lower internal strain.

Progress Page

A real-time updating timeline keeps users informed about their status at every stage. They can track where their vehicle has been and what’s next. Tappable statuses offer deeper insights into each step.

  1. Version 2

Following feedback from the MVP, the app had major enhancements.

Clear & Focused

Clear & Focused

Text was overwhelming, especially for non-English speakers. I removed unnecessary descriptions and simplified language. The homepage now shows the full claim journey, not just the current status. Removing the navigation bar frees up space, while a relevant FAQ section and help desk link make support easier to find.

Quick Access Overlay

Quick Access Overlay

The progress overlay replaces the static page for easy access. A new breakdown of statuses clarify updates (e.g., "repairing" vs. "awaiting parts"). Auto-scrolling highlights the user’s current status, and a top progress bar helps track progress without confusion.
