Transforming complex hydraulic calculations into a modern, intuitive field experience.
Role: Sole Product Designer (with feedback from a Design and Research Lead and Chief Design Officer)
Timeline: 1 month-long project for Teledyne ISCO
Constraints: 1-month timeline due to fixed launch at ANEAS 2024; Required full redesign of a non-functional Android app; Maintain visual and functional consistency across platforms; Ensure UX supported field-specific workflows for flow rate calculations
Impact: Successfully launched on iOS and Android ahead of ANEAS 2024, a leading Latin American water and sanitation conference; Received strong field feedback and a 4.5-star iOS rating; Surpassed 500 downloads on Android; Prompted follow-up client discussions for FlowCalc 2.0 initiative
Overview
FlowCalc is a cross-platform mobile app redesign that helps field professionals complete hydraulic flow calculations with greater clarity and reliability.
Problem
The legacy app was outdated, inconsistent, and difficult to use in field conditions where users needed fast, precise calculation support.

Legacy App Audit
Identifying where the experience was breaking down.
The original Android and iOS apps lacked visual consistency, modern interaction patterns, and clear calculation structure. Auditing the legacy experience clarified which interface issues needed to be resolved before launch.
Calculation Clarity
Improving input structure for field use.
Early design work focused on making measurement inputs, scale controls, and calculation results easier to read under field conditions. Refining the calculator layout created a stronger foundation for repeated conversion types across the app.
Q Component Redesign
Prioritizing the most important result.
Internal design reviews showed that the Q value needed stronger hierarchy as the app’s primary calculation output. The redesigned Q component separated the result from inputs and actions so users could identify it quickly.

Supporting Screens
Creating a complete mobile experience.
The redesign extended beyond the calculator to support onboarding, saved calculations, settings, and key user actions. These screens helped make the app feel cohesive across the full field workflow.
Design System
Maintaining consistency across platforms.
The design system standardized typography, spacing, components, tags, validation states, modals, and cards. This gave the app a scalable foundation while preserving clarity across iOS and Android.

Impact
Launching a reliable field tool.
FlowCalc launched on iOS and Android ahead of ANEAS 2024, supporting a mission-critical campaign for Teledyne ISCO. The redesigned app received strong field feedback, earned a 4.5 star iOS rating, passed 500 Android downloads, and prompted follow-up discussions for FlowCalc 2.0.
