Verity Protect
A call-screening app for older adults that blocks scam risk, lets trusted callers through, and gives families real-time oversight.
I built Verity Protect after seeing how easy it is for older adults to get trapped by scam calls. The goal was to protect users without making the phone harder to use, so I designed a simplified screening flow with trusted callers, unknown-call handling, and caregiver visibility. I led the project end to end across research, UX strategy, product design, frontend, backend, and launch planning, with accessibility decisions like larger tap targets and lower cognitive load guiding the interface. The result was a mobile product that shipped on iOS and quickly proved demand through installs and usage.
Tools: React Native, Supabase, Render, Twilio
