Performance

As Firstline is more widely adopted across the globe, the list of available healthcare locations had become a little unwieldy. This update delivers a freshly-polished version of our location listing, and some performance improvements to ease switching between locations.

There are various other small performance improvements around the app which should continue to feel smooth and snappy to to use.

Web

🎉 Today we have released a huge update to the web version of Firstline!

Firstline is designed to be the point-of-care decision support tool on all platforms. Following on the heels of recent mobile updates, we have a transformational update for the web.

This release is the result of many months of design, development, testing and iteration. The interface has been crafted with a strong family resemblance to the mobile app, but reflects the unique DNA of the web.

Improvements include a clean new design that enhances information hierarchy, visual consistency, improved heuristics, and significantly improved performance across the board. And did we mention how pretty it is?

Over coming weeks we'll be lavishing even more development time on Firstline for the web.
