Mobile app
The Project
A mobile app I designed in the IDF for entering and tracking training data for soldiers and reservists. It improves readiness and is currently in active use.
The Problem
01
Frequent loss or damage of training records
03
Significant paper waste
02
Long hours spent manually typing data after each session
04
No way to generate reports or gain data-driven insights
The Solution
A mobile app that replaces the manual process with simple digital workflows, secure identification, and easy on-the-go data entry. It saves time, prevents data loss, and gives commanders clear insights into training readiness.
UX Research
Persona
Out of the three personas that I diagnosed, I chose to present the most significant persona
Itamar Nitzan
20 Years old | Single | commander in the artillery corps
Itamar is a coach commander in the artillery corps.
Every day, about 80 reservists train in front of him at the "Cochav" trainer. Each training session is recorded on a dedicated printed page. When he arrives at the office, he wastes valuable time and spends hours typing the results of the training of about 80 trainees into the system.
I like to write feedback about my trainees, but all the messing with the pages and typing into the system afterwards, really tires me out
Pain Points
I conducted interviews with about 12 commanders in the training area, analyzed the collected data and identified common themes, which were consolidated into central pain points:
Research Conclusions
Interviews with 12 commanders showed resistance to technology, outdated workflows, and heavy time loss from manual data entry. These insights highlighted the need for a modern, efficient system. Cochav Trainer answers this gap with streamlined mobile data entry and secure permissions, helping drive a cultural shift toward smarter, more organized training management in the Ground Forces.
Key Features
Dark mode for data entry in night conditions
A management interface that includes the ability to add training sessions and users
Friendly forms for entering individual and team trainings
Viewing cross-sectional reports in order to draw conclusions

Branding
Logo Design
Besides the characterization and design of the application, I branded it in the colors of the corps and designed a customized logo according to the client's request A combination of the "Merkava" tank, IDF colors and a harmonious combination of a star

Training
I transformed the paper-based data process into a simple mobile flow, making it easy to record both individual and team training sessions.

Theme
The app supports both light and dark modes, letting users choose what fits their preference or field conditions. Light mode improves clarity, while dark mode suits low-light environments.
Admin Interface
I designed a dedicated admin panel that lets commanders manage training events, handle user approvals, and access reports. Building it required close work with developers to ensure real-time data sync and smooth user management, creating a system that meets both operational and technical needs.

Reports
The app provides clear reports that let commanders compare units and roles, track performance, and view training data through simple charts and visual summaries.
Commander Dashboard
A central view of training data from the Cochav app, delivering real-time insights for faster decisions and improved operational efficiency.
Success Metrics
Real use of the app significantly improved efficiency, accuracy, and decision-making for commanders in the field.
60%
faster data entry in real training sessions.
35%
fewer data errors.
+160
paper sheets saved daily by replacing manual forms with a fully digital workflow
30min
saved in every end-of-day brief thanks to the Insights Dashboard.
These improvements streamlined daily workflows, strengthened data reliability, and enabled commanders to make faster, clearer, and more informed decisions.
Future Features
Additional reports from the data stored in the application as a result of the inputs
Possibility to send a survey to the trainees after the training and watch the results
Thank you!
