Inspiration
Have you ever felt that within the same day, your mood swings were so dramatic that you can't even keep track of? Even when you have a supportive network of friends and family, it's still not enough to feel heard and understood whenever those emotions arise? Maybe sometimes, you don't even want to tell your close friends and family about your poor mental health before trying to figure out on your own first.
With Covid-19, the problem of mood swing and poor mental health exacerbates as many people feel more isolated and lonelier than ever! As one can't manage what one doesn't measure, it is important to track one's mood, not only for people who suffer from mental illness but also for individuals to self-regulate their emotional well-being in these unprecedented times.
What it does
Mootive a mood tracking, journalling and self-help app on mental well-being. We track your mood pattern and provide analytical insights, utilise machine learning to provide personalised recommendations to help you improve your mood, as well as an online support group where you can talk to like-minded people who are in the same boat as you.
Unlike most mood-tracking apps on the market which only collect and analysis users' data, Mootive encourages and supports further action by providing personalised recommendations to improve their mood and avoid triggers. The community feature particularly helps users to find peer support online since many people might feel easier to talk to like-minded strangers online about their mental health struggles than to their friends and family.
How I built it
I used paper prototyping & Figma.
Challenges I ran into
My technical teammate suddenly told me that he wouldn't be able to make it to this Hackathon. Having no technical background at all, I decided to quickly learn and use Figma to create this prototype from scratch. I wasn't sure if I'll be able to do it under the time pressure, however, I decided to give it a go anyway! I'm really glad that I made it on time and built something of my own :)
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
This is the first Hackathon I've ever joined, the first prototype I've ever built and the first time I've ever used Figma!
What I learned
How to use Figma! I also learnt how to communicate my idea to my teammate, as well as how to visualise my idea into something tangible.
