Blink.

Blink is a BeReal-inspired app that makes daily self-care and connection fun and low-pressure. Every morning at 6 AM, users get a random photo challenge, like snapping their lunch or something that made them smile, and have until midnight to complete it by uploading a photo. We built the MVP with React Native (Expo) on the frontend and a Node.js backend, using push notifications and scheduled jobs to handle daily prompts. Our biggest challenges were scoping features and making notifications reliable, but we’re proud we shipped a full end-to-end experience in a short time. Blink showed us how small, playful nudges can motivate healthier daily habits, and next we want to add friends, streaks, and reactions to make it even more social.
