By incorporating as many industries as possible, we came up with the idea of creating an app for COVID and post-COVID-19 management called “THE RECOVERY 19”. This app will serve to alleviate emotional distress by providing psychiatric services to those in need, cater to individuals with medical problems by providing chatbots for consultations and for other personal issues, implement social chats to connect teenagers and industrial professionals all across the world and arrange for volunteers who are generous enough to help businesses greatly affected, to get back on their feet. The Recovery 19 will also be able to track and record data of the infected, recovered, and deceased. The app will be accessible on platforms free of charge such as the App Store and Google Play Store. Inspiration stemmed from witnessing the global disturbance that the current pandemic is causing to our countries and our communities. It is such an eye-opener for us and it has revealed how hard we (the people) must work together to make a difference and restore what has been lost. True inspiration came from our desire to see change. We believe that this app will help persons who may need reassurance during this tough time, not to mention those who suffer from anxiety or any other psychological conditions. As for lessons, we’ve learned that teamwork plays and continues to play a great role in this project. We’ve managed to compile our ideas based on how we think something positive can be extracted from this process. We have also learned and understood that not everyone has been affected by COVID-19 the same and so the app will be a one of a kind platform for “escape” purposes, to communicate with others who’ve experienced similarities, get involved in fun activities and most of all to stay occupied.
