Super Cool Health and Wellbeing App! HealthQuest

Inspiration

Embarking on a journey towards better health and self-improvement is a big step and is not easy to do, and we understand the challenges that come with each step towards a better version of ourselves. We believe that with every stride, no matter how small, deserves recognition and celebration. In such a way we created an app that acts as a digital companion, cheering you on with every small victory, offering support during tough moments, and celebrating the life changing journey of self-discovery.

What it does

HealthQuest is more than just an app; it acts as a digital companion on your journey to achieve your goal. Picture it as a personal guide, starting with a simple question; What’s your primary goal? Whether it’s a wellness milestone, a mental health objective, or just an all-around self-improvement, there’s no judgment here. Next, decide how often you’d like to progress - daily, weekly, or even hourly. Additionally, there will also be milestones, and with each milestone passed you will be rewarded with WellnessCoins. The further you progress within the milestones, the greater the reward will be. With WellnessCoins you can redeem them for many prizes helping you make your wellness journey fulfilling and enjoyable. Treat yourself to gift cards to your favorite stores, cash rewards, exclusive coupons for wellness products, and even exciting physical prizes. But it doesn’t just stop here. If you're ever feeling down or just need someone to talk to, there is a 24/7 hotline which you can either call or text. If you're elderly, there are more secrets to be unlocked. A 24/7 AI companion will be at your side at all times or you can request a virtual friend which is available 24/7. They will be there to help you go throughout your day, answer questions, help you feel safe and comfortable and provide tech assistance to make sure you still feel young and out of touch with the modern day. What if achieving your health goals was not just about discipline, but also about turning your journey into a rewarding adventure?

Challenges we ran into

One of our team members were at CREATE, and in such our work load was much heavier but we still managed to finish this project even though they are in the woods. We also couldn't record in person because he was not available and had to resort to scheduling a time over video.

What we learned

We learned the design process when creating an app. Despite HealthQuest being in the conceptual realm, a user-centered approach guided our thinking. We sought to understand potential users, collecting insights through hypothetical surveys and interviews. This approach laid the foundation for a solution that resonates with diverse user needs. In the conceptual stage, testing became a simulated exercise. We envisioned various user scenarios, identified potential issues, and considered how HealthQuest could maintain reliability and usability. Hypothetical user feedback informed our refinements.
