ComfortStep

ComfortStep is an app that helps people with chronic condition, particularly overweight, to rebuild a healthy lifestyle.

What it does

ComfortStep allows users to build a healthy lifestyle through stepping out of their comfort zone and committing to simple exercises daily. It's community feature also helps users to build confidence and social network, allowing him to share his journey and gain sense of achievement.

How we built it

We built our app with very simple and straight-forward user-interface so that forming a healthy routine feels easy.

Challenges we ran into

Initially, our team focused on making users commit to exercising in order to build a nice score in our app but we soon realized that this method is demotivating. Therefore, instead of forcing our users to commit to their streak, we have decided not to restart their streak no matter how long they've stopped completing exercises. This allows users to genuinely keep track of the progress they made and build a sense of achievement.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We feel proud that we created an app that encourages users to focus on the progress and efforts they made rather than the results.

What we learned

Through building our app, we learned the importance putting ourselves in other's shoes. It is really crucial that we always think from our users' perspective to truly help them.

What's next for ComfortStep

In the future, we hope to connect with more professionals to expand our app, providing easier access to appointments at anytime and create more structured exercising lessons.
