What it does
WellNessi Whale is an Android app that allows people to monitor their mood and be reminded to practice healthy mental health habits, improving their overall well-being.
The mood monitor function prompts the user to input how they are feeling, and WellNessi Whale responds with a suggestion.
The notification system currently periodically sends reminders in intervals of 10-30 seconds depending on the habit, for testing purposes, but realistically would take place over hours.
How we built it
We created the app using Android Studio and utilized Java to write the code.
Challenges we ran into
The first challenge we faced was trying to figure out how to use Android Studio since none of us had used it prior to the hackathon. On top of this, we were also faced with the issue of not knowing how we could all work collaboratively on our Android Studio project.
What we learned
After completing this project, we have become much more familiar with Android Studio and mobile app development in general.
What's next for WellNessi Whale
We would like to increase functionality: track user’s mood in a calendar daily, increase personalization, and further refine the notification system.
