A mobile-first mental wellness app combining journaling, gamified self-care, and mood analytics to help UTD students (and beyond) care for their minds — one glance at a time.
As students, we know college life can be overwhelming. Between classes, deadlines, and daily stressors, mental health often takes a backseat.
