Prototype 2
After evaluating the research and the interview results, our team decided to go with the second design method mentioned in the Interview result. Thus, we included several core functions in our prototype and planned to test on our proxy users.
The app allows users to create a 'Room' to write their diaries between friends and families. Once the user clicks on the 'Room', the previous journals will show up, and they can add new journal by clicking the bottom bar.
There are several types of journal framework that the users can choose from, including daily routine, general journal, challenge and social media reflection. Daily routine allows people to store their habits with specific topic, general journal stores general diaries and images of a day, challenge is the page where users can set their own goals and set the day of challenge, whereas social media reflection is the core feature of the app, where the users can upload screenshots about social media and express themselves with the leading questions. In every page, the users can choose about the mood when writing the diary.
Daily routine is a page where users can write down their daily habits to improve their life. Users can also record their mood and change the settings such as background colour, image, theme, paper texture etc.
General journal is a page where users can view/read journal entries.
In order to motivate the users to make a journal entry on a daily basis, the application will contain a 15 days challenge, where users are challenged to write at least one journal entry per day for 15 days in a row. If the user manages to achieve this challenge, they will be rewarded a gift voucher.
The users can comment on social media posts and record their mood about the post.
The users can upload posts on the anonymous forum to share their experiences to others. The users can attach their previous entries such as 15-days exercise challenge to share their journeys of the challenge.
The users can browse the support society nearby the users. The page provide users the phone number and the latest events of the organisation. The page offers users more opportunity to seek help and participant in the community.
