Introduction
Currently, the importance and care of mental health have significantly increased, and with good reason. In a world characterized by rapid change and constant pressure, psychological well-being has become a fundamental aspect of global health. Information about mental health is not only vital for understanding and addressing psychological disorders, but it is also essential for promoting balanced lifestyles.
The Challenge
Problem statement: People interested in their emotional well-being require a reliable tool that provides information on mental health and offers support, as they need to learn how to manage their emotions.
One of the main challenges in designing Leora was finding the balance between simplicity and functionality. Since our target audience seeks a calm and stress-free experience, it was essential to create an intuitive and relaxing interface that wouldn’t overwhelm users with complicated options. At the same time, the App needed to offer key features, such as the ability to customize wellness playlists and receive recommendations based on the user’s emotional state. Integrating these functionalities in an accessible and user-friendly way, without sacrificing fluidity and clarity, was a key challenge we addressed through iterative testing and a user-centered approach.
The Solution
As a result of the entire process mentioned, we have arrived at the following screens, offering a proposal for a modern visual identity adapted to native iOS styles. The process has been very enriching, as I was able to immerse myself in an unfamiliar subject, having the opportunity to understand the current context, not only from the perspective of those who may currently be dealing with mental health concerns but also from having the chance to speak with professionals.
