Pause. is a mental health app designed for those who struggle with mild-moderate anxiety. It focuses on providing healthy, effective ways to treat symptoms of anxiety and offers users a chance to ‘pause’ and change their focus to something else. Pause needed to be simple, easy to navigate, and look modern
──────────── APP DESIGN ────────────
PROCESS
As someone who struggles with anxiety, I wanted to develop an app that I personally would use. This meant I had to think hard about how the app is arranged for the user to get immediate results that are accurate for their situation. Those with anxiety typically have their own set of consistent symptoms, so I designed the app to save the user's favourite treatments or ‘Pin’ most liked treatments to the top of their lists. As for design, the app needed to be unalarming and soothing, so I chose a deep grey colour as the background, which is soothing on the eyes, and a sage green that calms and enforces a guaranteed ‘action’ within the app.
