Habito

2023

As part of a master’s project, I co-designed Habito in a team of three. It is a habit tracker app that helps users build healthy routines and break bad habits, inspired by Atomic Habits by James Clear Habito supports the establishment of healthy habits and helps the user to get rid of bad habits.

Overview
  • Design approach: This study project utilized a human-centered design approach to create and design a smartphone application. Through an iterative process, we evaluated the app‘s features and design to achieve intuitive usability.
  • Core concept: Habito guides users step by step with AI-generated suggestions to make forming positive habits easier. A manual tracking dashboard provides a clear overview and motivates users through small, consistent progress toward a healthier lifestyle.

Design process


Left side of the Double Diamond

Before designing solutions, we first had to identify real problems people struggle with.

The Double Diamond model guided us through this process. Its left side focuses on discovering and defining the problem space, forming the foundation for any solution developed in the next phase.


Right side of the Double Diamond

With a clearly defined problem, we moved to the right side of the Double Diamond: Developing and delivering solutions. Through iterative prototyping, creating user flows and testing we refined our ideas and shaped a habit tracker that is both practical and engaging.
