Concept
Concept
The key functionality of this app was the ability for journal entries to be analyzed by AI that extracts key words from the entry. After AI analysis, these key words and general sentiment analysis is displayed back to the client on the app.
The goal of developing this mobile app was to faithfully recreate the app prototype using React Native Expo framework, Google Firebase, and EdenAI Sentiment Analysis.
Journal Functionality
Journal Functionality
The AI used in innersight first executes a general sentiment analysis. Based on the text written by the client, the AI returns a summary of whether the excerpt was positive, negative, or neutral in sentiment.
Key words are then pulled from the journal entries and piped into the statistics page which shows an overview of the categories of emotions experienced by the client.
Based on this overview, recommended activities are provided to the client to improve their mental health.
Accessibility
Accessibility
Accessibility settings such as dark mode and scalable font size were through toggle button functionality. The journal client can select the different types of accessibility settings they want to use and the settings will apply throughout the entire app.
Promotional Video
Promotional Video
A promotional video was developed to help potential clients better understand innersight in a visual manner. Using story-based techniques, the video conveys a client, Amaya, gaining better insight into her mental health journey through the use of the app.
Colour filters, varying sound levels, and creative decisionmaking regarding types of shots cut together were used to ensure consistency between the main innersight app and the promotional video, and to create a smooth, consistent, and enjoyable presentation for the client.
