Mental Health Community App Development
Our client has this unique idea of creating a mental health community platform to promote psychological self-care. And we couldn’t be more excited to bring it to life. Because more often than not, people avoid sharing that they are trapped in depression or struggling with mental health issues. And a common reason behind it is a lack of awareness or confidence to talk about it.
Hence, after brainstorming with our client, we suggested creating a user-friendly mobile app that puts access to mental health professionals in the palm of the user. The mental health mobile app will feature functionalities, such as login, unique profile, community, send/receive a connection request, chat, and an easy-to-navigate admin panel to handle user profiles and activities on the app.
Furthermore, there will be two types of users: those who seek mental health support and; who can provide mental health support (professionals). This will enable anyone to nurture their mental health by connecting with like-minded people or communicating with a therapist in real-time.
In order to take online therapy and make it out of stress or depression, users have to register and create their profile on the app. Once the app verifies the user’s identity, it will allow them to connect with other people and therapists to open up and solve their mental health issues.
Admin Panel Features To Help Client Control The App
To manage the entire app, an Admin panel was obligatory to create that would help our client grow their app steadily.
- Analytical Dashboard for a quick overview of app performance
- Mobile app screens management
- Users’ and therapists’ account management
- Customer health reports management
- App Content Management
- Ensure secure payment transactions made by users
- Report creation
- Create and manage marketing campaigns like Push notifications, Promotional, and Communications
- Manage Platform Rules
Problem
Our client had a unique but purpose-driven app idea that required a lot of research to understand the user segment and the difficulties they face finding the support to fight anxiety. The platform was supposed to reduce stress and help people focus on personal growth by connecting them with mental health experts and a community where they can open up about what they are going through. Keeping a user perspective in our mind, we had to create an online platform with
- Attractive and engaging user interfaces
- Easy-to-use platform with high security
- Online payment processes
- Functionality to make mental health-related content accessible in various formats
- A social media-like touch to view and connect with other users and health care professionals
Challenges
After a thorough examination and studying user persona, the Techtic team suggested using a cross-platform technology to build this mental health app. This way, our client can target their ideal audience on both Android and iOS platforms. However, while developing a mental health mobile app, we also confronted and addressed some challenges, such as:
- Mapping user journey efficiently
- Applying necessary protocol to ensure the user data safety against third-party frauds and identity theft
- Convenient registration and profile management
- Adaptable app functionality from finding and connecting to communicating with new people
- Smooth-running admin panel with the power to manage the entire mental health app
Result
Though the concept was a novice, our qualified developers completed the project within the timeframe, achieving a high client satisfaction rate. After testing, we launched the app, ensuring users’ sensitive data security and enhanced app performance. All the hard work from ideation to launch paid off when our client confirmed the outcome is how they precisely envisioned it. Now, the app is up and running, helping people improve their mental health with the growing number of therapists and the community.
