overview
Haven is a mental wellness app for busy people who want a few minutes of calm a day. It opens on a one-tap mood check-in, plans small activities across the day, and tracks how mood changes over the week.
the problem
Most wellness apps ask for a long session before they give anything back. People drop off in the first week because the habit never fits into their day, and they can’t see whether it is helping.

solution
A home screen that starts with how you feel, then suggests one quick exercise. A daily activity timeline spreads meditation, breathing and reading from morning to night, guided audio sessions stay under ten minutes, and a weekly mood journey shows streaks and good days.

outcome
In a two-week test, participants kept checking in for most of the days, and the weekly mood view was the screen they returned to most.
