The app’s primary features consist of:
Virtual Playground: Users collect fireflies, which can be exchanged for prizes, by taking part in interactive challenges that bring back memories of their early years.

Mood Tracker: A tool that provides users with individualised recommendations for elevating their mood and assists them in tracking their emotional status.

Sleep Assistant: This feature, which includes interactive animations, sleep modes, and plans to add white noise, is intended to help people get better sleep.
Live Help Line: Offers resources and help for mental health in real time.

Community Hall: A space where people can post questions or express their own opinions about mental health in order to create a welcoming community.

Weaving Dreams, which is aimed at adults who are under a lot of stress, combines interactive, entertaining components with aids for mental health and relaxation. The app’s emphasis on sentimental childhood themes aids users in re-establishing a connection with their inner selves while coping with the demands of the modern world.
After being created in Figma, the app prototype was tested by users to get their opinions. Though they pointed out areas that needed work, such more detailed instructions for the firefly redemption and more visibility of less-used services like the Live Help Line, participants expressed enjoyment of the sleep assistance cartoons and the children’s quiz. The UI will be improved for easier navigation in the future, and the Sleep Assistant will be fully functioning to improve user experience.
