Project Overview

Harmony Habits is a mobile wellness app designed to make herbal knowledge feel accessible, personal, and easy to integrate into everyday life.
The app helps users build lasting herbal habits through education, mindful rituals, personalized tasks, plant discovery, recipes, and seasonal guidance.
The main goal was to create a calm and intuitive mobile experience where users can explore herbs, understand their benefits, and turn this knowledge into simple daily actions.
The final result is a soft, nature-inspired mobile app that combines wellness education, habit-building, and personalized recommendations in one clear experience.

Problem

Many people are interested in herbs, natural wellness, and plant-based rituals, but they often do not know where to start.
The main challenges were:
Herbal information can feel overwhelming Users may be interested in natural wellness but struggle to understand which herbs are useful, how to use them, and how to safely integrate them into daily routines.
Wellness habits are hard to maintain Even when users know what they want to do, they need reminders, simple tasks, and structured support to turn ideas into consistent habits.
Beginners need guidance The app had to feel welcoming for users with no herbal background, while still offering enough depth for those who want to explore plants more seriously.
Personalization was important Different users have different goals: better sleep, emotional balance, natural energy, gut health, immune support, skin care, or mental clarity. The app needed to adapt to those needs.
The experience had to feel calm, not clinical Since this is a wellness product, the interface needed to feel natural, soft, supportive, and emotionally comfortable.

Goals

Help users discover, understand, and integrate herbs into their daily lives.
Create a calming and beginner-friendly mobile experience.
Build a clear onboarding flow for personalization.
Support daily habit-building through tasks and reminders.
Make herb and plant discovery simple through search, filters, and recommendations.
Allow users to save favorite plants and recipes.
Provide seasonal and location-based wellness updates.
Create a soft, nature-inspired visual system.

User Flow

The user flow was designed to be calm and intuitive.
The journey begins with a splash screen, sign-up or sign-in, onboarding, and an optional intro guide. After that, users land on the Home screen, where they can access the main sections of the app.
The structure helps users move from learning to action: discover a herb, understand its benefits, save it, and turn it into a daily wellness task.

Onboarding

The onboarding flow was designed to personalize the app from the first interaction.
Users can define:
Why they joined Harmony Habits
Their wellness goals
Their preferred experience
Whether they want daily suggestions
Location-based guidance preferences
The onboarding makes the product feel more personal and helps the app recommend relevant herbs, rituals, and seasonal updates.
Example goal categories include: Emotional balance, Better sleep, Natural energy, Daily grounding, Mental clarity, Self-connection, Skin support, Gut health, Immune strength, Nervous system support.

Guide for Beginners

A quick walkthrough was added to help new users understand the app without feeling lost.
The guide explains how to use the bottom navigation, explore herbs, open the calendar, create tasks, save favorites, and follow daily suggestions.
