Project Summary

Problem Identified

The outbreak of the pandemic itself and the subsequent containment measures have taken a toll on the mental health of individuals. People are frustrated and unhappy for being forced to stay at home. With the increasing duration of lockdown, they are losing their patience, and most importantly it’s affecting their mental health which leads to problems in their daily life. We have always known that “Prevention is better than cure”.

Design Innovation

So we thought of an app that will keep people engaged during difficult times. We thought if we could design an app that will help them when they get bored, make them happy when they are sad, can motivate them when feeling low, and will provide relief from stress when they feel overworked to reduce some amount of mental health cases happening around us. Treating a patient who is suffering from illness is more difficult than treating a person who is going to be ill. The effectiveness of the app will result in the creation of a positive atmosphere which will help people to prepare themselves for the next wave.

Impact On The Society

If the scenario continues, people are forced to stay at home. Maitri could help people in these times by providing them a single platform where they can connect, attend events, listen to the show of their choice, and of course by playing different games with their friends and family to refresh the mood. Here games can be ice-breakers between strangers and with help of event feature people will be able to join the event of their choice and organize events that can provide a medium to income some money. This is a perfect app that is designed to keep people happy and get them ready for the next wave.
