Symptoms of depression are common and have a significant impact on people's daily lives and their surroundings. Lifestyle changes, such as increased physical activity, a healthy diet, or social interactions, can help improve these symptoms.

Therefore, we have developed an app and aim to investigate whether this app can help individuals experiencing depressive symptoms.
