LifeOS

I worked on expanding LifeOS beyond the homescreen by building a Box Breather app, a guided breathing window designed to help users regulate their nervous system through simple visual timing.

Alongside this, I added a Help button with mental health hotlines to make the experience more supportive and accessible, giving users gentle guidance.

I also introduced a Journal feature, allowing users to capture thoughts directly within emotion windows. Entries are stored locally, creating a personal timeline that connects reflections with the feelings that prompted them.

I added a Feelings button to make the experience more intentional and human. Instead of just interacting with aesthetic elements, users can now actively check in with themselves. When clicked, the button opens a small emotional interface, like launching an messaging app for your inner world where you can select how you’re feeling and receive gentle prompts or affirmations in response.

I’ve started bringing LifeOS to life by designing its homescreen—the central hub where users interact with their emotions like apps.

Building this homescreen involved balancing visual familiarity with emotional safety, making it intuitive yet gentle. I’m experimenting with icon designs, color palettes, and subtle animations that convey feelings without overwhelming the user.

LifeOS is becoming a place where users can explore their inner life in a digital space that feels both familiar and safe.
