UI does RX for depression

Crowdsourcing depression seems like an interesting idea but a new app called Koko takes it to another level. Allowing a closed community to weigh in on personal issues to reframe a problem is a great idea to help depressed people feel less alone.

The bigger challenge was whittling down the on boarding tutorial to a couple of frames. Here's where graphic, simple UI steps in. By leveraging Rorschach blots to convey the idea that reframing is key to perspective, the app allows people to use community to work through problems and show  how individuals can see a problem in many different ways.

Apps do make life easier. This time on a deeper level.
