## What is 5 and Go!?

Keeping in touch with friends can be tough. We make it easier. 5 and Go! uses a science backed approach to make you feel great in 5 min a day. 

The two strongest predictors of happiness are time spent with friends/family and time interacting with others. 5 and Go! helps you increase both. Just as tracking steps naturally increases walking, tracking your in-person and meaningful interactions with 5 and Go! leads to more frequent connections—improving your mood, mental health, and physical wellbeing.

OUR FEATURES:

CONNECTION ORBIT
• The Connection Orbit helps you connect and keep in touch each week with those who matter most to you. It’s like that list of friends that you’ve been meaning to reach out to, but with fun, animated visualizations that provide motivation to help you connect, and then reward you for doing so.

DAILY CHALLENGES
• Boost your mood and get your daily dose of meaningful social connection by playing a Daily challenge, anywhere, anytime. 
• Right Now Daily Challenges allow you to strengthen your connections with friends and family right from your phone - plan a lunch date, send a note of gratitude to a family member, or just check in and chat with a friend. Reaching out to friends regularly is important for your social connection and well-being.
• Your World Daily Challenges have you meet up with friends in the real world - play a game, go on an adventure, come up with a new dance move. Even brief in-person interactions with friends and loved ones can make us feel good for a long time.
• Wider World Daily Challenges help you put kindness and joy into the world as you connect with your wider community and the world around you - compliment a stranger, thank a service worker, smile at people you pass. Not only will these challenges make you and the people you interact with feel great, but they are critical for the health of communities and societies.
• After each challenge, record your experience and how you’re feeling in your private journal.

TRACK YOUR SOCIAL FITNESS
• Our Social Fitness Tracker is an activity tracker for your fun social interactions each day. 
• Streaks, awards, and the calendar help you build positive daily habits of social connection.

Today’s 5 and Go! Daily Challenge encouraged me to catch up with my friend over a mountain of pancakes, it’s these simple memories that stay with you :)

### 5/5 — Makes me SO happy!

*2024-05-20*

This app is not only super fun, but it also makes you feel so good! I love the daily challenges - which only take a couple minutes - but wow! I really get a boost when I connect with people in this way. I also love to do the daily challenges with my 6 year old son as a way to teach him about gratitude and appreciation. 5&Go offers such a quick, fun, easy way to connect with people, be kind and feel happy. I wish I could give 10 stars!

### 5/5 — New kind of Daily Practice

*2024-04-07*

The 3 daily prompts give me 3 different avenues of intention each day. I don’t always get to all three but at least one a day speaks to me or fits into my regular routine. It brightens my day and I feel good that it is flexing my social muscles. I have felt really rusty coming out of the pandemic and this has really helped.

### 5/5 — Awesome new game!

*2023-09-10*

This is a really cool new game. Fun way to add something to your day and get out. Highly recommend giving it a try.
