Smappy vs BeHerd

Did you know? Smiling produces endorphins which are the chemicals responsible for making us feel happy and reducing stress levels. Fake smiling has been shown to work as well as real smiling in producing endorphins as the brain cannot differentiate between the two. Studies have shown you can get many other benefits from smiling too such as boosted immune system, lower blood pressure, helps you stay positive to reduce anxiety and can even prolong your life. What is Smappy? Smappy is a first of its kind app that’s inspired by a practice called Laughing Yoga (Hasyayoga), which is an exercise involving prolonged voluntary laughter to help promote real and contagious laughter. Smappy aims to try and improve your mood by providing games and challenges controlled by your smile in an augmented reality setting using 3D characters. Features include: - Play games using facial recognition and AR that are designed to get you smiling. - Each smile performed when playing games is tracked so you can see how long you have smiled for. - Track your mood before and after playing a game to see how it changes your mood and also analyse your overall mood throughout the day/week/month or all time. - Compete against yourself to beat your personal records for each game. - Control the 3D character using facial tracking (Please note: Full facial tracking is currently only available on devices with a TrueDepth camera or A12 Bionic chip (with iOS 14)) - Try and complete daily challenges for a target smile time - Collect medals by completing challenges and achievements - No login required! - All data is stored on iCloud. So if you download the app on another device logged into the same iCloud it will sync overall data - Secure your data by requiring FaceID/TouchID when opening the app - Receive notification prompts to remind you to smile throughout the day and set how often you'd like to receive them - Dark Mode compatible + Stay tuned for more games and features Smappy Pro: Improve your experience by upgrading to Smappy Pro, which provides unlimited access to all features and removes adverts.

If you’re a teen and struggling, you’re not alone. - 60% of students experience depression but are untreated? - 32% of students will have an anxiety disorder at some point. - 13.3% of students will suffer a major depressive disorder in the next year. You shouldn’t feel alone. More people want to help than you realize: friends, family, neighbors, public officials, school staff, social workers, therapists, and more. That’s why we created BeHerd. To give you a voice and the platform to amplify it. To change the way you think about asking for help. To connect you with people who want to and are willing to listen—so you can be heard! Here's how it works... CHECK-IN: Answer quick, daily prompts to self assess mood. Or use the journal feature to go deeper and express more. CONNECT: Choose who to share check-in updates with and what updates they will receive. BE HEARD: Share updates with family, friends, and/or other support systems—your “herd.” Not a teen? BeHerd's still for you. Being part of a herd provides visibility into how the people you care most about are feeling. And by completing and sharing your daily check-ins with those who invite you to support them, you promote more honest, open communication. Features include: - Daily Mood Check-In (quick and easy to complete) - Word Dump (journal and jot...archive or destroy) - Herd (invite, grow, and share) - Listen In (how are others doing...today and over time) - Self Tracker (how are you doing...today and over time) - Resources (coming soon) - Affirmations (coming soon) MEDICAL DISCLAIMER The BeHerd app is designed for connecting with friends, sharing experiences, and building relationships.
