Reducing stress between parents and children and fostering children's sense of self-esteem through habituation of children
(Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Tetsuya Shinoda), a family tech company that weaves happiness into the world with the family at the center, has changed the UI to make it easier for families to use its "Welldone! (Tetsuya Shinoda, Representative Director, Minato-ku, Tokyo) has reorganized functions not directly related to habit formation and changed the UI to make it simpler and easier for users to use the application, "Welldone!
Background
After launching the beta version in July 2021 as a support tool for nurturing children's non-cognitive skills, we have seriously considered many user interviews, user reviews, and requests from users in our inquiry form, and launched ver. 1.0 in August 2022 as an application for families and parents with children, focusing on a system that keeps children entertained and focused on building habits. We launched ver. 1.0 in August 2022 with greatly enhanced gamification functions, focusing on "a mechanism to keep children entertained" as an application for families and parents/children. As a result, the app's retention rate far exceeded the average for educational apps in Japan, and its reputation in the App Store and Google Play has also improved. In this update, we have made changes to the simple and easy-to-understand UI so that users can intuitively set up the application without hesitation when they first use Welldone!
Update Summary
New UI image (excerpt)
The following three major points have been reorganized and improved in this update.
1. unify project/routine/mission (PRM) into a routine
<Old Version
Project: A package (consisting of a routine and a mission) to achieve a goal.
Routine: Tasks to be performed daily to achieve goals
Mission: One-off tasks that occur irregularly within the project
↓arrow (mark or symbol)
<New version
Centralized to "routines" with extremely high frequency of use and eliminated project missions.
This allows you to register a routine without setting up a project or mission and immediately use Welldone!
2. creation of a "My Page" for each user ◆ 3.
The scattered "Notices," "Settings," "User's Guide," and other information have been integrated into "My Page" so that all necessary information can be found at a glance. Diary," which allows you to record your child's daily efforts with photos and text, can also be posted and viewed from My Page.
3. project store/external guest invite functionality eliminated ◆ 4.
With the Project/Routine/Mission (PRM) integration, the "Project Store," where project packages can be downloaded, has been discontinued.
The "Invite External Guests" feature was intended to allow parents, family members, sports club coaches, cram school teachers, etc. to share projects, monitor progress together, and offer advice in order to help children achieve their goals. However, the majority of users of Welldone! are using it for the purpose of habituation of their children, and we are concerned that the usability of this feature will be reduced by its existence.
With the discontinuation of these functions, we plan to offer a menu that allows users to select from a list of frequently used "routines" in the future.
[Future plans

Paid version to be released with more stages, items, stages, etc., including UI to enhance user experience
Plans to add easy-to-use process and results visualization features, such as routine lists and dashboards
