To create lasting behavioral change, we went beyond simple reminders and delved into the psychology of habit formation. By leveraging the extended habit loop framework, Habita guides users through a structured habit-building process that makes healthy routines second nature. This approach ensures that managing medication becomes effortless, intuitive, and seamlessly integrated into daily life.
1. Triggers: setting off routines with the right triggers:
Habita links medication intake to daily habits, like morning coffee or brushing teeth, making adherence effortless.
2. Motivation: keeping up the drive with gamification:
A challenge-based system keeps users engaged, starting with simple goals and gradually increasing difficulty. This sense of progress fosters long-term adherence.
3. Ability/response: minimizing user effort with smooth interactions:
Logging medication is effortless with a one-tap system, reducing cognitive load and making adherence easy—even for multiple prescriptions.
4. Accomplishment and rewards: supporting habit formation with rewards:
The app provides instant feedback, and structured levels reinforce consistency. Users unlock valuable health insights as they progress, keeping them informed and motivated.
