Application Design to Release Stress

In this research, we design an application to release user’s daily stress. It is said that contemporary people are in a pretty stressful situation. For example, in recent years, we have suffered from difficulty to meet friends casually and enjoy talking with them to get rid of our daily stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In other words, the variation of ways of overcoming stress have been limited. In addition, people have deteriorated relationships with their family members because of the longer stay-at-home time than before. Health problems such as the onset of depression caused by the stress of the pandemic are also becoming more serious. Moreover, people are worrying of increasing the number of suicides. This situation is one of the problems that people consider it important in the society recently. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find solutions to such a situation. In this research, we develop the functions to cope with daily stress easily for the application of the smartphones that anyone has. We include functions in this application we suggest in this research. They are “vent mode”, which is a dynamic de-stressing method by words, “empathy mode”, which is a static de-stressing method, and “physical touch mode”, which is a dynamic de-stressing method that is accompanied with physical exercise. In addition, we design the application for de-stress in order to break through the stressful situation these days.
