A personal starting point
Onboarding asks for a small number of preferences and an initial routine. Each question explains how the answer changes the experience. The user can review the choice and begin without completing a long profile.

The brief
A product with
a clear purpose.
Kenko is a mobile product study for people who want a manageable daily routine. Sage, ivory, and small coral accents create a calm interface, while the screen hierarchy gives one useful next action prominence. The product direction supports personal habit tracking; it does not offer diagnosis, treatment, or claims about health outcomes.
Who it is for
People building everyday habits who need lightweight planning and feedback without an overwhelming dashboard.
The challenge
Habit applications can ask for too much setup, reward activity without context, or make a missed day feel like failure. Kenko explores a smaller set of screens that explain the current routine and let the user adjust it. The challenge is to make progress understandable while respecting different schedules and levels of participation.
- Make the first routine easy to define.
- Give the daily screen one clear priority.
- Let people adjust reminders and participation.
- Explain progress with plain language.
The experience
Useful choices.
A coherent interface.
A considered daily view
Routine cards show the intended action, its current state, and the next useful control. A simple week view provides context without competing with the main task. Missed actions can be rescheduled or left incomplete without misleading feedback.
Progress with perspective
The progress screen distinguishes completed activities from plans and allows a user to review their own pattern. Reminder settings are accessible from the same context, with clear choices about timing and notifications.
The user journey
From context
to the next action.
Choose a routine
The user selects a manageable activity and reviews when it should appear. They see a preview of the daily screen before confirming the plan.
Complete or adjust
The daily view offers an understandable action and feedback. If the plan no longer fits, changing it is a normal part of the journey.
Review the pattern
The user can look back at recorded participation, update reminders, and choose the next routine without a claim that the app has measured wellbeing.
Delivery thinking
The decisions
behind the screens.
Proposed implementation direction
A proposed mobile build would define local state, account synchronization if needed, and notification permissions separately.
Reminder timing and stored routine data need review across time zones, offline use, and device changes.
Accessibility checks would include text scaling, touch targets, focus order, and reduced-motion preferences.
A focused first scope
- Routine onboarding
- Daily activity and week view
- Progress and reminder settings
- Offline and empty-state concepts
What to validate
Questions a working
product must answer.
This study establishes a reviewable design direction. A production project would test the selected journey with representative users, realistic data, and agreed acceptance criteria. These questions define the next review without implying results have already been measured.
- 01Can someone create and change a routine without coaching?
- 02Is the meaning of completed, skipped, and planned activity clear?
- 03Do reminder choices remain understandable when permission is declined?
