An app which helps teenagers (and their parents) with chronic heart diseases to take responsibility for their own health and their lunchboxes.
Children with chronic diseases have a higher chance of developing cardiac issues when growing up due to a multitude of factors, such as insufficient movement and sensitivity to unhealthy diets. And therefore, together with the Wageningen University (WUR), University Medical Center Utrecht (UMCU), and TU/e, a project was initiated to research and develop a solution.
The concept and prototype were developed with a highly theoretical and user-centered design approach, involving vast quantities of experts, stakeholders, and partners. Methods used to develop the concept are based on the double diamond and the Spiral SDLC Model. With the help of persuasive design, elements were designed for the app to encourage healthy habit building. ChefPrep offers families a framework to support and build healthy habits so that in the end, life can be enjoyed to the fullest.
