Feedback from the Judges:
This app is a great concept. It has potential to make a big difference to people needing mental health assistance who might find it easier to chat with someone over an app or on a phone call rather than face-to-face. It might help them to feel safe and open up more to a counselor. Great job!
It's an important topic, and too many people are lost because they have nowhere to turn to. I think an app like this could literally save lives. Only thing I would suggest is to avoid picking a diagnosis. Users may overestimate/think (or under) about what they have. It's better to ask open-ended questions about how they are feeling at the moment, and it would point them to a correct resource as they may think they have anxiety, but in reality, they are suffering from depression or ED and may miss out on getting the help they need. Overall great approach.
