Problem

Problem

Most habit apps overwhelm people with streaks, badges, and constant notifications. Instead of building calm routines, users end up anxious about breaking a chain. Aura needed to reframe habit-building around gentle progress rather than pressure.

Process

Process

I started with journey mapping and a week of paper prototypes, then moved into SwiftUI for rapid, on-device iteration. Motion and haptics were tuned last so every interaction feels soft and deliberate.
