Active Kid is a forward-thinking startup focused on developing innovative solutions to promote physical activity and healthy habits among children. With a mission to combat the sedentary lifestyle associated with increased screen time, they aim to create engaging and interactive experiences that encourage movement and well-being in young users.

The challenge

Our client was looking to create an MVP of an app that would turn screen time into physical activity time. Plenty of interactive content would be available for a child with motion tracking in real-time with the help of a device camera. Smart recommendations based on a child's daily schedule would help one keep organized, follow daily routines, and encourage physical activities in a child-friendly way.

Collaboration goal

To develop an MVP of a mobile application that transforms screen time into active time for children, promoting physical activity and healthy habits.
