‘Smartphine': Supporting students' well-being according to their calendar and mood

Smartphones have become devices of choice for conducting studies on health and well-being, especially among young people. When accessing higher education, students frequently experience significant challenges, ranging from adapting to new situations and new social relations to heavier workload than in previous levels of education, short deadlines, teamwork assignments and so on. In this paper we present the results of three studies examining students' well-being and propose a mobile application that acts as a complement to a successful tutoring project deployed at our University over the last four years. The app allows the student to keep their schedules and deadlines in one place while integrating a virtual tutor features. By using both, the events from the student's calendar and his or her mood indicators, the app sends notifications accordingly. These notifications range from motivational phrases to time management guidelines and relaxation tips.
