This Android app is based on the Remember to smile - design of a mobile affective technology to help promote individual happiness through smiling paper by George Moore, Leo Galway and Mark Donnelly, which theorizes that more frequent genuine smiling can substantially improve happiness. With technology improving over the years, it has been made possible to measure an individual's happiness through Affective Computing, which allows a more objective evaluation than more traditional methods, such as questionnaires.
Not only is pursuing happiness deeply integrated into our roots, it has also been proven that increased happiness is associated with higher productivity, well-being and quality of life, prompting well known organizations such as the World Health Organization to support happiness as an important factor to an individual's overall health.
