Design background & Flow chart

Design background:
The following prototype of this App is a concept of a possible design solution for my MRP, which is not a real exist App. These prototypes shows some of my phased work up to now.
I named this App as Whales. The reason why I chose whales as design inspiration is that whales are social animals in the ocean, They can usually give a hand to their companions when they ask for help, furthermore, they are empathic animals and can be influenced by the emotions of other peers. That’s really inspired me because Chinese teenagers need the same kind of group to help each other. so I named the App according to this idea. The Logo of this App is composed of two whales ‘tails in blue and light red. The first means is that users can find like-minded partners in the App, the second means is that users could find their inner sense of belonging and recognize their inner self.
The interface style & main function: The App interfaces are relatively simple and the overall style is flat. The main functions are divided into three points:
- Users can enter a “whales” group, such like game group and meditation group and so on. Each group will have a manager and users can communicate with each other in these groups.
- Users can follow the people they are interested in on the main page, and they can also publish contents.
- Users can enter some training on their personal page, such as sleeping aid concert hall, expert consultation, graffiti room, etc
