Congratulations to the winner of the Ideas Project Wellness Challenge!

Written by Minna and Johanna, Nokia Wellness Diary Team

Last week the Ideas Project challenge for Wellness Diary ended. In the challenge we asked for your ideas on how mobile technologies can improve our wellbeing and health.  We received tons of exciting new ideas! We are pleased to announce our Wellness Challenge winner:

Challenging Friends by Otto Kuisma.

The catch in this idea is to challenge your friends to exercise, quit smoking etc. by creating groups and inviting friends to accept different challenges through mobile devices. The winner will be awarded with one of Nokia’s latest devices, the Nokia C7. Congratulations Otto!

In addition to the challenge winner, we’re also happy to announce two honourable mentions:

Water consumption monitor by Christian Bersani 

Periods Monitor for Wellness Diary by Anna Backman

We got both new ideas and improvement suggestions to current application. The ideas were evaluated based on their feasibility and relevance for health and wellness oriented consumers.  Some ideas included features that are already available or coming soon.  Stay tuned for information on development of Wellness Diary.

Here is a summary of the results of the challenge and the ideas we got: Most of the pitched ideas were related to monitoring health and wellness, followed by ideas related to sports and exercise, food and nutrition, and weight management.  Check the graph for details:

Thank you all for participation and congratulations to the winner!
