Increase Your Happiness With This Android App

Today, on blue Monday of 2021, I decided to release my Android application that is aimed to increased people happiness of a few percent.

Is it possible?

I first had to analyse what makes people unhappy or less happy. Through many readings and observations, it seems that happiness isn’t something that you can’t have influence on or something only related on how much money you own. By changing how you think, being more mindful or changing your actions or reactions to events, you can increase your happiness. That’s when I realized that I could write an Android app that could help people be happier.

Welcome to Happy Quotes Notifications

Happy Quotes Notifications is a free Android app that will send you from time to time notifications to remind you to have positive thoughts or do things that will make you happier during the day.

You can decide if you want a few or a lot of notifications during the day. Depending on the day of the week or the hour, different types of notifications are shown. Categories are happiness (e.g. Let go of what you can’t change), action (e.g. Smile), health (e.g. Take once the stairs), life (e.g. Life is a one time offer, use it well). Notifications only comes when you’ll look at your phone in order not to disturb you.

How does it work?

Choose the Notification Frequency

When you start the application, you’ll have the choice between a few or more notifications between the day.

Click on Details to see about how many notifications you may see during the day.

When you’ve decided which one to try, click on the start button and that’s it.

I would advice to try Max Happiness for 1 week and then move to Happy program.

Receive Notifications Like This One During The Day

From time to time then during the day, you will see some notifications like this on your phone.

You can click on it and it will show you a screen with the text that you can share with friends and family.
