I got pregnant at 15 and felt depressed and alone. Learning about my options and telling my mum helped. I got my confidence back and now I'm back at school.
Headspace
Free. Offers In-App Purchases.
Young adult feedback
Highly certified app with very entertaining components relatable across multiple types of populations such as students and children. Although it is high quality with information and interactiveness, I would not necessarily pay for the app and in some cases I feel if students or children were to use the app without their parent's knowing for personal uses it may be difficult for them to want to pay for some of the most beneficial features which are not for free.
Expert feedback
This Headspace app makes meditation simple! This app uses the principles of mindfulness meditation to help improve focus, mood and sleep while working to reduce anxiety and stress. The free version allows users to 10-session trial before needing to subscribe to have access to a wider variety of sessions and programs. The downfall is that the subscription can be expensive.

Allows users to set and monitor the number/length of time they would like to use their phone each day.
Expert feedback
This app sets out to help users find phone/life balance by monitoring and tracking phone usage. It has a clean and simple design and while not designed to be engaging, it may help curve phone usage by using reminders and highlighting patterns of use.

Sit With Us
Free
Young adult feedback
Encourages kids to create lunch events with people they know (from school or people around them etc) so that no one ever needs to sit alone at lunch. Good concept for an app - theoretically though, it could be misused.
Expert feedback
Sit With Us promotes inclusion in schools by connecting students through organised lunches. A great concept, however only works well if others in your school have and use the app. There is an opportunity to become an ambassador and promote this app in your school community.
