We see a lot of people around us suffering from anxiety and depression. They wanted to share it with other people, and give them a tool to help overcome life’s problems. It helped them both to go through breakups, decide to quit jobs they didn’t like, and deal with anxiety. The idea of Scribe was born when Henry and his co-founder Jonathan realized how much value they got out of years spent journaling. Scribe – Helping People Through Journaling The podcast is also available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. You’re welcome to listen to the audio interview with Henry as well. We talked with Henry Latham, Head of Product at Scribe, who introduced us to the app and explained the design process behind it. Its approach is different though, focusing more on giving the user an overview of his/her emotions. This device-addiction has made us less aware of the physical world than we used to be.Ī resurgence of mindfulness is trying to address that, with more and more apps (like The Fabulous) popping up, designed to help us be more present in daily life.Ī major category of these are journaling apps, and Scribe is one of them. On the other, we became addicted to being connected. On the one hand, we got easy access to our friends, navigation, transportation, and other useful information. When smartphones took off after the iPhone was introduced, we didn’t yet know how much of an impact they would come to have on our lives. – Interview with Henry Latham from journal app Scribe
