People with Aspergers’ syndrome face daily challenges because unfamiliar situations, places and people make them uncomfortable and nervous. Social life and daily activities can be truly overwhelming. That is where Remories can help. Based on principles of Narrative Therapy, Remories is a mobile companion that records, stores and surfaces positive memories of past experiences. It encourages users to work on their self-defined goals and provides timely recommendations based on users’ current well-beings. Memories are used as a motivator and coping mechanism to overcome negative thinking.
