About the app

Grow Together is an app designed to enhance quality time for couples in a romantic relationship who are experiencing burnout, whether due to the pressures of life or the natural wear and tear that sometimes happen in relationships.
 

The app is based on the psychological theory of "Self-Expansion." it refers to the process of positive growth and broadening a person’s self-perception by acquiring new experiences, skills, perspectives, or resources. This concept is rooted in the idea that humans have an innate motivation to expand their understanding of themselves and the world around them.
 

The self-expansion model suggests that the drive to expand one’s self-concept is a basic human motivation. Self-expansion involves integrating elements from external experiences or relationships into a person’s identity, thus enhancing self-efficacy, knowledge, and personal growth.

The purpose of the app is to invite couples to enrich their quality time with activities based on interests they have indicated in a questionnaire that they wish to experience.
 

The app matches their answers and suggests activities that encourage couples to step out of their comfort zone and expand themselves and their relationship in an optimal way.
