About HelloSmile

How It All Started

HelloSmile was born from a simple yet powerful observation: people who smile more tend to lead happier, more fulfilling lives. Our founder, after studying the psychological benefits of smiling for years, wanted to create a tool that would help people incorporate this simple practice into their daily routine.

Launched in 2025, HelloSmile combines cutting-edge facial recognition technology with gamification elements to make daily smile practice engaging and rewarding. Our app uses Google ML Kit to detect genuine smiles, ensuring that users are actually practicing effective facial expressions that can trigger positive neurological responses.

What started as a small project has grown into a movement, with thousands of users reporting significant improvements in their mood, social interactions, and overall quality of life after just a few weeks of consistent practice.

Our Mission

At HelloSmile, we believe that happiness should be accessible to everyone. Our mission is to help millions of people worldwide transform their lives through the simple, scientifically-backed practice of daily smiling.
