The Task
The Task
Children as young as 9 years old are vulnerable to online gambling due to brain immaturity and lack of proper guidance. The challenge was to convince parents to act early by educating themselves and actively protecting their children from gambling risks.
The Approach
I designed React to protect children before problems start, by blocking exposure, sending real-time alerts, and empowering parents with simple educational tools.
The goal was clear, make it easy, fast, and effective for any parent to keep their child safe online.

User Flow
User Flow
React’s user flow is simple: parents create an account, activate monitoring, and receive real-time alerts if gambling content appears. From there, they can review alerts, block risks, or access educational tools, all designed to make protection quick and easy.

Solution
React provides easy-to-understand educational tools that help parents learn about the risks of online gambling and how to talk to their children about it.
When a parent feels unprepared to explain gambling dangers, React gives them the knowledge and confidence to start that conversation and guide their child with clarity and care.
Final thoughts
My final thoughts on React — it was a difficult yet rewarding challenge. Designing for parents who wanted a simple way to protect their children meant constantly balancing modern tools with clear, accessible design. I stayed focused on their needs throughout, always aiming to make something that feels helpful, not overwhelming. Looking back, I would spend more time on research to better understand their concerns from the start. This project taught me how powerful empathy is in design, and I’d love to keep improving React to make it even more intuitive and impactful.

Final thoughts
Salvem les Fotos was more than just a UX/UI challenge, it was a response to a real crisis, with real people behind every photo. Designing a tool to help volunteers and coordinators rescue and return damaged memories required empathy, clarity, and strong collaboration across disciplines. The result was a mobile-first, user-friendly platform that brought order to chaos and made a complex process manageable. This project deepened my belief in design as a force for good One that, when thoughtfully applied, can make even the most emotional and difficult tasks feel a little more human, and a little more hopeful.
