(E)-Motions
summary
Uses AI images created with Microsoft Designer and shows that surprise features like the Edge surf game auto-launching offline raise delight, while a restaurant reservation app that drops timers and fails creates real-world anxiety and missed dinners. Demonstrates how persistent reminders from Facebook/Google resurface ex-relationships, how hard deadlines and exclamation marks spike stress, and how an undo-consistent sandbox and clear progress bars reduce panic. Recommends user panels and measured emotion tests to validate changes.
