Case Study: University of Montreal improves anti-bullying support for youth with Sidekick Interactive’s +Fort app

University of Montreal simplifies anti-bullying app with Sidekick, reducing features to essentials

The University of Montreal's research center had developed an anti-bullying mental health app, but the tool was not intuitive and suffered from technical problems like crashes and bugs. They partnered with Sidekick to overcome these challenges and improve the user experience for young victims of bullying.

Sidekick developed a brand-new native app that streamlined the features to make it more intuitive and effective. They also implemented push notifications for reminders to better engage users. The result was a high-performance application that met the expectations of its young audience, with the University of Montreal researcher noting Sidekick's team was open, respectful, and patient throughout the co-creation process.
