An Amazing App & Project, 1 improvement
I have been absolutely loving this app, from the beginning the tone and language used is welcoming, warm, supportive and encouraging. I am a designer myself and I find the majority of apps are functional but devoid of character and this app maintains the ease of use (and even facilitates it) with a lot of character that makes reporting my feelings fun even when I’m not feeling like anything would be fun, the playfulness and abstraction in no way takes away from the experience and the human descriptions in the videos are so calm and purely helpful that they are not threatening the way self-improvement videos can be. They don’t make me feel bad for not having done a suggestion, just optimistic that I can see benefits from trying it.
My main point of improvement is that I have input a sizable number of check-ins on my iPad and others on my iPhone and although the two apps appear to be sharing the same identifier they don’t compile the data to get the full picture and that would be a huge improvement for me since I can’t easily compare the times that I am using one or the other. I looked for a way to export my data and import it to the other device(the long route) but I didn’t find anything, ultimately the best solution would be automatic sync. Keep up the great work!

Simple but effective
I love love this app. I share it with my friends and family. I love the ease - 4 choices to start, definitions of each emotion, and minimal typing the whole way. Unless you want to type a description of your moment, all aspects that are tracked are pre labeled buttons like “home” “mom” and “resting.” Those buttons are customizable and you can delete ones that dont apply to you. Navigating the emotion page is so user friendly, hope it doesnt change. I also appreciate how you dont need to log certain things like what you were doing, or how much exercise you had. The exercise log is very discreet for those of us who are sensitive to even small pressures to work out.
My only suggestion is to be able to go back and edit the time of day an entry is. Sometimes when I am working, I want to log my emotions. I cant because Im not allowed to have my phone on me, but I want to be able to log it after work and then edit the time so it reflects when that emotion happened. I think that same idea could be helpful in a variety of situations, like not wanting to make an entry around certain people, not realizing how you were feeling until later, etc

Good, just missing some complexity
I am autistic and can struggle with labeling emotions in the moment, so this is a good way to center myself with that. However, I feel like there should be an option for a secondary emotion that you can add if there is one or if a feeling is more complex. Like if you’re feeling content and accepted in a moment and at the same time sad for all the time you didn’t get that. Or relaxed and unfocused in the moment and having a waxing and waning anxiety about the fact that that will come back to haunt you, but deciding not to care. Feelings are often more than one thing and only by taking in the whole picture can you get a full understanding of them. Heck, even with the options that are there, the fact that some form of grief isn’t an option is kinda wild even though that is it’s own thing? Or that there’s a humiliated option but not an embarrassed one? Or even like infatuated, flirty, flattered, romantic, or aroused, which is a spectrum of emotion that could technically fall under “compassionate” or “ecstatic” or something like that, but are also their own thing? Overall I think is this a fantastic starting point and I hope in the future they build in more features to capture a fuller range of the human emotional experience, creating a more precise tool for the people who use it.
Newtonswdc,
Needs a notes EXPORT feature.
No journaling app is complete without an export feature that sends our text entry data to a standard format like PDF, TXT or RTF. ** ** Because all our notes, epiphanies, realizations, etc, are stored on the DEVICE and not on their servers if something happens to the device or to the app, we’re out of luck and all our notes may DISAPPEAR. What’s a worse way to make a person feel lost, confused, and miserable than to realize an entire year’s worth of journal entries is GONE FOREVER because they dropped their phone or the app crashed unexpectedly? ** In fact, just now I was leaving a review through the app and the app FROZE on me. Thankfully no other data was lost this time but I think I’m making my point. ** I’m not saying the developers should find a way to store all the photos and audio recordings, that would be too cumbersome, just a way to store the date and time and all the notes we write for each entry and export that to a standard format like PDF, TEXT, and/or RTF. ** We should have multiple means of export like: Phone drive, email, Dropbox, etc. ** It would also be nice to include a feature that allows the ability to sync the data among multiple devices on a single Apple ID. I would be willing to pay extra for those export & sync features. ** Then the app would be perfect.
Kur0taku,
Life changing simplicity
Edit: this issue has finally been fixed! Now been able to access my old entries, make new ones and keep it all backed up 🤩
This is honestly meant to be a 5-star review because this app has done so much to help me connect with myself and my loved ones in the 3 or so months I’ve used it. An intuitive premise that is efficiently executed, I’ve found my experience using this to not only be really empowering, but also an essential aid in keeping myself regular with mental health check-ins - not to mention vastly expanding my vocabulary and toolset to express and explore difficult experiences and emotions. Ultimately, I’d gladly revise my star rating as soon as I get this one bug worked out - my app has been crashing on startup every time I’ve attempted to use it since the last update, and unfortunately I wasn’t aware if/that iCloud sync had been available when I started using it. I’d love it if I could regain access to the app without having to lose the previous data I’ve accumulated, so fingers crossed that this gets noticed 🤞🏾

Coco bakery,
Absolutely love this app
wow, I never write reviews for apps but I just love this app so much. Its helped me drastically get in touch with my feelings, i've been able to become more mindful, as well as increase the joy in my life. I love the features like being able take a picture, the color coordination, and the analysis option where we can examine our feelings over time. I also loved the little videos in the beginning, i found them very helpful. Generally I love this app, I use it alot and its improved my life and my relationships with the people around me.
If I could offer a suggestion it would be to configure a way to add more specific feelings. Sometimes i feel a very specific emotion and Im unable to properly document it. Being able to see the different emotions is extremely helpful though. Sometimes I also feel alot of different emotions all at once. I might just be a specific audience but those would be cool. Thank you for creating such a great app and allowing us to use it for free!
All Love,
Evie

psychicdaydreams,
My vocabulary is too big
Sometimes I'm avoidant, bummed, spiraling, distracted, on edge, aroused, verklempt. (Not an exhaustive list.) But if I'm feeling any of those things and using this app, I can't accurately describe... how I feel. Which makes me feel frustrated. At least if I ever get "canceled" I have an entry for that 🙄
I disagree with the categorization of some of the emotions as "pleasant/unpleasant," such as fragile (should be unpleasant), astonished (it depends), and impassioned/passionate (again, it depends). I also feel like it's in general missing the ability to clearly represent singular emotions that are by definition not clearly one or the other, such as bittersweet.
On a UX level, I didn't find it intuitive that emotions not listed on the grid would be available in search, and I didn't realize the plus allowed you to add a second emotion for a good week.
I've also kept experiencing this one annoying thing with trying to enter emotions where as soon as I tap away from the search bar, it autocorrects, and so the first few letters of whatever I was searching for changes to something else, so I have to go back and type it in again.

Danie728,
I’ve needed this my whole life
Wow. Without knowing it, I’ve truly needed something like this to help me identify my emotions. I struggle to identify emotions and differentiate them. Most of the time I can’t make sense of how I am feeling. This causes me confusion and frustration and a lot of self critique. I have no idea how I stumbled upon this app, but I’m so glad I did. From the initial pick of the color, identifying my energy levels- this helps me narrow it down. I find the word that I feel best fits it and then read the description. This helps me ask myself “does that feel right?” often I need to adjust and read surrounding words but I always find something close enough (my suggestion in the search is maybe somehow provide alternatives with synonyms). With time I do feel like I am getting better at identifying what I feel in a moment myself and further to notice how often an emotion may swing within minutes and being able to document that always feels amazing.
dancingbrook,
Support?
Couldn’t find a way to share these thoughts: 1) I saw a review, asking to be able to change the time entries, so one could log how they’re feeling at an earlier time, but I did not see the suggestion implemented in the version log, even though the response to review suggested developer would make that change. (Update: it seems the change was implemented but wasn’t listed in the version history) 2) When setting up the app initially, I was given 4 times of day to check in; the labels on these times didn’t make sense for my way of thinking. I’d like to be able to check in when I wake up, late morning, mid afternoon, and in the evening. These times are based on my recollection of significant periods of time where I am aware of significant mood shifts, times of acute awareness. The labels offered, morning afternoon, evening and evening didn’t seem right. 3) Selecting one mood feels too constrained; I certainly feel more than one mood at a time. 4) It needs a lock, so someone using my phone isn’t able to access my info.
Envy!!,
Almost Perfect
Other than one or two little things I absolutely love this app, it’s the only mood tracker i’ve been able to use consistently. One, I wish that you could write in your own emotions. Sometimes I know exactly what I’m feeling and it’s a little disappointing when I can’t track the feeling I have in mind. Second, I’m not a huge fan of how the exercise and sleep tracking works at the moment. I don’t think that exercise minutes should automatically apply to all the entries earlier in the day. It’s a little frustrating when I’m trying to track how exercise affects my mood and I can’t get an accurate picture of that because when I worked out at 5pm, the app applied that to all my emotions earlier in the day. The same thing goes for sleep. I think that automatically having exercise and sleep apply for the rest of the day makes sense, but you should have the option to change it, and have each entry be independent of everything that came before it.
