Write down the day

A mood, a few words, a photo. Once a day, that's all.

Open Journal at the bottom to leave something about today. Once a day, and that is all.

The Today screen in Journal. Tabs for Today, History, Calendar and Stats at the top, a row of five bear faces for the mood, and a field for a few words below
A mood, a few words, a photo. You don't have to fill all three.

What you write

Answer How was your day? by picking a bear’s face. Five of them: Great / Good / Okay / Meh / Rough.

Below that is A few words, and then Add photos. Tap Save when you’re done.

None of it is required. Picking one mood already counts as an entry. A diary this small is one you actually keep.

Looking back

There are four tabs at the top.

  • Today — write today’s entry
  • History — newest first; filter by mood or by entries with photos
  • Calendar — a mood color on each date
  • Stats — look back at a stretch of time

Stats

Pick a range from 1W 1M 3M 1Y All and you get a look back over it.

The Stats screen in Journal. A range switcher, four numbers for days recorded, streak, photos and memos, a line about the month, and a mood trend line
Choose a range and you get numbers, a sentence, and a line. A mood breakdown pie follows below.

Four things show up.

  • The counts for Days recorded / Streak / Photo / Memos
  • A sentence about that stretch (“A month with plenty of bright days.”, say)
  • Mood trend — daily moods as a line. It appears once you have two days.
  • Mood breakdown — how many days landed on each of the five
