(0 reviews) What does the app do?
This is a simple app designed to rate and track mood daily. Users can rate their mood in 6 categories: anxiety, depression, head injury, post-traumatic stress, stress and general well-being, or create their own category. Each category has a list of feelings such as angry, numb, lonely, that users rate using a sliding scale. Users can record notes about important events and stressors and set up reminders for mood rating. The app provides results as a graph or as reports for sharing with others. For a detailed review, see Reviews.

PROS |
CONS |
|---|---|
|
✔ A simple app that is mostly easy to use ✔ Instructions provided (although these are wordy)
|
✘ Some features such as creating a new rating scale and adding notes are not easy to find ✘ Contact details for support organisations are U.S.-based ✘ App is very basic with no education or self-help component ✘ No safety feature or alert when users select very negative emotions/moods. |
Privacy and security
The app has an option with the app setting to turn on password protection. No registration or user account is required to use the app. The app does not appear to have a privacy policy so it is unclear what happens to personal information entered via the app (mood ratings and notes).
