TEN SECONDS, NO HOMEWORK
One word. Choose its color. Done.
Start with one word and place it on a color tile you choose. There is no separate mood-label step. Add a note, photo, or another moment only if it helps. This is a synthetic example; nothing here is saved or sent.

ON-DEVICE REVIEW
See the words you kept.
In the current app, your word stays visible on the color tile you choose. Color is a personal visual choice, not a separate mood label or score.
These examples are synthetic, not real user activity. Color choices are not diagnoses or health interpretations.
PRIVATE BY BOUNDARY, NOT BY SLOGAN
Your journal stays on this device by default.
Optional Face ID interface lock
Face ID, Touch ID, or the device passcode can cover the app interface. This is an interface lock—not storage encryption.
Sharing is explicit
The preview lists every word and note before sharing. Photos are excluded from links; recipients confirm before importing.
No in-app analytics or tracking SDKs
The App has no advertising identifier, attribution SDK, analytics SDK, or behavioral profile. This public website counts aggregate page views, App Store clicks, and fixed QR redirects to the U.S. App Store without a persistent browser identifier; a QR redirect is not a download count. It never receives journal content.
MADE TO FIT YOU

System, light, and dark appearance; Larger Text; VoiceOver labels; Reduce Motion; high contrast; 44-point controls; and a focused one-word check-in with optional details.
