Day to Day
Mood
Your inner weather, logged in one tap at day's end. Five bands, no journal required — and over time, a picture of how the days have actually felt.
The idea
Mood treats how you feel like weather: it passes through, it's worth noticing, and you don't have to explain it. At the end of the day you tap the band that fits — that's the whole practice. No prompts, no journaling, no reasons required.
There is no right answer and no streak. A run of bad days is information, not failure — the point of logging honestly is that the pattern becomes visible: which months carried you, and how the weeks really went versus how they felt in the moment.
The five bands
Every log is one of five values. Each band carries a short hint on its button, so you never have to wonder what a 3 means:
| Score | Band | On the button |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bad | A hard day |
| 2 | Low | Below your usual |
| 3 | Okay | Nothing special |
| 4 | Good | Above your usual |
| 5 | Great | A day at its best |
A day counts as a good day when it's logged Good or better. This one rule drives the Great and Good Days counter on the Mood page. Averages round to the nearest band, too — an average of 3.6 reads as Good.
Logging a day
You log in the Mood section of the Daily Log: one tap on the band that fits, tap the active band again (or Clear) to erase, and a Month history grid lets you back-fill past days. The Mood page is the read-only report.
Log the honest band, not the aspirational one. A week of Low entries isn't a bad grade — it's the earliest, cheapest signal you'll get that something needs attention.
Reading the Mood page
The Mood page turns those single taps into a picture. From the top:
| Card | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Average Mood | The hero. The headline is your average as a band name, with the detail underneath — e.g. "3.8 on the 1–5 scale, across 24 days logged." Beside it, a Great and Good Days counter tallies days rated Good or better, with their share of the year underneath. |
| Low and Bad Days | A count of days rated Low or Bad — below your usual or worse. |
| Most Common | Your most frequent band, with its count. When two bands tie, the tie breaks toward the higher band — the more hopeful reading. |
| Mood — Last 30 Days | A line chart of the last 30 days. The y-axis is labelled with the band names, Bad to Great, rather than numbers — you read the line as weather, not as a score. |
| Mood Distribution | One bar per band, Great down to Bad, each showing how many days landed there and what share of the total that is. |
| Mood Records | Your Best Month and Worst Month by average. Only months with at least 15 logged days are ranked, and the current month is excluded while it's still unfinished — if no month qualifies yet, the section simply stays hidden. |
| Daily Log | A month selector and a day-by-day table — every day of the month is listed, with unlogged days shown as a dimmed — so gaps are visible at a glance. |
Mood is scoped to your working year. Every stat, the chart, the records and the Daily Log read only the selected year — when you're browsing a past year, the Daily Log opens on that year's last logged month instead of today's.
