You can also enjoy the benefits of a being a dedicated diarist without the hassle of relying on willpower alone - customisable reminders help you to keep your journal accurate and thorough so nothing gets ignored.

This app helps you to be objective about your emotions (past, present and future) and helps you to make better life decisions. You will realise what is truly influencing your mood and then you'll be able to do something about it.

Everything you write is private. You won't see any 'share my mood on Facebook and Twitter' buttons. For this information to be truly valuable it should be for your eyes only.

If you are changing your life or taking medication then this app is a perfect way to spot any gradual benefits.

Your Happiness journal will be with you for the rest of your life. You can export and back up your data whenever you need to.

Features:
- Starts very quickly to allow you to quickly track your mood, whatever you're doing
- Break up thoughts and feelings into tags and longer-form thoughts by using the 'Return' button on the keyboard
- Read all entries under Journal
- See a month-by-month breakdown of your biggest influences under Analysis

Reviews

Nice UI improvements but less capable
sleight42

TL;DR: new UI pretty but less functional. This "2.0" version of Happiness is pleasing to the eye. However, the Analysis capability is generally less capable than the old version. Also, the Analysis screen is somewhat confusing as it now encompasses three different screens that I can left/right drag to. The "journal" feature is good but: (1) let me distinguish between tags and free text on the journal entry. (2) I should be able to edit a journal entry after the fact.

Good but frequent

Overall I really like this app and find the stats useful. I'd swear there's a bug making it alert multiple times per day though. I have more entries than days and it's getting worse.

Neat tool

I find this app interesting. I don't really use the analytics, but I find myself more aware of how I feel. And that's neat.

Interesting and useful tool

I find this to be a very interesting app. If nothing else, it's a good reminder to do some mindfulness meditation every day. The analytics are interesting, but with the limited data I have so far not terribly insightful yet (I've been using the app for about a month now). I'm curious to see what emerge as I continue to use the app.
