A colour a day - watch the pattern build
Log how you're feeling as a colour, not just a word. Pick from twelve mood chips, set an intensity, and watch each day fill in on a calendar heat-map - then step back and see the whole year as a genuinely visual mosaic instead of a list of entries nobody re-reads.
Calm, happy, energized, grateful, content, peaceful, hopeful, tired, anxious, sad, stressed, angry - each its own distinct hue spanning warm and cool, positive and negative, so the calendar reads as genuinely varied colour rather than a handful of near-identical shades.
Five colour-preview dots, not a plain numeric slider - each dot already shows the exact shade that intensity will land on the calendar, from a pale, barely-there tint up to the full, saturated colour.
Every logged day colours its own square on the month grid. Click any day - past or future - to log or edit it, and jump straight back to today with one click from anywhere in the month.
A month-by-month mosaic of every day you've logged across a full year. Runs and patterns that are invisible day-to-day - a stretch of stressed weeks, a calmer summer - show up as shape and colour you can actually see.
Current logging streak and longest-ever streak are always visible, alongside days logged this month out of the total - small, honest numbers that make a daily habit easier to keep without turning it into a chore.
A monthly breakdown of every mood you've logged as coloured bars, plus your most common mood and average intensity - a quick, honest snapshot rather than a chart that needs interpreting.
One click copies the month's mood log - date, mood, intensity and any note - as plain text, ready to paste into a journal, a message to a therapist, or your own notes app.
Add up to 500 characters on what made the day that colour, if you want to. The colour itself is the headline feature - the note is a footnote you can skip entirely.
Every mood, note and setting is stored locally only - there's no account, no cloud sync, and no data sent anywhere. "Copy this month as text" is the only export, and it goes to your own clipboard.
Set which day the calendar week starts on in Settings, so the heat-map lines up with how you actually think about a week.
A slow-drifting aurora background, soft glassmorphism cards and a gentle breathing animation on the logging card - the UI is built to be a calm, unhurried moment in the day, not another dashboard to power through.
This is a lightweight, personal mood-logging journal - it doesn't diagnose, analyse, or offer advice beyond simple counts and streaks. It's for noticing your own patterns, not replacing professional support.
Most people either write mood entries in a notes app or use a mood tracker built around charts and scores. Here's how a colour-first calendar compares.
| Feature | Metre2 Mood Colour Calendar | A notes app or diary | A chart-based mood tracker |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Free | Free (general-purpose) | Often subscription-based |
| Whole month/year visible as colour, at a glance | ✓ | ✕ | Rare - usually line/bar charts instead |
| Intensity picker previews the actual colour | ✓ | ✕ | ✕ |
| Year-long mosaic view | ✓ | ✕ | Rare |
| Data stays on-device, no account needed | ✓ | ✓ | Usually requires an account and cloud sync |
General comparison as of August 2026. Not affiliated with any mood-tracking app or diary vendor.
Pick one of twelve mood chips (each its own colour - calm blue, happy yellow, stressed red, and so on) and a 1-5 intensity. The app mixes the mood's colour toward white for lower intensities and full-strength for higher ones, so a mild version of a feeling looks like a pale tint and a strong one looks like the full colour. That exact colour is what lands on the calendar.
Each date holds one mood entry - logging again for the same day updates it rather than adding a second colour. This is a daily colour, not a running mood feed, which keeps the calendar and year mosaic readable at a glance.
It's a mosaic of every day you've logged across a whole year, laid out month by month. Patterns that are hard to notice day-to-day - a run of stressed weeks, a calmer summer - become visible as a shape and a colour, not just a list of entries.
Yes - each entry has an optional note (up to 500 characters) for what made the day that colour. It's entirely optional; the colour itself is the headline feature.
No. Every mood entry is stored locally on your device only. There's no cloud sync and nothing is sent anywhere - the Insights tab's "Copy this month as text" button is the only way data leaves the app, and that's your own clipboard.
No. It's a lightweight, personal mood-logging journal - not a diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical tool, and it doesn't offer advice or analysis beyond simple counts and streaks. If you're going through a difficult time, please reach out to a healthcare professional or a support service.
