Colors is a mood tracker and mental health journal that helps you understand how you feel, see what shapes your emotions, and feel more like yourself — one check-in at a time.
Whether you're working through anxiety, low mood, or stress — or you simply want to know yourself better — Colors turns everyday feelings into clear, personal insight, and lets you share how you're doing with the people who matter.
How does mood tracking work in Colors?
Log how you feel in seconds — no writing required.
- Pick from 120+ emotions across 7 color-coded mood groups, or create your own
- Add several emotions to one check-in — feelings are rarely just one thing
- Capture the triggers and factors behind your mood: people, work, sleep, coffee, exercise, your cycle, and more
- Add a private note for context
- Missed a day? Back-date any entry
What can I learn about myself?
Colors is more than a calendar — it surfaces the patterns you can't see day to day.
- See your emotion distribution and dominating moods over any period
- Find out which triggers affect you most
- Follow your wellbeing trend week by week
- View your whole year at a glance as a color grid
- Get a monthly Mood Score and see how it compares — anonymously — with the community

Can Colors help me work through difficult emotions?
Yes. Colors includes guided tools based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
- Reframe a hard moment step by step: situation, thoughts, reaction, evidence, outcome
- Learn to recognize 14 common cognitive distortions — and how to challenge them
- Track how often distorted thinking shows up in your entries
Want to go deeper?

This app is well-made so far and has so much potential. Very easy to navigate, customizable, and nicely designed (but not overly stylized). As a fairly new app, there is so much potential— adding other ways to view trends maybe?- Options to view by week or weeks or a couple months at a time, rather than just by the calendar month? - Maybe somehow connecting the Life Balance Wheel with the factors on the daily checkins?But overall really enjoying this app.

Thank you for your feedback! We have same plans about improving trends view. Also we've added one more mood score widget to compare yourself with a global community.
Pretty great

I love using this app. The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is because it says check in regularly for at least a month to get tips on yourWellbeing. I have been checking in for almost two months with no tips or hints. It’s fine if this feature was removed or if it worked, just a bit frustrating. Other than that I like the aesthetic and pleasing UI, plus the option to add your own personal triggers and journal entries

Hi, thank you very much for your feedback. We are still at the very beginning of our journey and for a next release have decided to focus on another feature that will give you extra insight into your possible mood factors. Analytical hints is still a work in progress and will be added in the next couple of releases. Stay tuned!
Character Limit

Literally the only thing keeping me from giving this app 5 stars is the fact that there’s a character limit on check-ins. I feel that if they allowed you to check in but still journal, that would be an improvement. I have anxiety and mild BPD, so as an over thinker, I prefer to do an entire brain dump in my journal. So with a character limit, I don’t think I can best do that in this app.

Thank you for your feedback! We are constantly improving user experience based on user comments. We will increase limits in the next update.

Love that I can check in as many times as I want throughout the day. Love that different moods have different colors so that I can see the changes
