Moodflow Reviews

by Erin Greenberg

I was excited to try Moodflow for mood tracking. I liked the gradients and the customization available. I could really make it my own and track what was important to me. And it had pretty colors! What's not to love?

However, I ran into several bugs that froze Moodflow . Adding a new person for interactions and notes to symptoms both froze the screen, forcing me to close Moodflow and restart. However, that meant I lost the rest of the data I entered for the entry and had to redo everything.

These are some of the key features that would make it worth paying the subscription (and take Moodflow from just a data entry app to an insight app). I signed up for the subscription (great value!) but canceled before the trial was over. I'd love to come back if these issues get fixed, but I don't want to be stuck in frustration.

This is Moodflow I’ve been looking for. I downloaded every mood tracking app I could find last year and spent about 1 day on each of them before getting frustrated either by bad design, or by a lack of an important tracking feature (e.g. no way to track medications). When my psychiatrist told me about this app yesterday, I downloaded it and was completely impressed and smitten. It’s free, it is visually appealing, it has all the features I could imagine included. I love that it’s there’s a way to track not only mood and journal, but also physical activity, sleep, medication, social interactions, and a gratitude journal feature.

My one wishlist item would be the ability to connect Moodflow to other apps, such as Apple Health and Sleep Cycle, so I don’t have to put my physical activity and sleep info in manually.

I’m about to go tell everyone about this app. Thank you for making this free and so accessible!

It is such a great way to be able to track your days, and what you did during the day. It’s a great app to use to reflect on the day and how you can do things better. There are so many features on Moodflow & all of them are pretty much customizable which is really cool. I’ve been tracking my days for about a month and a half now and I have not had a single issue. I am in love with Moodflow and find out something new and cool about it every day! It does a great job of letting you create an experience personalized towards you. I recommend to anyone, and everyone!

I love Moodflow! The reminders are done with a nice quote. It’s super easy to use. I’ve owned journals throughout my life. I’ve never made more than a couple entries. I’ve been consistent with this for a month. I think the graphing helps me see trends and stay with it. I would like to have the option of Saturday at the end of the week and Sunday at the beginning. And I agree about having a pin to unlock Moodflow and my personal journal. Thank you for designing Moodflow !

I love Moodflow so much. I tried a few mood tracking apps but deleted them the moment I found this one! I was wondering if it would be possible to work on more than just one challenge at a time, or if not even just being able to set how long you would like to work on that challenge instead of it automatically setting it for a month? Otherwise Moodflow is absolutely fantastic and really helpful! Thank you and thank you so much for creating this beautiful app!

I have tried so many journaling apps and books, and have not stayed consistent with any of them because they were missing something I needed or didn’t look esthetically pleasing, and because I have ADHD and depression. I love how easy it is to use and so customizable! I love how the free version gives you pretty much everything I need and there are no ads! I used to not journal when I was in a mood, but now I’m excited to journal about every mood. I get to see my progress and learn about myself, triggers, likes, and dislikes. The challenge option for habit tracking and encouragement is the icing on the cake! I am so grateful for Moodflow! I didn’t want to overwhelm myself, so I will try the plus version soon!

by GoatKweenie

I highly recommend Moodflow if you struggle with depression and anxiety, or just anything at all. Almost everything is customizable, from the color of the pixels, to the moods, and even the background! One thing I’d like to see is being able to change the color of the calendar. I typically keep my phone screen at the lowest option and even have reduced white point on. It’s quite tedious to have to turn my brightness up to see the calendar. Other than that, I recommend Moodflow 100%!

Ok so I rarely review apps but this one was worth it. Moodflow gives you so many options to work with. Different calendars to track moods, a journal to see entries, so many charts to visually see moods or day ratings. Moodflow is very customizable and that makes it perfect to use. I can use it how I please. One of the best parts is that there’s no ads, and no annoying promotions to upgrade to the pro version!! Seriously just try to app for a week and you’ll love everything about it like me!!

I love Mood Flow! It’s so easy to use, and a fun tool to see your progress throughout the year. One of the best parts of Moodflow , in my opinion, is how there are no ads unless you choose to watch them! I’ve never encountered this before in any app, but because it’s so thoughtful, I find myself watching a few ads every time I add an entry, just out of gratefulness. You can tell that there’s so much heart put into it, and that’s what makes it so special. I would give it many more stars if I could.

by Thiiccems

Talking and reflecting about my day is my favorite part about the end of the day. Moodflow is so easy and fun to use. It is extremely cool to see how I felt on the days before and see my improvement. I recommended Moodflow to my boyfriend and (mostly) every day we exchange our entries and talk about our day.

An cool new feature would be to add pictures to the entry, so I could remember what I wore on that specific day or if I saw something cool. Other than that, Moodflow is one of the best things I have ever had on my phone. If I could, I would have more than 5 stars :)

by Leopardnose_

The user interference of Moodflow is really pleasing and easy to use it's not too convoluted so I find it easy to quickly log my mood, which is good since I'm bad at keeping up with these apps. I was wondering if there were any plans to introduce another feature to the rating oscillation graph, one that shows the range of your moods throughout the day like dailyo does? I like to be able to look at and track my mood stability as well as my mood on average.

by NightNebula

This is a great app, and the fact that it’s free is the best part. It’s also super customizable.

However there’s one thing missing; when selecting a “How did you feel” mood for the day, you have a happy to sad spectrum (these are the colours that show up on the calendar view), however, there isn’t an option for an angry or upset mood. You can add that emotion in the extra moods, but from the calendar view you won’t be able to tell.

I hope the Dev Implants a mad or angry mood, because I’ll have to use “Depressed” in order to stand out from the mostly neutral moods I normally have.

by Julzzz!!

Moodflow is amazing. For starters, the layout is super user friendly and very easy to look at. The cool tones are relaxing and doesn’t make tracking your moods seem like a huge task. I love that you can pick your own colors for the various moods and that I can write a little blurb about each day. Also love that I can press a button to indicate whether I exercised or took my medicine that day.

Probably the best thing though is the creator of Moodflow. 2 weeks ago, I sent him an email requesting a particular feature be added to Moodflow to help me navigate the calendar set up in an easier manner. That feature was include on the next app update. Talk about efficiency!

by Abc123NINJA!

I honestly rarely write app reviews, but Moodflow is wonderful and needs more positive attention. I think it deserves to be high app on Moodflow store because of how great it is! You can customize almost every element (for free!). Unlike other apps, you can add many types of emotions and activities as well as create your own. You can also view all of your stats in many different formats which is super helpful. There are even options to create your own color palette and labels for feelings! Moodflow is beautifully designed. You won’t regret downloading it. I hope I continue to like it throughout the whole new year!

Moodflow is excellent overall, especially considering that it’s free.

I enjoy the format and all the customizable options. I appreciate having the option to pick specific emotions and make notes, but it’s important for me that in the end all I *have* to do to keep this up daily is choose a color. This is the difference for me- when I’m low energy, busy, or experiencing particularly negative feelings this is still manageable for me to do. Apps that rely primarily on journaling were very hard for me to be consistent with.

Importantly I’ve also found Mood Pixel to be very stable. The last mood tracking app I tried seemed to crash constantly even across updates.

My only small request is that the note writing mode be compatible with predictive text- maybe it’s just my phone or something but I have to type every word put letter by letter and I’d love to not have to do that.

Overall I enthusiastically recommend Moodflow, especially if you’ve had difficulty keeping up with other mood trackers.

EDIT: Thank you for adding predictive text compatibility!! :D

I’ve struggled a lot with recognizing my own emotions and forcing myself to see things in a “grey area” (as opposed to black and white thinking).
Moodflow has helped me a lot to see the overall of how my day was, especially as I like to check in with myself and do a couple entries per day. The ability to pick a color scheme for the moods has been super helpful as well and has helped me think more in the ‘grey area’ seeing a day I may have thought was horrible also had some good points.
I love being able to see what I was doing when I was feeling a certain way, and I really like the fact that I can rate my interactions with different people as well.

Moodflow has been super helpful for me, and I genuinely can’t think of a complaint other than the obvious of wanting plus features for free— but I’m extremely happy with what I’m able to do, I think it’s a lot better than anything I’ve tried before (and I do get the concept of needing to charge for certain things to keep the general app free of course).

Thank you!!!!! I love it

I adore Moodflow. I’ve been using it on and off since 2019, and every time I come back it gets better. I really appreciate the developer’s determination to give a good experience to anyone, meaning that the free version of Moodflow is excellent, and the subscription if you choose to use it is very affordable. I’ve used countless mental health trackers, and this is by far my favorite. Other ones don’t always stick with me, but I always find myself coming back to this one. I would highly recommend giving this one a shot. I feel like it’s aesthetics combined with the customization, ease of use, great insights, and constantly updating features makes it a real winner.

Every time I click the analytics tab for the past few days, it shows the date for a moment and then the entire screen turns white. It’s on analytics for less than a second. It doesn’t show any data, just the date and then a white screen that I can’t click out of. I have to delete Moodflow tab. What’s up with this and how can I fix it? It worked before.
Aside from that, I love Moodflow. I journal every day. I recently got diagnosed with Bipolar II, and Moodflow has really made it so easy to track my emotions without having to try to do it in my own head. I never knew how much I needed something like this until I tried it. Thank you!

by Paranoiac Fan

I love using Moodflow to track how I’ve been feeling, and recently it’s been showing an upward trend in my mood, which probably has something to do with my increased awareness of it because of having to write journal entries. So that’s pretty neat
However, I feel as though the journal entries I write are very personal, and whenever I let someone borrow my phone (which is often) I feel like they’ll get a glimpse into my private life that I don’t want them to have. Is there any possible way to create an option to input a password upon opening Moodflow ? It’s a feature in a dream tracking app (Lucidity) that I have that makes my private thoughts feel a lot more secure, and I think it would be a good feature here.

With the new year starting, I’ve wanted to go into it with a certain mindfulness towards my daily moods and I tried out a few different apps over the past few months so I had one I could stick with when the new year came along. Moodflow is by far the most beautiful, and customizable app I found. I love that I can journal and adjust my mood, showing what I was doing and where. It’s really made me aware of how what I’m doing affects me. Lastly, I love the pictures that are available for the background. They’re just plain beautiful, and really... zen? For lack of a better word. Thanks for this awesome mood tracker!

by Dennyjames74

I have used Moodflow since I hit rock bottom. I deal with PTSD, anxiety, OCD, and depression. At my worst I started using Moodflow to track moods and events in my life. I’ve been able to see my progress over 3 years to my beautiful life and self today. Moodflow gave me encouragement and hope.

My only complaint is that is is not totally free to help others like me along their way. But I know you have to pay the bills. Thank you for this tool.

by Catchthemice

I have had trouble sticking with a journal or tracking anything consistently, but I’ve stuck with this for nearly a month. It’s really helped me get perspective. It’s entirely free, with the option to watch an ad tucked away as a way to support the developer (which I do try to do as often as I can remember!).
It’s a fantastic app and I hope it continues to evolve!

Only question - what happens when the year rolls over? I don’t want to lose all my journal entries.

by Bit632

This has been really helpful for me in so many ways, so the idea for what it does is great. What makes Moodflow really special, though, is how clean the interface is compared to similar apps, most of which cost money! I also just love how nice and personal things are. Getting the reminder each night with an inspiring or consolatory message always makes me feel like there are still good people in the world, and Moodflow developer is one of them!

Thank you!

Moodflow is exactly what I’ve wanted... I’ve been too lazy and forgetful to track my moods on paper but Moodflow is the key. Almost every feature is customizable and you can set reminders to go do the stuff in Moodflow . It comes with colors (and the ability to se your own), a journal, activities and a mood section. All of them can be changed however you want. And it’s free?! Bless the developer.
