Foxtale is a private mental health journal and mood tracker with a self-care pet: a fox companion who grows as you do. Name what you feel, spot the patterns in your mental health, and turn checking in on yourself into a journaling habit you look forward to. "I’ve never been able to journal, but this little fox helps me process my thoughts and emotions." - App Store Review, 2026 A mental health journal you will actually keep up. Most mental health journal and mood tracker apps get abandoned within a week. Foxtale is built to be picked up: short guided journal prompts, a cozy world that changes with each entry, and a self-care pet who is glad to see you. People tell us the journaling feels less like a task and more like a hobby, and that a few minutes each morning or evening has quietly become part of their self-care routine. Understand your emotions, not just log your mood. Each journal entry starts by naming the emotion, not just "good" or "bad" but the specific feeling underneath. That one step is what helps you process an emotion and move through it rather than sit in it, which is why Foxtale works as mental health support and not only as a mood tracker. Over time your mood tracker shows what lifts you, what drains you, and how your emotions shift across the week, so the mental health insights are about your life, not a generic score. A self-care pet, not a chore. As you journal, your fox gathers your emotions as glowing orbs to restore a forgotten world. You can dress your fox and decorate their home, but the game stays in service of your self-care rather than the other way round. If you have tried a self-care pet app before and wanted more substance underneath the cute, Foxtale was made for you. Mental health support for the hard stretches. Foxtale is often downloaded in the middle of something difficult: an anxiety flare-up, grief, a breakup, burnout, a diagnosis you are still getting your head around. The prompts are written for those moments, and the mood tracker gives you a calm, private place to put what you are carrying and to see your mental health steady over time. A journal built for minds that work differently. Foxtale is used by people living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, BPD, PTSD and OCD, and by ADHD, autistic and AuDHD people who find open-ended journaling hard to start. Guided prompts, emotion labels and a feelings wheel give structure when a blank page does not, and gentle reminders help the habit stick without nagging. It also helps if you struggle to identify your emotions (alexithymia), or experience mood swings and shutdowns that a standard mood tracker misses. What's inside your mental health journal: Mood tracker and emotion tracker with clear visual insights Guided journal prompts and emotion labels Gratitude and reflection prompts for daily self-care and mental health check-ins Short emotion and mental health lessons grounded in real psychology A self-care pet fox and an evolving story driven by your entries Customizable journal templates and reminders 100% private: your journal and mood tracker data stay on your device Built by the mental health tracking team behind Bearable: Foxtale comes from the team behind Bearable, the health and mood tracking app used by hundreds of thousands of people living with chronic and mental health conditions.

Help? *2026-09-30, version 1.10.13* Help? I think I accidentally subscribed for plus became I now have access to everything in the app, but when I go to subscriptions on my phone I can’t seem to find it. I don’t know what to do. Otherwise a great app I love it. I just don’t want to spend money on it. ### 5/5 — I love this app *2026-09-30, version 1.10.13* Micah is an idiot and this app is amazing and helpful. Gaby is the goat and a genius and amazing and Micah is 😐😐😐😐 ### 5/5 — Thank You *2026-09-29, version 1.10.13* I am just so grateful for this game, I have been using it for about 4 months and it has helped me through some of the biggest trials of my life. I enjoy the cute game elements and that there is no pressure to achieve anything or use it every day. It helps me a lot with managing negative emotions but also recognizing my own successes. I think this app really changed my life and the extra in-app purchase was also worth the money, but you could also get by without it. Thank you to all of the developers and whoever built the Facebook ad that made me aware of this game. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-09-29, version 1.10.13* Easy to use journal, prompts to help you express and write down what you need! Very cute little fox and friends to help you through understanding your emotions. ### 5/5 — Nothing but praise! *2026-09-27, version 1.10.13* I’ve been using the app for about a month and I love it. It helps me reflect, understand and regulate my emotions, and build genuine strategies I use day-to-day. It’s definitely helping me to improve my mental health! It kind of reminds me of the old ‘Journey’ feature in Finch (e.g. gratitude, sleep, etc.), which was my favourite feature until they removed it! That said, Foxtale has been more consistently helpful for me, because of the focus on self-reflection and meaningful engagement with the app, with some studies to support. I also appreciate that there isn’t a login streak. It means that using the app is something I *want* to do, rather than something that I feel like I *have* to do. And, obviously, the fox is extremely cute! I love all the customisable options for the house, it’s all great. Thank you to the developers! You’re doing amazing work! I’m looking forward to seeing where you’ll take the app in the future. ### 5/5 — Seems highly useful. *2026-09-27, version 1.10.13* Thanks. I had to say I found this in the App Store because Hank Green’s YouTube wasn’t an option. ### 5/5 — A big help *2026-09-24, version 1.10.13* This app at first was just cutesy. The longer I’ve played it though, the more it’s helped me to understand what I’m feeling and how to deal with those feelings ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-09-24, version 1.10.13* Most engaged I’ve ever been into regarding consistent journaling. I love my little fox!!! I struggle and this app helps me recenter and ground myself. Worth the money ### 5/5 — Positive Start to my Day! *2026-09-23, version 1.10.13* I was hesitant at first because I wasn’t able to stick with Finch. But this app is different! It is much more about what’s going on inside my brain/body than what I’m putting out into the world or getting done. Which means it doesn’t add stress but helps me look inward! ### 5/5 — Super cute way to label and track emotions *2026-09-23, version 1.10.13* I have trouble making habits stick but I’ve been sticking with this app, because it found a way to gamify labeling and tracking emotions in such a cute, fun, and informative way. Highly recommend. ## Frequently asked questions about Foxtale ### What does Foxtale Mood & Emotion Tracker do?
