Thank you

It is the best app ever. I love every detail of it and resource. I am so grateful it’s accessible. I value it so much. Thank you!

This App Has Changed My Life

A therapist recommended this app to me years ago, and over time I’ve gotten in the habit of using it at least a couple times a week. Ive noticed I instinctively open the app whenever I’m going through a hard time, and use it as a sort of “journal”.
Seeing the data change over time is absolutely fascinating and incredibly helpful for me to see. I’ve learned things about my emotional health that I never would have known about otherwise, and can use that knowledge to recognize patterns and (thanks to the AI function) identify harmful thinking traps!
I also love that you can invite your provider to be able to view your entries, which would be so useful for people in therapy!
Thank you, HWF.

(And it’s FREE?!👏🏻🙌🏻)

update idea

i was on another app that also does what this app does, but it didn’t have as many emotions so i switched. as someone who does daily and monthly reflections, i appreciated that the other app had an option to view all of my emotions for the month at once. i’d like to see if a page that puts the emotions i put down for every day of the month is possible with this app.

Great for Quick Check Ins

I have utilized this app as a personal and honest check in for myself to help reflect on how I am feeling and managing my emotions throughout the day. It is also really helpful to be able to add a journal entry so that I can track what is causing that emotion. This has been great to reflect back during my therapy sessions. I have recommended this app to friends as a great tool.

Simple and effective

While the color scheme is a little loud, it is an altogether well designed app. The UX/UI seems targeted for a smaller screen than my own, but a reasonable stop gap has been implemented allowing for the expansion to use the whole screen. Still a little apprehensive about what is happening in the background as some of this information may be intimately personal, but overall a thorough design and implementation. Kudos.

Therapist Outside of Therapy

I have been using HWF for 670 days and this is what I would like to say:
• It is a tool to help you practice and remember what you learned in therapy.
•Accessible during high emotions to help you ground yourself. Obviously available during pleasant emotions as well.
• It’s free!! It’s not one of those apps that you download then there is something within the app that you have to pay for.
THANK YOU HWF!! Please keep the app free.

What you could do better

You should be able to do five for chickens chickens so then we can have one of each section but otherwise it’s OK of the reason why I gave it a one star was because I don’t know why but all of those videos that you put on How We Feel was just a little bit boring and it’s just that’s why I did boring on one of my reviews when I watched all of them and it’s just annoying and disappointing yeah I still use it but anyway thanks bye. i’m just saying you could do something better. thanks for listening.

New update is…

Please reverse the app to how it looked before. Applications and log tabs I enjoyed are no longer there and the style feels very corporate and harder to find things in comparison to how simple it was before…and I see many other users agree! Please change it back!

Great App - Unintentionally Biased

I thought this was a great app, it helped me start to name and understand my feelings. However, over time, I began to dislike the forced category of pleasant vs unpleasant. Not all feelings fit neatly into this, and I started to associate unpleasant feelings with ‘bad’, which is not the case. I’ve learned that those labeled as unpleasant are actually some of the most meaningful ones. So great app, great design, eye opening for me, but they should rethink the labeling in my opinion.

Good

Thought provoking app that improves emotional intelligence. Love it.

My fav app!!

This is amazing

GET RID OF THE AI!!!!!

i loved this app so much. i used it a lot and it genuinely helped me. they added ai features and that is so so disappointing. ai has NO place in mental health. this app already has so much going for it. adding ai features isn’t going to make it any more liked or downloaded and it isn’t going to make it anymore helpful. the only redeeming part is that you have the option to turn it off. ai is not a mental health professional. it should NOT be analyzing my feelings and writings and giving some uneducated, flat, surface level opinions on why i think i feel the way i do. the app says “ai is not a replacement for a licensed professional” it should stay that way. no matter how you look at it, that’s the only way it can been seen. it’s not a “tool” to help you figure out your emotions, that’s what a therapist is for. adding ai will only make people’s issues worse. i give it two stars because i used to be very attached to this app, but i unfortunately cannot see the value in continuing to use something that blatantly does not care about its users.

So thoughtful and helpful

Finding this was like striking gold, it’s genuinely such a good app and it really helps learn about yourself when you can track when and where you consistently experience different emotions.
It’s amazing that it’s free, you don’t see that much with self help apps now days, and I really respect them for that (*´꒳`*)

Very practical

This is a fantastic app , easy to use , it is very practical, and it really has a positive impact on my life and wellbeing

Really Good

very good app! very cool way to choose descriptors for moods and sure there could be a few more words added to accurately describe how one feels in the moment but then there would be an endless sea of words to pick through which wouldn’t be fun.

easy to follow. love the very clean and intuitive interface and the use of colours. and love the journal options of written or recorded.

WHAT IT COULD USE: energy levels between the two extremes -high and low. doesn’t cover the meh, blah territory. or ‘just ok’.

Amazing ❤️

This has been the best mood teaching app I’ve found so far! I love the ability to put in body sensations!

This makes me feel happy

This app allows me to guess how I feel depending on my feelings!

Pushes AI

This app would be okay except for the way it really pushes AI support all the time. I just want a way to check my emotions over time. I also didn’t like how it asks whether I’m high or low energy. I don’t think about my emotions linked to my energy level, so seemed pointless. It was also hard to find the emotion I was looking for, and I couldn’t add one.

The physical sensations part isn't working?

I've been using this app for a very long time. The physical sensations part of the act isn't working? Otherwise I LOVE this app! It keeps getting better and better!
