## What is Howdy?

Howdy is your private and secure app for journaling and self-reflection.

A GENTLE WAY TO SELF-REFLECT AND JOURNAL
For big and small moments. Little victories and things... that could have gone better. Track your feelings, how your body feels, and how your energy changes over the day with wellness scales. Store your memories and inspiring quotes, or write away your nerves — it's entirely up to you!

A TOOL TO KEEP YOUR JOURNALING HABIT ALIVE AND INTERESTING
Use the Howdy Daily subscription to get access to journaling programs and guided journaling — keep your journaling habit alive and exciting. Use programs that fit your lifestyle and help you reach your goals, whether you want to feel more balanced, happy, or productive.

USE JOURNALING HELPERS TO ACT QUICKLY
Track your emotional triggers and log dreams with quick and easy journaling helpers. Those custom mini-tools were designed to let you act and collect your thoughts quickly and in an organized way.

YOUR LIBRARY OF HAPPY MEMORIES
Use Howdy to track your favorite moments, keep them close, and ready to lift your mood should you encounter struggles in daily life. That great walk? Rock-solid presentation? A cozy evening at home? You won't forget that, keeping the memory alive and vibrant for a long time.

WHAT HAPPENS ON THE PHONE STAYS ON THE PHONE
Your Howdy data is yours — it's not synced anywhere outside your iCloud, and we do not process it anyhow. So what is yours is genuinely yours to keep! You can use your biometric lock in the Howdy app with FaceID and TouchID to ensure you are the only person seeing your data.

HOW IT WORKS:
Getting started is simple. Download the Howdy app and start saving memories!
Howdy offers an optional monthly or yearly subscription called Howdy Daily that helps you to keep journaling with journaling programs, guided journaling, and journaling helper tools.
