## What is Joyo?

Some days just blur past. Something drained you — you can't quite say what. And a streak broke somewhere along the way.

Joyo works differently. Note your day, let the patterns surface, and turn what you learn into affirmations that follow you home — right to your widget.

NOTE — CATCH THE DAY BEFORE IT FADES
Pour your raw day into quick moments: a mood face, a tag (Work, Sleep, Gratitude…), a line of free text if you feel like it. A few seconds now saves the whole story for later.

TRACK — SEE WHAT YOU KEEP MISSING
Joyo reads your moments back to you: your mood split, your emotions, your food. "Back pain every workday." "Drained after social media." Once you can see a pattern, you can finally change it.

AFFIRM — LOCK THE LESSON IN
Turn a lesson into an affirmation, and Joyo keeps it in front of you — on your home-screen widget and in gentle notifications. Write as many as you need: your affirmations are unlimited.

RINGS & POINTS
Meet your four happiness chemicals — dopamine, serotonin, endorphins and oxytocin — reimagined as a playful daily game with their own cute mascots. Fill the colorful rings at the top of your feed, and tap any of them for its About screen: the science behind each one, told with stories and charts in plain, curious language. It's a game: points for the things that make days feel good, not a measurement of anything in your body.

HABITS THAT FORGIVE
Habit cards with streaks that hold on the bad weeks — one rough Tuesday doesn't erase your month. Gentle reminders, not guilt trips. Light and dark mode, and a feed that asks for seconds, not minutes.

BUILT WITH ADHD BRAINS IN MIND
If routines slip through your fingers, you're not broken — you just need scaffolding that actually fits. Joyo keeps entries tiny, reminders gentle, and progress visible, so momentum comes from patterns you can see instead of willpower you're supposed to summon. Everyone is welcome here; some of us just needed a tracker that finally gets it.

START TONIGHT
Note one moment before bed. That's it. Tomorrow, note another. Joyo will hold onto the days for you — and slowly, gently, they'll add up to someone you recognize and like.

Your days are already telling a story. Joyo helps you hear it.

UNLIMITED SELF CARE PLAN
Go unlimited: unlimited storage for everything you log, smart suggestions drawn from your own patterns, and Double Encryption for your notes. Your first year comes at a special introductory price — the amount for your country is shown in the app before you confirm.

SUBSCRIPTION
Unlimited Self Care Plan — $99 per year, with an introductory $29 for a new subscriber's first year (USD; local prices are shown in the app and on this page): unlimited storage for your data, smart suggestions, Double Encryption. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically at the end of each period unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends.

### 2/5 — Won’t open

*2024-05-30*

When I try to open it all I get is a black screen. It says it’s the latest version so it’s not that.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2022-05-12*

I entered my email and password, moved through the intro pages and then the app forced close. Deleted it then reinstalled and now it’s saying my email and password are not valid.

**Developer response:** Dear Client,

We are sorry this bug happened. Please update the app or text us to mind@happybrain.app to get the problem resolved ASAP.

### 5/5 — My daily reflection guide

*2022-04-08*

I use Happy Brain app to track my emotions and wellbeing. It keeps me in check and on track to complete my wellness goals. Love the design and the stats it gives me about myself!

### 3/5 — Interesting concept but app stopped functioning

*2022-01-04*

The app seems very promising but after one day of doing the journaling, the app stopped working. When I open it, I just see a blank white screen, and then the app crashes/exits. Hopefully it can be fixed so I can try it properly for awhile and leave a more complete review.

**Developer response:** Dear Client,

Please update the app. We have a totally new design, lots of new features, and the issues you mentioned have been fixed!

Regards,
Nova, Co-Founder

### 5/5 — Information pertaining to the description of your app

*2021-03-20*

Hello:

I attempted to first email you via your website, I was unable to do so.

From the description of your app, I may be interested in trying this.  

It’s not my intent to appear pretentious however, I wanted to comment on the following:

Under the section “Stop Suffering”

“Some of your daily activities give you short term pleasure but make suffer afterwards.”

Should the word “make“ be “may” or some other word?

It seems that you’re relatively a new developer and I felt compelled to inform you of the previous information. I apologize if this offends you in any way.  But, if this app can help people, I believe it would be unfortunate if people do not try this app because of a grammatical error.

(World Press states the importance of good grammar.  Correct grammar will give the reader more confidence in the person (or the company) communicating with them. ... Spelling errors and grammatical mistakes may also change the meaning of your message, which might result in misinformation.  Poor grammar suggests to readers that you lack. professionalism, and they may choose not to trust you as an unprofessional source. Moreover, poor grammar may imply that you don't respect your audience enough to get things right.)

Peace.

**Developer response:** Dear Client,

Please update the app. We have a totally new design, lots of new features, and the issues you mentioned have been fixed!

Regards,
Nova, Co-Founder

### 5/5 — This is going to help save my life!

*2020-12-29*

Mindfulness is incredibly challenging when you mix DID with cPTSD; I live in slices of time AND have executive dysfunction. This app circumvents both using the superpower of the other. I need this on a smart watch.

**Developer response:** Great thank you for this review!

Any requests? Please text to mind@happybrain.app

### 5/5 — Life saver

*2020-01-31*

By simply noting what I’ve done today instead of making bunch of plans for the future, I managed to cope with anxiety!

Small fixes and polish.

• Tapping the date or text on a card with a tall photo now opens the entry for editing — not the photo viewer.

### 2.2 — 2026-09-11

Sleep is back.

• With your permission, Joyo imports last night’s sleep from Apple Health — one entry per night — and shows it on the Sleep card at the top of Statistics. It updates within seconds, without reopening the app.

### 2.0 — 2026-09-08

Joyo 2.0 — a fresh start:

• New name, new icon — same journal you know, now in 33 languages
• Your day at a glance: the 4-ring wellness header on the feed
• Redesigned logging: pick your items, then add mood, a note and photos — two quick steps, one Done. Going back keeps your answers, and saving again updates your moment instead of duplicating it
• Editing your logged moments is free for everyone
• Much faster launch: a big journal could leave you on the launch screen for up to 40 seconds — now you reach your feed in a few seconds
• The + button opens reliably and about 10x faster, and the first swipe no longer stalls
• A clear way out: the affirmation, food, perfect-day and activity screens now have a close button that asks before discarding — and a discarded note stays discarded
• Emotion scanner: descriptions now appear in a bottom panel, and the scanner has its own screen from the (+) button
• Feed fixes: new moments appear instantly, swipe left to delete (with confirmation), tap a calendar day to jump there, and duplicate cards from logging the same thing twice are gone
• Delete your account right in the app — quick and complete
• Plus: offline affirmations no longer duplicate, goal checkmarks render correctly, and dozens of small fixes
