## What is KnowMe?

Know yourself. Change follows.

KnowMe is a calm, private journal for people who want to understand a habit, not be lectured about it.

Maybe it's evenings that keep catching you out. Maybe it's stress at work, boredom at home, or a parent trying to stay patient when frustration builds. KnowMe doesn't hand you a plan. It helps you notice your own pattern, in your own words, one honest moment at a time.

LOG A MOMENT IN TEN SECONDS
When an urge or a hard moment shows up, note how strong it is, where you are, how you feel, whether you did it, and what helped. One screen, one thumb, done, even mid-moment.

WHEN IT'S HARD, START HERE
Tap "I'm in it" and KnowMe shows you your own reasons, what has helped you before, and a slow breathing circle with a quiet timer. Your words first. No orders, no lectures.

SEE YOUR PATTERNS IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
KnowMe turns your moments into simple charts on your phone: intensity over time, when moments tend to land, where they happen, and what actually helps. Under each chart, one plain sentence says what it shows, like "Most of your moments land between 7 and 10pm."

A SHORT LETTER ABOUT YOUR WEEK
Tap Reflect and KnowMe writes you a short letter about your week, ending with one open question. It's written from a brief, anonymous summary: counts, times of day, and the reasons you wrote. Your notes are left out unless you turn them on for that one letter. You get one letter a day; a new one is ready after midnight.

THE GNOME NEVER JUDGES
The gnome holds the lantern, never the lecture. There are no streaks to break, no red failure screens, and nothing is ever called a relapse or a failure. It passed, or you did it. Both are simply noted, and you keep going.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything you log, including your habits, reasons, and moments, is stored only on this phone. There is no account, no sign-up, no cloud sync, no analytics, and no advertising. Logging, "I'm in it", and Patterns all work offline. Reflect is the only feature that goes online, and only when you tap it.

MAKE IT YOURS
Track what matters to you, in your own words. Start with a preset, or name your own behavior, feeling, or helper. KnowMe fits around your life: parenting patience, evening habits, smoking, drinking, scrolling, or anything else you want to understand better.

ONE PRICE. YOURS TO KEEP.
KnowMe is $7.99, once. No subscription, no tiers, no upsells.

Know thyself. The data is yours. The conclusions are yours.

—
KnowMe is a self-reflection journal. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not replace professional support. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, US) or call 911 in an emergency. Support lines are always one tap away in the app, under Me → Get support.
