## What is Marram?

Marram is a calm, private diary card for Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Track emotions, urges and DBT skills between sessions in about 30 seconds, and bring a clear weekly card to your therapist.

Marram is named after the dune grass planted to hold shifting sand steady: skills that hold you through the storm.

LOG IN SECONDS
• Tap how you feel and set the intensity from 0 to 10. That's enough.
• Add urges, the skills you used and a note only when you want to.
• Track your own target behaviors under private labels only you understand.
• Dictate a note instead of typing.

SEE YOUR PATTERNS
• Your month in color: each day tinted by the emotion that led it.
• Urges ridden out, skills used and which DBT modules you lean on.
• Emotion trends over a week, a month, three months or a custom range.
• Mark whether a skill helped, and see what actually works for you.

BRING IT TO THERAPY
• A weekly diary card as a PDF, laid out like the paper card, ready to share with your therapist.
• "Prepare for a session": your last 7, 14 or 30 days on one page, built from your own entries. Your notes are never included.
• Choose your own emotion colors. The therapist card follows.
• A short chain-analysis walkthrough when you acted on an urge.

ANCHOR: HELP IN ONE TAP
• Breathe with a slow, steady circle.
• Step-by-step distress tolerance for riding out an urge.
• Crisis lines: find a helpline in your country, plus 988 and Crisis Text Line in the US.
• My people: pick a few people you trust once, then reach out in one tap. You press send.
Anchor is never behind a paywall.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Your diary lives only on your phone.
• No analytics and no ads. We never see your data.
• Optional Face ID lock.
• Export everything as JSON or CSV, or erase it all, any time.

GENTLE, NEVER JUDGING
No streaks to break, no scores for your mental health. A missed day is just a missed day.

Available in English, Ukrainian (beta) and Russian (beta).

Marram supports your therapy. It does not replace it, and it is not a medical device. If you are in immediate danger, call your local emergency number.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-11-09

Help is now closer, and Marram is easier to start with.
• New: a short first-run tour. Your first real entry, one skill, and where Anchor lives. You can skip any step.
• New: "Prepare for a session" in Insights gathers the last 7, 14 or 30 days into one page to bring to your therapist: the hardest moment, urges you rode out, skills that helped, and a private line for what you want to talk about. Your entry notes are never included.
• New: choose your own emotion colors. Four ready-made sets, or any color for each of the six families. Day and night stay readable, and the therapist card follows.
• The Anchor button now appears while you write an entry, review one, browse the skills library and in Settings.
• On a phone set to Ukraine, Anchor now lists Ukraine's emergency number instead of the US lines.
• New in Settings: "Tell someone about Marram" opens the share sheet with the App Store link.
• The "Open Anchor" shortcut shows its name in Ukrainian and Russian.
• The weekly therapist card has a small Marram line at the bottom.
• Fixed: the emotion chart no longer drops a day after the clocks change, and the Journal no longer skips entries logged in the same moment.
• The weekly PDF no longer counts as a backup in the export reminder.
• Better VoiceOver: buttons and switches are announced with their roles and names.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-10-21

A fresh look, and quicker ways to reach help.
• New look: calmer colors in light and Night mode, with a matching app icon (including iOS dark and tinted icons).
• Choose Automatic, Light or Dark in Settings.
• My people: save up to three people and a message you wrote when things are calm. In Anchor, one tap opens Messages, Telegram, WhatsApp or Viber with your text ready. Marram never sends anything: you press send.
• Open Anchor from the Action Button or with Siri.
• Month in color no longer shows weeks that haven't happened yet. Custom period in Insights is easier to read.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-20

Fixes and polish:
• The week number on Today now counts calendar weeks and matches the strip in Journal.
• A custom period in Insights no longer overlaps itself, in any language.
• Date and time pickers now follow the app’s language, not the phone’s.
• The PDF for your therapist shows the right range across a month boundary (“September 28 – October 4”) and is named after the week.
• “That took something” no longer appears after a joyful entry.

Thank you for the feedback. It finds what tests can’t.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-12

— Pick which week the therapist card covers, not just the current one. Each week shows how much is in it, so you don't hand over a near-empty card.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-09

— Drag to set how strong a feeling is, with full VoiceOver support.
— Change an emotion after you've added another one.
— Rate a skill right under it, as soon as you pick it.
— Anchor can be closed from every screen, and shows a written breathing cue if you use Reduce Motion or VoiceOver.
— Anchor turns dark between 11 pm and 6 am.
— Tap a coloured day in Insights to open it in your Journal.
— Move between weeks in the Journal, and search by emotion or skill.
— A calmer "saved" message.
— Weeks now stay correct when the clocks change.
— Remaining English text translated for Ukrainian and Russian.
