Needs update

The display of the “ moods” colors in the calendar is very light and very hard to see. Please fix this so we can see it better.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for your review. You can change the colors by selecting one of many already crafted color palettes or create your own!

Finally, some good mood log app!

Im the son of a therapist and a student going into therapy myself and it’s always baffling how desperate mood apps are to get astonishing fees out of their users for apps as functional or less functional than pixels.

This app does have a premium for the full features, but an understandable one. Storing one photo from me a day is costly for the developer, asking for money to cover that is more than reasonable.

If you stay a free user exclusively pixels will give you exactly what it says, an easy intuitive and customizable mood tracker app. With how many apps behave these days thats above and beyond in my book.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review! Coming from someone with your background, it genuinely means a lot. You articulated so well the vision I have for the app. Hope Pixels serves you well on your journey.

Simple & helpful

I’ve been using pixels for about two years now, not intending to use it this long originally. I love how simple it is. I can easily go back and look at previous entries and changes the way things look in easily.

Great app, no pushy sales

I’ve been using it for a few weeks now, and it was a great experience right out of the box. After tinkering with the labels a little bit I am effectively tracking my mood and learned a lot about myself.

Thank you for the great app.

Much love for Pixels ❤️

Okay so let me start by saying I absolutely adore this app incredibly much and i tell all my friends about it and literally send it to them through text. I got it at first to track my mood with work to see what it was majority, but now It’s so much more. It has become a positive ritual in my daily life and I'm super grateful to have a daily journal. Simple but powerful, customizable, and free from annoying ads but you're willing to watch the few to support the app, and I pay for photos too which is super reasonably priced. Much love for this app ❤️
