## What is TreeHole?

Something on your mind? Let’s talk.

TreeHole is an AI chat journal for everyday reflection. Share what happened and how you feel in a natural conversation. TreeHole organizes your conversations into private journal entries, building a record of your life without asking you to face a blank page.

When a future conversation connects with something you wrote before, TreeHole can recall the relevant entry and bring that part of your story back into the moment.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Chat with an AI companion about your day and your feelings
• Turn conversations into journal entries automatically
• Revisit relevant memories during future conversations
• Optionally create a digital avatar shaped by your journal and voice, with access chosen by you
• Use voice input when speaking feels easier than typing
• Turn on auto read-aloud to hear AI replies
• Choose light or dark appearance
• Protect app access with Face ID or a passcode

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
Your conversations, journal entries, and records are stored with AES-256-GCM encryption at rest. Your digital avatar is optional, and you decide who may access it.

TreeHole is designed for personal reflection and everyday emotional companionship. It is not a medical or emergency service.

• Offline journals, emotion insights, cached chats, and pending messages are stored separately for each account—no manual re-sync when you switch back.
• Improved multilingual read-aloud, chat input, journal additions, and overall stability.

### 1.0.13 — 2026-08-13

This update makes TreeHole more reliable when you return to the app or your connection is unstable:
• Fixed an issue that could leave the app frozen and unresponsive after time in the background.
• If online content can’t finish loading, TreeHole now automatically switches to its built-in version.
• Additional performance and stability improvements.

### 1.0.12 — 2026-08-11

Digital Avatar has been completely redesigned:
• See the anonymous life topics visitors are curious about—never their identities orexact questions.
• Open a topic and privately add memories or context your avatar is missing.
• Shape how your avatar speaks and what matters to you.
• Invite specific people, revoke access, or turn your avatar off at any time.

The new Feeling Trail transforms journal entries into monthly, yearly, and all-time views. Follow emotional shifts, recurring themes, and important events while keeping unrecorded days visible instead of filling in the gaps.

### 1.0.11 — 2026-07-23

Introducing Feeling Trail:
• See daily comfort through an intuitive heatmap
• Review your feelings by month, year, or across your entire journal history
• Notice meaningful shifts around important events you explicitly recorded
• Open any day to see your main feeling and energy level
• Adjust a result or exclude a day to keep your trail true to your experience
• Bring older journal entries into one continuous, long-term view

Feeling Trail is designed for personal reflection, not psychological assessment.
