It can be challenging to self-reflect on how we are feeling at any given moment. As time goes on, it is even more challenging to remember how we felt at some point in the past (the good and bad). Gendo helps people exploring their gender identity as well as those undergoing a gender transition. I noticed a need for this app when shadowing an incredibly inspirational Endocrinologist in West Virginia: Dr. Jessica Perini. With Gendo, enjoy logging your gender, mood, and any notes that come to mind. You can view past entries, edit these past entries, and delete them as well. Your entries can also be viewed on the analytics page to allow a quick and impactful analysis of your feelings and gender identity. We really hope you find that you find this app simple and helpful! Features: - Log your mood and gender - Log any thoughts that come to mind - Keep a log organized by time of your journal entries - View your entries of mood and gender in a graphically organized manner - This app is free and does not collect any personal information.
