Mood – Track your mood, uncover hidden needs, and find calm Mood’s mission is to analyze your moods and shed light on what they truly mean. Behind every mood lie feelings and needs, often unconscious. Recognizing them brings relief—because most needs simply want to be identified and named! This emotional hygiene, still little known, is a powerful lever for well-being: when we learn to identify our needs, we can ease inner tension and transform how we experience difficult situations. With Mood, you get: - Guided mood tracking: Share your mood, and Mood suggests the associated feelings and needs to help you understand what you’re going through. - Written or spoken situation analysis: Describe a troubling situation; Mood identifies the hidden feelings and needs, then reformulates your experience clearly—free from judgment and limiting beliefs. - Immediate relief: Often, simply expressing a need is enough to ease inner tension. - New life strategies: Mood helps you take a step back and adopt new ways of responding, transforming your habits, broadening your perspective, and experiencing situations differently. - Statistics and history: Track your moods and well-being over time. Mood is the first app that deciphers your mood to uncover hidden needs, bring you relief, and support you in evolving your life strategies—so you can experience situations differently, take care of yourself, and access more joy.

Quitting nicotine is an act of faith. You feel awful and you cannot see the healing. Lunga makes the healing visible. Connect your Apple Watch and Lunga draws your resting heart rate from before your quit day to today, your own baseline, your own recovery line. For most people that number starts drifting down within days of quitting. You get to watch it happen. Proof, not promises. WORKS FOR EVERY KIND OF NICOTINE Cigarettes, vaping, and nicotine pouches like Zyn. Backdating is welcome too: already quit last month or last year? Enter your real quit date and Lunga counts every day you have earned. YOUR RECOVERY, MEASURED - The Recovery Graph: resting heart rate, heart rate variability, walking heart rate, and cardio fitness, each drawn against your pre-quit baseline (Apple Watch required for the graph) - Health milestone timeline based on public health guidance, from 20 minutes to 1 year - Quit timer, money saved, and packs, pods, or cans not bought HELP THE MOMENT A CRAVING HITS One tap opens Craving SOS: 60 seconds of guided breathing while the urge crests and passes. Log the trigger and Lunga maps your patterns, so you learn when and why cravings come. BUILT TO SURVIVE A BAD NIGHT A slip is not a restart. Log it without shame, keep your journey, and see both numbers: days since your slip and total days since you quit. Your body keeps the progress it has made. YOUR WEEK, READ BACK TO YOU Every week Lunga writes you a short recovery report from your own data: what improved, when your cravings hit, and what helped. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your health data stays on your device. Lunga reads from Apple Health only, never writes, and no account is required. EVERYTHING HERE IS PART OF LUNGA PREMIUM Lunga requires an auto-renewable Lunga Premium subscription. Every feature described above, including the Recovery Graph, Craving SOS, the milestone timeline, slip logging, and the weekly report, needs an active subscription or free trial to use. The annual plan starts with a 3 day free trial. Cancel anytime in Settings, with the cancel link one tap away inside the app. Lunga shows your data; it isn't medical advice.
