Cercle is a mood-sharing app for the people who matter most. Every day, take a moment to check in with yourself. Pick your mood, name the feeling underneath, and choose what you need right now. Then see how your friends are doing; no likes, no comments, no pressure. Just honest emotional check-ins with the people you care about. STAY CONNECTED WITHOUT THE NOISE See your friends' moods at a glance. Send a heart, a hug, or a nudge to let someone know you're thinking of them. Know how your friends are doing at a glance and take action based on your bandwidth. Take the guessing out of friendships, and reach out without reaching out. No public feeds, no algorithms, no ads. YOUR DAILY MOOD CHECK-IN Tap how you're feeling from 10 core moods, then get more specific with sub-emotions. Feeling anxious? Maybe it's "overwhelmed" or "restless." Feeling happy? Maybe it's "grateful" or "inspired." Cercle helps you build emotional vocabulary and daily self-awareness. YOUR CERCLE, YOUR RULES Add only the friends you actually want to share with. Set visibility to Friends, Favorites Only, or Private for each entry. You decide who sees what. STREAKS AND WELLNESS Build a daily check-in streak. After logging your mood, get gentle, non-clinical wellness suggestions tailored to how you're feeling — like "Try box breathing" or "Call a friend." BUILT INTO YOUR LIFE - Home screen widget shows your friends' moods - iMessage extension lets you log moods and check on friends right from your texts - Siri shortcuts: "How are my friends in Cercle?" or "Log my mood as calm" - Text your mood via SMS PRIVACY FIRST Your emotional data is yours. Cercle never sells your data, never shows ads, and never shares your information with third parties. You can delete any mood entry or your entire account at any time.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mindful Nation at 4.6 against Cercle.me's 4.0. Mindful Nation also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 4). Cercle.me's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Mindful Nation holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 19 and 4 respectively.

Mindful Nation ships an update monthly, Cercle.me every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
