Echo is a simple emotion journal that helps you notice and name what you feel. Write down what happened, which emotion it triggered and how strong it was — then watch how your mood changes over time. What you can do: • Add entries: situation, emotion and its intensity. • Choose from many named emotions — from joy and calm to sadness or anger. • Create your own categories and emotions to match your language. • See weekly summaries and your dominant emotion. • Explore insights: emotion frequency, intensity over time and top triggers. • Mark entries to revisit in a calmer moment or bring to a therapy session. • Browse and search your full history. Gentle habit support: • An optional daily reminder helps you check in with yourself. • Export your journal to JSON, CSV or PDF whenever you want. Private by default: • Your entries are stored locally on your device in encrypted storage. • No selling of data. • Device pairing is free. Optional Premium adds an end-to-end encrypted cloud backup — the recovery phrase stays with you. Echo Premium (optional): • Premium removes ads. • Encrypted cloud backup and restore. • Sync between your devices with end-to-end encryption. • Annual plan or one-time lifetime purchase; the free version stays fully usable. Available in 11 languages, with light and dark themes. Echo is a journaling and reflection tool. It is not therapy, diagnosis or crisis support and does not replace professional help.
