What color was your day today? Hue Journal is a minimal diary app where you record each day with just one color. No need to find the right words -- simply choose a color, and your day is captured. JUST PICK A COLOR Choose from 12 curated colors -- Coral, Sunflower, Tangerine, Mint, Sky, Peach, Lavender, Rose, and more. Trust your instinct. The color you're drawn to says something quiet about your day. Text is entirely optional. Write when you feel like it, skip when you don't. This is your diary, your way. YOUR CALENDAR BECOMES A MOSAIC As you record each day, your calendar fills with color tiles that form a mosaic -- a visual portrait of your month. Scroll back through your weeks and months. Patterns emerge. A burst of warm tones here, a calm stretch of blues there. Your life, painted one day at a time. GENTLE COLOR INSIGHTS Once a week and once a month, Hue Journal offers a quiet look at the colors you've been choosing. Bright tones dominated your week? Gentle hues filled your month? These insights are not diagnoses -- they're small moments of reflection, inspired by color psychology research. A chance to notice, not to be told. SHARE YOUR MOSAIC Turn your monthly calendar mosaic into an image and share it. No words needed -- your colors speak for themselves. FEATURES - 12-color palette for daily mood recording - Optional text notes - Calendar mosaic view - Weekly & monthly color insights - Social media sharing - Insight notifications (weekly & monthly, opt-in in Settings) - English and Japanese support PERFECT FOR - People who want to journal but struggle with writing - Anyone who loves color, design, and visual expression - Those looking for a low-effort daily reflection habit - Fans of mood tracking without the clinical feel Free to use (with ads).

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MoodPixels at none against Hue Journal's shown. Hue Journal's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
