MoodGenius is the calm, science-backed mood journal for people who want to feel better β€” without spreadsheets, charts, or guilt. Best experience: Apple Watch + iPhone MoodGenius reads sleep, activity, heart rate, and mindful minutes directly from Apple Health. The richer your health data, the sharper the correlations. (Manual metric entry on the roadmap.) Log your mood in seconds. MoodGenius quietly correlates each entry with your Apple Health data β€” sleep, activity, heart rate, mindful minutes β€” and turns the patterns into one or two specific things you can do today. Not generic wellness clichΓ©s. Not "you should sleep more." Real micro-actions, grounded in your own data: β€’ "Go to bed 30 minutes earlier tonight β€” your low-mood days follow nights under 6h sleep." β€’ "Try a 5-minute walk after lunch β€” your afternoons rate higher when you move before 2pm." β€’ "Box-breathe for 90 seconds before your next meeting β€” your stress climbs on Tuesday mornings." Why it works: β€’ Quick logging β€” under 10 seconds. A mood, an optional note, done. β€’ Apple Health–native β€” sleep stages, activity, mindful minutes feed the engine automatically. β€’ Pattern detection β€” the app finds the correlations so you don't have to read charts. β€’ Actionable insights β€” every Patterns view ends with something to do, not just something to know. β€’ Editorial design β€” calm sage palette, soft typography, no clutter, no streaks pestering you. Privacy first: β€’ Your mood data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Yours, not ours. β€’ Apple Health data is used only to generate your insights β€” never sold, never used for advertising. β€’ No ads. No data brokers. No social feed. Built for people who: β€’ Want a journal that does the analytical work for them β€’ Are tired of habit trackers that demand fifteen fields a day β€’ Already wear an Apple Watch and want it to mean something β€’ Prefer evidence-based suggestions over horoscope-style advice MoodGenius doesn't promise to fix your mood. It gives you the smallest, most likely-to-help action β€” backed by your own data β€” and gets out of the way. Start logging. The patterns will find you.

Stop staring at your phone mid-routine. MoveCue runs the exercises you already do hands-free β€” voice cues, a lock-screen timer, music that keeps playing, and now taps on your Apple Watch. You bring the routine β€” from your physio, your trainer, a YouTube channel, a printed handout, or your own head. MoveCue is the timer, the voice cue, and the lock-screen Live Activity that keeps you moving without picking up your phone. β€” New: MoveCue on Apple Watch β€” β€’ Start a workout on your wrist or your phone. MoveCue taps your wrist at every step while your phone talks you through it. β€” Run any routine, hands-free β€” β€’ Set down your phone, listen for the cue, do the rep, repeat. β€’ Voice cues call out each phase ("Hold", "Rest", "Switch sides"). β€’ Real sound cues for every phase, and haptics up to extra-hard so you feel every boundary, even with the phone in a pocket. β€’ Music keeps playing β€” MoveCue ducks during cues, never stops. β€’ Record your own voice cues, and change the order of exercises mid-workout. β€” Plan with MoveCue AI β€” β€’ Describe what you want β€” "15-minute morning mobility for stiff hips" β€” and get one session or a full weekly plan you can review, edit, and save. β€’ New: take a photo of a handout or a gym sheet, and MoveCue turns it into a workout. β€’ Optional, and only after you tap to agree. What you type or say, and any photo you attach, goes through our server to our AI provider β€” never your name, email, age, sex, height, weight or heart rate. β€” Build it once, run it forever β€” β€’ Build routines manually, start from a starter routine, pick from the exercise library, or let MoveCue AI do it. β€’ Reps, Timed hold, and Flow β€” with per-set reps, holds, sides, weights, rests and supersets. β€’ No stock videos, no content treadmill. You bring what your therapist or trainer gave you. β€” Share routines with anyone β€” β€’ Send any workout as a link or a QR image. The receiver adds it to their library in one tap. β€’ No MoveCue? They get a clean web preview of the routine. β€” Stay with it, on your terms β€” β€’ Reminders on the days you commit to β€” start now, snooze for 15 or 30 minutes, or skip the day. β€’ Quiet Hours pause reminders during your sleep window. β€’ Off-days and skipped days don't break your streak. β€” See your progress β€” β€’ Personal records, with a chart for each exercise. β€’ New: a body map of the areas you've trained, and a Body balance card. β€’ Fix what you logged after a workout, and your records update. β€’ A heat-map colored by how each session felt, streaks, and badges to earn. β€’ Save workouts to Apple Health (optional). Export a PDF or CSV report. β€” What MoveCue won't do β€” β€’ Make medical claims. MoveCue helps you follow your routine β€” it doesn't replace your physio, trainer, or doctor. β€’ Push notifications guilting you about missed days. β€’ Show streak rankings, leaderboards, or social pressure. β€” Pricing β€” Free forever, with limits: β€’ 3 saved workouts β€’ Last 7 days of stats and history β€’ Can receive shared workouts β€’ Manual building and starter routines Pro (monthly or yearly subscription): unlimited workouts, full history and heat-map, send + receive shares, MoveCue AI with photo import, and PDF and CSV export.
