Your camera roll is full. But your weeks still feel blurry. Dear Today is a private visual diary and mood journal designed for busy people who want emotional clarity without writing pages. Every day, you capture one photo, choose your mood, and add a short note. It takes less than a minute. No social feed. No likes. No performance. Just one intentional moment. Over time, Dear Today turns your entries into: • A visual timeline of your life • Mood patterns across weeks and months • Emotional insights you can actually see • Monthly photo recaps and collages • Gentle reflection prompts It combines a photo diary, mood tracker, and self reflection tool in one simple ritual you can sustain. You don’t need to document everything. Just one photo. One feeling. Because memories are visual. And understanding them changes how you live. Terms of use: https://www.chippstudio.ee/dear_today/terms
