Your emotions deserve more than words. Duora turns daily feelings into colorful art and brings you closer to the people you love. Whether tracking your own emotional journey or sharing it with a partner, Duora combines mood journaling with relationship insights β€” all through the simple act of painting. PAINT YOUR MOOD SPHERE Express how you feel by painting a 3D sphere with emotion colors. Each feeling has its own shade β€” pick what resonates, paint as much or as little as you want. Three brush sizes and undo support let you create a unique emotional portrait every day. The app automatically analyzes your color distribution to generate a mood report. 7 POSITIVE & 7 NEGATIVE EMOTIONS Happiness, Peace, Love, Hope, Excitement, Gratitude, Pride, Sadness, Anger, Anxiety, Fear, Shame, Stress, Disgust β€” a balanced spectrum that captures the full range of how you feel. INSTANT MOOD SHARING Share how you feel right now with a single tap. Pick your current emotion and your partner sees it instantly on their screen β€” no words needed. Your live mood appears directly on your partner’s home screen widget, so they always know how you’re feeling throughout the day. A quick, intimate way to stay emotionally connected even when you’re apart. COUPLE MODE β€” FEEL TOGETHER Duora’s standout feature: share your emotional world with someone special. Connect with your partner, friend, or spouse using a simple 6-digit code. Compare daily spheres side by side and see your top 5 emotions highlighted together. EMPATHY TEST Guess what your partner felt today. Pick 3 emotions out of the list and see how accurate your prediction was. Track your empathy score and streaks over time. A meaningful way to understand each other better. HARMONY SCORE Measure your emotional sync on a scale of 0-100. Weekly trend charts show how your connection evolves. Stay aware of emotional alignment with the person who matters most. RELATIONSHIP WEATHER Your harmony score becomes a weather metaphor. Sunny (75+) means you’re in great sync. Cloudy (50-74) means balanced but watchful. Rainy (25-49) signals a challenging period. Stormy (below 25) means it’s time to talk. BREATHING EXERCISE Calm your mind with an interactive breathing exercise. Press and hold the sphere to expand, release to contract. Graduated haptic feedback guides your rhythm. Practice solo or together with your partner. MOOD CALENDAR & HISTORY Every day is marked with your dominant emotion color on a monthly calendar. Tap any day to see the full report: sphere, mood distribution, score (0-10), photos, voice notes, and thoughts. Monthly charts reveal long-term emotional patterns. ADD MEMORIES Attach up to 3 photos, record a 60-second voice note, or write free-text thoughts alongside your daily sphere. Build a rich emotional archive over time. HOME SCREEN WIDGET See today’s sphere, weekly mood chart, harmony score, and your partner’s live mood β€” all without opening the app. Know how your partner is feeling at a glance, right from your home screen. SMART NOTIFICATIONS Daily journaling reminders, streak celebrations (7 days, 30 days...), partner activity alerts, weekly mood summaries, and empathy test invitations keep you engaged. Get notified when your partner shares their mood. PROFILE & STATS Track total entries, longest streak, most dominant emotion, partner connection status, and duration. Customize language, notifications, and account settings. DESIGNED FOR WELLBEING Dark theme with deep purple-black backgrounds and vibrant purple-pink accents.

About

Inside Out

Read full description

During psychotherapy, I discovered I have issues with emotion recognition. This discovery led to this simple yet really helpful app for me. It allows you to easily track your emotions and see how your mood swings, how you feel throughout the day, and when things are clearly going off the rails. Features! - Nice and glossy interface with beautifully orange buttons (I love it) - Cute glass emojis - Log of records (you can delete your emotions! but not irl; this feature is currently in development) - Statistics (I'm still working on it) - Cloud synchronization, so you won't lose track of grief records - Random reminders, set amount and range of notifications you want to receive from the app (so you can choose how many times during the day you want to be mad also because of the app) Feature requests are welcome!
