Track mood and sleep together. MoodRise helps you notice the relationship between how you feel and how you rest—without turning wellbeing into a chore. Quick check-ins make logging easy, while simple trends help you spot what repeats: better nights, rougher weeks, and the small shifts in between. Simple by design: Log mood in moments that fit your day. Capture sleep alongside mood so the story stays connected.See patterns over time—clear enough to act on, calm enough to stick with. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s a steadier view of you, powered by lightweight logging and trends that reward showing up. Connect your Oura Ring data (Optional):If you use Oura, you can connect your ring to add ring-backed sleep context to your picture of the day. It’s optional by design: the app stays useful on its own, and Oura becomes the extra layer when you want deeper nightly detail next to your mood notes.Built for consistency:We care more about sustainable habits than streak pressure. IMPORTANT NOTE ON OURA INTEGRATION:The Oura integration is entirely optional and requires a separate, active Oura account and an Oura Ring (sold separately). MoodRise is an independently developed application and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Ōura Health Oy.
