Shappo
Read full descriptionHide full description
Did you do something today? "Got out of bed." "Drank some water." "Finished work." — That alone is something to be proud of. Shappo is a micro journal for your wellbeing. One tap turns what you did today into a bubble floating in the sky - no writing required. HOW IT WORKS Just touch the screen. A bubble gently appears and floats upward. Shappo, a little bubble spirit, watches your bubbles and reacts with joy. Tap a bubble to give it a label. "Woke up." "Ate." "Walked." — Pick from presets or write your own. Bubbles of the same size merge into bigger, more beautiful ones. Drag them around with your finger to merge them yourself. The more you touch, the bigger and more colorful your sky becomes. WHAT THIS APP IS NOT Shappo has no to-do lists. No reminders. No streaks. It does not manage what you should do. It only records what you did. Even on days when you feel like you did nothing, try touching the screen. "Woke up." "Drank water." — Shappo will smile every time. Open Shappo at night, lying in bed. Look back on your day, and you might be surprised how many bubbles are floating in your sky. WHO IS SHAPPO? Shappo is a bubble spirit. A tiny fairy who appears wherever someone blows bubbles, just to play. When you float a bubble, Shappo looks happy. When you float many, Shappo looks even happier. The sky changes with the time of day. Clear blue in the morning, orange at sunset, quiet navy at night. Shappo is always there.

Done Diary is a simple diary app for recording what you accomplished today and giving yourself credit for the small things. It is not made to push you to do more. It is made to help you notice what you finished, what you kept up with, and the small steps you took today. You can record what you did today, things you want to do later, and daily habits. At the end of the day, you can also add your mood and a short note to gently reflect on your day. Your records can be reviewed in Days by month. Use the list or calendar view to look back on what you have been building over time. Recommended for people who: ・want to focus on what they did, not what they could not do ・want a diary that is easy to continue ・want to track habits and small actions gently ・want to end each day with a little more self-recognition Done Diary is not about trying harder. It is about noticing what you already did today. Keep small records, and look back on your everyday progress.
