Time Blocks is a one-line diary. Six times a day, you jot a single line and pick a mood - that is the whole habit. Ten seconds, and you are done. This is not a timer and not a task manager. Time Blocks is a retrospective journal: instead of planning what you will do, you pause a few times a day and notice what you actually did and how it felt. HOW IT WORKS - Your day is split into six fixed 4-hour blocks - The current block is highlighted with the time remaining - When a block ends, write one line and choose a mood emoji - Your calendar fills up with six mood dots per day - One line for today: sum up the whole day in a single sentence FEATURES - One-line reflections: no pressure to write long entries - Mood tracking with a simple emoji per block - Calendar view: see each day as six colored mood dots - Streak counter to keep your reflection habit alive - Works fully offline: no account, no sign-up - Zero ads — no banners, no pop-ups, no forced videos. - Light, fast, and private: your journal stays on your device CALM BY DESIGN No alarms shouting at you, no productivity guilt. Just a gentle rhythm of looking back every four hours. Over weeks, the mood dots become a picture of your life you have never seen before. Start with the block you are in right now. PRO (ONE-TIME PURCHASE) Optional. Unlocks the deeper look back: - Weekly report: mood mix, record rate, vs last week - Monthly wrap-up with your best run - Year in Pixels — a year of moods at a glance - Retro: weekly, monthly and yearly recaps written from your own entries Everything free today stays free.
