About

Activity Record

Read full description

Activity Record is a simple hour-by-hour log of your day. Each hour, you write down what you were doing and rate how strongly you felt one feeling you choose to follow, from 0 for not at all to 100 for the most intense it gets. You can also rate pleasure, how much you enjoyed the hour, and mastery, how much you felt you accomplished given how hard it was. It’s for anyone who wants to see how their days actually go, hour by hour, whether they keep the record to themselves or share it with someone they trust. Logging takes a few seconds. Tap Log this hour, type what you were doing, and move the slider. Pick your feeling from a feelings wheel or write your own, add other feelings you noticed and a note if you want, and reuse the activity from the hour before when nothing changed. Missed a few hours? Catch up later, mark that you were asleep, or save and go straight to the next open hour. After eight rated hours, Patterns opens. It shows maps of your ratings by hour and by day, along with plain sentences about the times of day, days of the week, and activities that went with higher and lower ratings in your record. Your days lists every day you logged, so you can open one and read it back hour by hour. Patterns only describe what you entered. What you make of them is up to you. To keep or share a copy, export a PDF of one day or a date range, with a cover, contents, maps, a week at a glance, and each day you logged. You can also copy a day as text, export a spreadsheet, or save a backup file. Reminders arrive at the hours you choose, up to 12 a day, in general words that never show what you logged. The widget for your Home Screen or Lock Screen shows which hours today are filled in and opens the current hour. On iOS 18 and later, add the Log this hour control to Control Center, the Lock Screen, or the Action button, or just ask Siri. Short Learn articles explain how the record works, how to choose a feeling, and how to read your patterns. Help now keeps crisis lines one tap away. Your record stays on your device unless you turn on iCloud sync. You can lock the app with Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode, and delete everything whenever you like. In English and Spanish, with ratings from 0 to 100 or 0 to 10, a 12-hour or 24-hour clock, and a light or dark appearance. Free, with no account or ads and nothing to buy. Activity Record is a personal log for education and reflection. It is not therapy or medical care, it is not a medical device, and it does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. If you have concerns about your mental or physical health, talk with a qualified professional. In an emergency, call 911. If you are in crisis in the United States, call or text 988.

Reps is a journal for your hobbies: log what you did and how it felt, in about ten seconds. Or go deeper into each entry to make it yours forever. WHAT REPS DOES • Log it in about ten seconds: the activity, one of five feelings, done • Make it a memory: add a note, a photo, the people who were there • View your weeks and months with color, split by activity and feelings • Tap a friend's name to see everything you did together • No account needed: Reps works offline, from the first entry • Free, with no ads and no subscription. Pay only if you want to sync across devices. A JOURNAL, NOT A SCOREBOARD You see what you keep coming back to and what felt best. Quiet days are part of the story, and the app stays quiet too: you open it when you have something to write. YOURS Keep everything on this phone, or sign in to back up and sync across your devices. Either way, your reps are yours. Reps started because I wanted to track the good weeks: surf, boxing, dancing, altinha, the gym, a book on the balcony. If your weeks look anything like that, this journal is for you.
