ExplOdin turns overwhelm into clarity. It's a warm, playful wellness companion for anyone who freezes on decisions or feels their anxiety spike when choices pile up — a way to steady yourself in the moment and think a choice all the way through. MEET YOUR MOOD-ORB A living companion that mirrors how you feel — it puffs up and "explodes" when you're overwhelmed, then breathes and settles as you work through things. Watching it calm down is oddly satisfying, and it makes progress feel real. STEADY YOURSELF IN THE MOMENT When stress spikes, tap one button for fast, evidence-based relief — physiological sighs, box breathing, 5-4-3-2-1 grounding, muscle release, and more. A simple 0–100 stress gauge (your own self-rating) shows it easing. THINK THE CHOICE THROUGH Break any hard decision down with clear, guided frameworks — a weighted matrix, pros & cons, impact vs effort, values fit, and 10-10-10. ExplOdin does honest arithmetic on the weights and scores you set to surface a Clarity Score — you can always see exactly why, and the decision is always yours. LEARN FROM WHAT HAPPENS Log how a decision actually turned out, spot your patterns over time, and build real confidence. Gentle streaks and milestones keep it encouraging, never shaming. A LITTLE AI HELP WITH WORDS (never with the decision) Stuck at a blank page or a spiraling thought? Optional "Untangle" prompts suggest options, reframe a worry into one kind next step, or help you reflect — it only ever helps you find words; it never scores or makes your choice. EXPLODIN PRO (optional subscription) The relief tools and core decision loop are always free. Pro unlocks the Values and 10-10-10 frameworks, unlimited decisions and criteria, full history, stress-pattern insights, unlimited AI, and extra orb looks. - Monthly ($6.99) or annual ($39.99), with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in Settings ExplOdin is a wellness and decision-support tool, not therapy, and it does not provide medical, mental-health, or crisis care.
