An outlook uses recent check-ins to estimate a possible mood for tomorrow. It was trained and evaluated on synthetic data; real-world prediction accuracy has not been established. It is not a medical or diagnostic tool. An iCloud account is required to save and sync journal entries. Drafts and mood check-ins can be kept on your device while offline. Apple Intelligence mood suggestions require a supported device and available system model; a simpler on-device analysis is used when available otherwise. I’d love to hear how Mirrorly can get better.
