ClovePad — Mood Journal

ClovePad is a mood journal for people who do not want a wellness platform.

There is no account, no streak nagging, no feed and no network connection. You open it, pick how the day went, and close it again. Everything you write stays in a database file on your phone.

One tap is a complete entry

The scale runs nine steps, from Storm to Radiant, with Steady sitting exactly in the middle — a flat day is a real answer, not a compromise between two others. Tap a shade and you are done. Everything below it is optional.

Say what shaped it, if you want to

Attach any of sixteen factors — sleep, work, movement, friends, solitude, money, food, travel and more — and ClovePad will tell you later which ones actually move your average, and by how much. Add an energy reading if you find it useful; a rough day can still be a high-energy one.

A note only when you have something to say

Thirty rotating prompts sit above the note field for the evenings when the words are slow to arrive. Skip them and leave the note blank; nothing in the app treats an empty note as an unfinished entry.

Then watch the shape appear

- A breathing ring on the Today tab showing where the day stands.
- Seven days in bars, coloured by mood.
- A thirty-day trend line.
- A twelve-week calendar heat map — the view that makes a rough fortnight impossible to argue with.
- A factor comparison ranking what lifts your average and what drags it down.
- A distribution of every shade you have used.

Ten milestones, tied to the journal itself

First Mark, Week Held, Full Palette, Deep Note and six more. They track real thresholds in your own log — entries written, days in a row, shades used, factors tagged — rather than a parallel points system invented to keep you busy.

Genuinely offline

ClovePad ships with no HTTP client and no analytics library. There is nothing to sign in to, nothing syncing in the background, and no third-party SDK watching. It works identically in airplane mode. Your entries are removed completely when you uninstall the app.

Also included

- Full journal with swipe-to-delete, filters by mood band, and an edit view for any past entry.
- A profile with your own name, a glyph you pick, and the numbers your log adds up to.
- Settings for daily goal, energy tracking, prompt rotation, compact rows, week start day, and a reduced-motion mode that stops every ambient animation.
- Share a plain-text summary of your journal whenever you want to — and never otherwise.
