Yep, it's all done auto-magically by them. We didn't push it to MacOS App Store.

Then is actually only available on iPhones and iPads.

Macbooks with M1 can run those due to M1 magic, but to enable it on Intel-based Macs, the app actually has to be built for the MacOS unfortunately.

Thanks!

Opposite to many of mood journals (including Daylio), Then is about more than just mood.

First, it’s focused on understanding your emotions through your activities (i.e. there is no way to track mood without capturing what you did) and showing you correlations between them.

Second, it also allows you to capture time spent on each activity and helps you reflect on it, irrespective of the mood (we actually have some users who use Then as a time tracker alternative).

In a way, you can think of it as a tool that marries time trackers and mood journals.

No, iOS only for now. Depending on the usage, we might expand to Android and Web

The app is actually free. Only the advanced features are paywalled.

Being data nerds as well, we were scratching our own itch with Then.

We tried to add a few things to make it a part of our routine, like push notifications and homescreen widget.

But what worked the best for me personally was seeing the value (i.e insights on my activities): after that it got easier to remember to track.

One other thing was focusing only on things that mattered. At first I was trying to track every single activity every day, but then realized that things like showering didn’t really give much insight. So now I primarily focus on activities that are energy draining or which I want to be conscious about (focused work, meetings, side projects, walking, sport etc.)

oh wow, that's a lot of entries!

thanks so much for flagging!
