Give the entry a purpose
A selected mood is a subjective label attached to one record. The app offers a small menu, so the available word may only approximate what you meant.
Write and save deliberately
Use a note to qualify mixed or ambiguous feelings when that distinction matters. “Good overall, tired after work” can coexist with a single selected label without forcing a false simplicity.
Archived sessions retain their journal fields and are included in JSON backups. Moving a record out of the main list therefore does not remove its private wording from the device or from a new export.
Use a concrete example
Frequency of a label is influenced by whether you chose to journal, when you wrote, and which option felt closest. Unlabeled records contain no comparable observation.
| Check | Practical meaning |
|---|---|
| Label | Self-selected description |
| Cause | Not established by the entry |
Read the note in context
Mood entries do not independently establish a health condition, a treatment effect, or the cause of a feeling. Keep those interpretive limits visible when reviewing the log.
The journal fields are optional. Mood choices are Calm, Good, Tired, Hungry, or no selection; notes are plain text up to 5,000 characters, and weight is an optional positive number in kilograms.
A worked walkthrough
Imagine a week in which you recorded Tired on two sessions and left five sessions without a mood. The ledger contains two self-selected descriptions and five missing labels; it does not establish that tiredness occurred on exactly two days. You may have been more likely to write when something stood out, or the available menu may not have matched other occasions. If one Tired note mentions a late work shift and another has no explanation, those entries also differ in context. Read them as observations with varying detail rather than a controlled comparison. You can use the pattern to form a question you want to discuss or reflect on, but the app has not measured a cause. Keeping missing data distinct from an explicit label prevents a simple menu from being interpreted as a complete assessment.
Fastly is a lifestyle timer and journal. These notes explain the app and offer reflection prompts. They are not medical advice or a prescribed eating schedule.
