About this app

Happyfeed is a photo and video gratitude journal designed to make you happier by reflecting on 3 good things each day.

Research shows gratitude journaling can improve your mental health and help you feel 10% happier by focusing on the good things in life. Keep entries private or join a Pod to share with a group of close friends.

📓Daily Gratitude Journal App
A gorgeous mental health journaling app designed to reflect on joy everyday. Add photos, videos, or locations to your daily gratitude. Your memories are private-first but sharable in groups perfect for couples, friends, or family. Stay motivated with gratitude streaks and self-growth

🔭 Throwbacks: Reflect on Happy Memories
After one week, you can view memories in your gratitude journal from that day one in the past - starting with one week ago. This period grows to months and even years. Take a second to reflect and get the big picture of your personal growth.

🌿 Pods: Shared Group Journal
Pods are private groups for sharing memories, video diary entries, a photo a day, or daily journal progress. Show love by sending emojis reactions! It's a unique way to send gratitude plus photos as a couple or with friends and family. If you're looking for a shared journal or diary, that's Pods!

👋 Journal Prompts Everyday
Every morning receive a new daily journaling prompt as a reminder to be grateful and write 3 good things for your self-growth. Quotes about happiness, a fun fact, or little jokes to prompt joy & positivity in your life.

✨ Gratitude Jar
After a couple of weeks, view past photo or video diary moments using the Gratitude Jar. Shake to see one random memory and feel happier in seconds instead of minutes of scrolling through a feed. Past happy moments may even prompt more gratitude!

👩‍🔬 Benefits of a Gratitude Journal
Keeping a gratitude journal can help boost your mood and overall happiness. Studies have shown it can make you even 10% happier - take 5 minutes to write down 3 good things every day. Taking a second for grateful reflection can help you cultivate happier thoughts. Gratitude journals are the perfect practice for your personal growth!

🔐 Private, Secure, & Passcode Locked
An account is required in order to keep your photo diary safe and available on any device. Syncing is securely encrypted using HTTPS endpoints. Cloud storage allows us to backup your moments and photos so you never lose your gratitude journal. Lock your diary with a passcode to keep your joy private.

😄 3 Good Things
We designed Happyfeed as a simple gratitude journal to build a “happy feed” of pictures, video, and moments from your life. It’s based on practices from positive psychology research - starting with 3 good things. Reflecting for just 5 minutes can make you 10% happier and track your personal growth & mood. Groups, photos, and the Happiness Jar help you spread joy and build a positive self-growth habit.

I really like this app. I found it to be super helpful and I love being able to add photos to my entries. It's really great to mark special days with a custom emoji. My only qualm is that I can't access any photos I take from within the app itself without going each entry and downloading them. Without the paid version, I have to shuffle my monthly recap until I see the photo I want. Photos taken in the app should be stored such that the user can access them from outside of the app

Thanks for the review and that's a great suggestion! Maybe we could automatically save new photos to an album on your device? If you have other ideas please reach out anytime - matt@happyfeed.co

I really like Happyfeed! I have noticed a positive change in my outlook after starting. However, the app is not user friendly. Also, the commenting is completely crazy. I've been in pods with people for two years, some of them can comment on my entries but I can't comment on theirs?? I can only comment on one person from my pod. I would like to be able to interact with my pods more, but it's totally random on who I am able to interact with. it's annoying.

Hi Kayleigh, thank you for the review! I'd love to hear more about what isn't user friendly in the app, or if it's just the issue with commenting. I agree the rules are a little confusing but essentially (1) people in Random Pods cannot comment by default unless (2) you follow them + it's shared with followers... please email me matt@happyfeed.co

The app is very simple and is missing a few features. I wish there was a calendar view of all of the days I've done. I also wish that, when someone shares a photo in a pod, that you could click on the photo to enlarge it. It shows up cropped and small in the feed which is cumbersome. Overall I wish there was an easier way to look over the days you've completed. Maybe like a journal to flip through.

Hi Carlie, thanks so much for all the feedback! The calendar is a work in progress right now and we just added a feature to be able to tap a photo to see it fullscreen in Pods. I also really dig the flip book idea - generally I think we could do a lot there! If you have any more ideas please feel free to email me at matt@happyfeed.co 😄
