I like the overall concept of this app and can see the potential for something like this to really help with mood monitoring and tracking of mood trends over longer periods of time. I really found myself wishing that there was the option to include a light notification along with the sound/vibration. I think I missed more notifications because I'm so used to just glancing at my phone to see if a light is flashing for a notification if I've stepped away at all. Once I remembered to always actually open the phone to check when I returned to the room I started catching more of the notifications.

I'm stuck Hi! I got stuck in the question "when do you usually go to bed" after pressing forward the app would say "please check your network connection". I have tried uninstalling, redownloading and installing the app but it didn't work, I also have a decent internet conncection. Please help me for I am doing this for the survey, thank you very much!

Waste of time I've contacted the school about not receiving enough notifications and how the hit will expire before then. No response back from them. If you check out turkopticon, you'll notice I'm not the only one. The school has actually told one to return the hit to avoid rejection after that person spent 3 weeks using the app. My advice..return the hit and uninstall.

Definitely worth the initial work. What a great insight into my thought pattern. I did not realize how negative my thoughts were compared to other people.

Where's my mind I've tried everything under the sun I'm barely getting notifications I've contacted the school many time and maybe just give me the same advice that never worked turn your phone off and back on make sure your notifications are set properly I'm supposed to get it 4 times a day I haven't gotten any today and I got one yesterday I have to complete 28 + 2 weeks I've got 9 in a week that means and two weeks I'm only going to get 18 which is nowhere near the 28th I need.

Cool way to learn about what I spend my time thinking about, and how that compares to other people. Should lead to very interesting research on this topic, too.
