  • How do I delete a mood record?
  • While browsing your history, select a mood record you wish to delete, shake the device or click Action button, then press "Delete" - iMoodJournal will suggest deleting a selected record.

  • How can I edit an existing mood record?
  • iMoodJournal's editing experience is designed to aid reflection rather than retrospection, i.e. by all means you are encouraged to spontaneously grasp your experience in the present moment. But you can edit both text and date. You can do so by tapping arrow button while viewing your record on the history chart or in photo gallery, and then by tapping "Edit" button that appears on the screen - usual editing dialogue will appear. You can now add tags, correct a typo, or just add some notes.

  • How do I ensure that my records remain private if I leave my iPhone unattended?
  • We have implemented in-app Passcode Lock that can be enabled in Options. It prevents occasional users of the phone from reading your diary or changing your settings (yet you can add new mood records without entering the passcode).

  • Can I customize labels or colors on mood scale to accommodate it to my emotions?
  • Yes, you can do this using the option "Moods" in settings. However, we encourage you to treat the scale as a characteristic of your general wellbeing and make notes about emotions using hashtags like #angry or #cheerful.

  • Can I track sleep & medication with iMoodJournal?
  • Yes, you can use hashtags #sleep:8hours, or #aspirin:1pill. Note: there should be no spaces between your tag, a colon and a numeric value with a descriptor. You'll be able view all records tagged #sleep by tapping the hashtag anywhere in the app (with one exception of record editing screen).

  • Can I view my data outside of the app (in PDF or CSV format)?
  • Yes, iMoodJournal allows you to export your mood records to Excel or Numbers in Comma-Separated Values (CSV) format, or to a printable PDF document that you can also email to your doctor, save to Dropbox, or save to your computer using iTunes.

  • How can I ensure that my data will not be lost if I lose my iPhone, buy new one?
  • In both cases you are protected by backups that you can do using iTunes manually or automatically using Apple's iCloud free service. You just restore your new device from the backup and all your data will be there. If for some reason your apps did not download automatically after restoring your device from iCloud backup, just install iMoodJournal again, your old data will be there intact.

  • How can I ensure that my data will not be lost if I delete the app accidentally? (Dropbox backup)
  • You can use free service called Dropbox to backup your data to the cloud and restore it from the backup. This function is available in the Options section of the app.

  • Can I add a new mood record in the past if I missed a day?
  • Yes, you can change the date and time of recording when creating or editing a record. To do this, click on the date and select the required date and time.

  • Can I exchange data between devices?
  • Yes, you can exchange data and photos between your devices using iCloud or Dropbox services. Please make sure synchronization is enabled in iMoodJournal Settings. Each device connected to Internet can have actual data.
