How We Feel is a free app created by scientists, designers, engineers, and therapists to help people better understand their emotions and find strategies to help them navigate their emotions in the moment. Conceived in conjunction with Yale University's Center for Emotional Intelligence and based on the work of Dr Marc Brackett, How We Feel helps people find the right word to describe how they feel while tracking their sleep, exercise, and health trends using HealthKit in order to spot patterns over time.

Our data privacy terms are clear and easy-to-understand: all of your data is kept on your device unless you opt-in to send an anonymized version of your check-ins to be used in research to help more people.
Whether you are downloading this app in order to build better relationships, make your emotions to work for you, not against you, improve how you handle stress and anxiety or simply to feel better, How We Feel will help you identify patterns through daily HealthKit tracking and find emotional regulation strategies that will work for you. The How We Feel friends feature allows you to share how you feel with the people you trust most in real time, strengthening your most important relationships.
Filled with step-by-step video strategies you can do in as little as one minute on themes like "Change Your Thinking" to help you address negative thought patterns with cognitive strategies; "Move Your Body" to express and release emotions through movement strategies;"Be Mindful" to gain perspective and minimize the negative impact of misunderstood emotions with mindfulness strategies; "Reach Out" to build intimacy and trust, two important tools for emotional wellbeing, with social strategies.

Amazing app
Can’t believe this app is free. Amazing.
One thing I miss is that when I add an entry for a previous day (I like to add them the next day morning) the stats from “More Data” like sleep weather, exercise etc. Doesn’t update to the changes date. That mess up with the data.
Discovery of the year
This app is unique. Probably the best I’ve ever downloaded.
Thank you!
It’s grate!
I’ve never seen such a pleasant and easy-to-use psycho-educational option. The design is very nice and intuitive (I really like the shapes and colors in representations of emotions).
The only thing that I would ask for is an option that allows you to add your own notes to particular emotions permanently, beyond specific moments. English is my second language and I don’t mind for the app to be in English, but I would love to be able to translate names of emotions for myself or add some tips for/associations for specific emotions.
Awesome!
Very incredible app. Complementary for my therapy. I’ve learned to identify anger, sadness and fear, but this app helps me to get more diversified in my emotional language and understanding. Thank you so much and absolutely incredible that it’s free and such a good quality!
Emotional neglect as child
This app is so needed for all those that they don’t know what to feel. As young adult I didn’t know there is more than 3: sad, happy, ok. It is very helpful with reminders to stop a few seconds a day and reflect what’s happening in our mind. I recommend this app on every social media I got and to every person that ask about what helped me during therapy and overall in my life. 10/10
love this app
i love how this app makes progress before our eyes. when i started using it i’ve had some complains but i never even said anything and they changed it exactly like i wanted to. love this app but it’s a shame that not all my friends have ios so i can’t share feelings with all of them. beside that i have no other complaints
The best app
This is the best app I’ve ever used - simple, beautiful, with practical psychoeducational content. Fantastic job dear Creators!
No option to add location manually, requires location.
App asks for location tracking just to track weather. There should be an option to add location manually, without having to give out my location.
I’ll be happy to rate your app better once the feature is implemented.
Life changing
This app is literally life changing for me. I have BPD and this app helps me A LOT identifying triggers, also processing them and dealing my mood swings. Also coping strategies, which app offers are very helpful. The app is very clear, design is nice. Highly recommended
Świetna! Bądź szczery
Aplikacja bardzo dobrze pokazuje i opisuje nasze zachowania. Pokazuje również jak ciężko jest nazwać nam i opisać swoje emocje. Dlatego bardzo ważne aby odpowiadać szczerze a nie na zasadzie „tak mi pasuje” bez tego nie pójdziemy dalej
