Pulse: Your Micro-Journal

Your pulse, your day, your journal. Pulse is intentionally kept lean: no subscription, no cluttered interface — just you, a moment, and an honest read on how you're actually doing. Free and open source. HOW IT WORKS • Capture moments: a short thought, a rating from −2 (bad) to +2 (good), optional tags and location. Done in seconds. • Reflect on your day: one sentence of forecast in the morning, the summary in the evening — with your own metrics like sleep, deep work, exercise, or family time. Stoic reflection questions get you started. • Discover patterns: daily, weekly, and monthly views show you what lifts you up — and what doesn't. Filter by a single tag to look at one area of your life on its own. Good days have reasons. • AI coach: on request, Apple Intelligence analyzes your entries and surfaces insights about your patterns — running entirely on your device, no cloud. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Everything lives on your iPhone or iPad and in your private iCloud. Lock Pulse with Face ID, Touch ID or your device passcode if you like. No tracking, no ads, no accounts. The full source code is public on GitHub. Export to JSON anytime. WHO IS PULSE FOR? For everyone who has failed at classic journaling: no long entries, no pressure, no streak guilt. A micro-journal that fits your life — not the other way around. Questions or ideas? Pulse is actively developed — your feedback shapes the roadmap.
