About Calluna: Gratitude Journal
Three good things a day. That's the whole idea. Calluna is a journal for small joys — the coffee in the sun, the message you didn't expect, the bread still warm from the bakery. You write them down, and a plant grows. WHAT YOU DO EACH DAY • One tap for your mood, on five gentle levels. Even a hard day makes the plant grow. • One to three good things, if you feel like it. Never required. • A hint when you're stuck ("Did you eat something good today?"), a reason if you want to say why, a category, the people who were there. • One photo, from your library or taken on the spot. WHAT GROWS One plant a month. Your mood sets how fast it grows, and each good thing opens a flower. Nothing dies, nothing goes backwards. A day you skip is simply a day without growth — no broken streak, no guilt. At the end of the month the plant joins your garden: twelve plants a year, side by side. Your year in joy, without a single chart. WHEN THE DAY IS GREY On a hard day, Calluna offers — never forces — a happy memory drawn from your own journal. It avoids the last few days and favours the brightest ones. You can also ask for one at any time. LOOKING BACK • The happiness bank: everything you've written, to reread or to draw at random. • The calendar: a month of moods at a glance, and more good days than you remembered. • Sunday's bouquet: the week's joys gathered in one place. • "A year ago today", quietly, on the home screen. WHAT CALLUNA WILL NEVER ASK There is no field for what went wrong. No mood curve sloping down. No streak you mustn't break. And no account to create — no email address, no password. You open the app and you write. YOUR JOURNAL STAYS ON YOUR PHONE It lives on your device. We don't read it, because we don't have it. If you want a copy, you choose: back it up to your own Google Drive, or export everything — words and photos — into a single .zip file you can open anywhere, with or without Calluna. Nothing is sold, nothing is passed on. Available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.
What’s new
Version 1.8 · Updated September 4, 2026
Decors are here, and sharing has been rebuilt THE DECORS Your plant lives in a decor, and now you can change it. The Moor, The Windowsill, The Balcony, The Greenhouse — each with its own light, its pot and its company. They are bought one at a time, once and for all, and you can mix them to compose your own. SHARING, REBUILT • Share a single good thing, or your whole day • A story format, made for Instagram and WhatsApp • A settings screen with a real preview: what you see is exactly what will be shared • Pick the background: the journal's cream, or one of three skies • Today's photo as the background, inset in the card, or not at all — and it works with any background • The first names of the people you mention appear on the card, if you like • Your choices are remembered from one share to the next THE EVENING REMINDER A screen finally explains what it is for — writing down three good things before bed, even when the day seemed unremarkable — and lets you pick the time right there. ALSO • Naming someone close, or picking a theme, is finally easy to spot • First names now come before themes, as the screen always promised • Sharing is much faster
