Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm excited (and a little nervous!) to share Emotly, my personal happiness tracker, with you all today! This journey started back in 2024. Like many, I was using mood trackers to monitor my emotional well-being. The year began incredibly well, but then a prolonged illness hit, and the following months were tough. This swing made me question everything – was happiness just fleeting? As a professional poker player, I'm used to meticulously tracking wins and losses. Even during downswings, I can see my overall progress and know if I'm "up" long-term. I desperately wanted the same perspective on my happiness. Was I "net positive" for the year despite the rough patch? I dove into existing apps (downloading over 30!), but they only gave me snapshots – happy here, sad there. None could show me the bigger picture or answer my core question. It struck me as odd: we track steps, calories, sleep... but often lack a nuanced way to track the most crucial metric – our overall emotional well-being. I started building my own system in Excel/Notion, assigning numerical values (-100 to 100) to my emotional states and linking them to activities. The insight was immediate and profound. Thinking in points, not just vague emojis, made me far more aware. I could see patterns, understand triggers, and even felt a bit like Cypher from The Matrix, seeing the "code" behind my own emotions and experiences. It wasn't just tracking; it was deep self-awareness. That's why I built Emotly. It's designed to go beyond simple mood logging: ✅ Precise Emotion Rating: Use the -100 to 100 scale for nuanced tracking, capturing the richness of your feelings quickly. 📊 Powerful Analytics: Visualize your emotional trends with graphs and charts. Discover patterns, identify triggers, and see the bigger picture. 🔍 Understand Your Best/Worst: This is key! Emotly helps you compare your best and worst days, months, or even years, so you can truly understand what drives your happiness and well-being (like seeing if you're "up" long-term!). 📔 Comprehensive Journal: Add activities, notes, locations, and photos for rich context. Includes a dedicated Gratitude Journal feature. 🔒 Privacy First: Your data is stored securely on your device and accessible only by you. Optional encrypted backups to Google Drive/iCloud keep it safe. Emotly aims to provide the deep emotional insights I couldn't find elsewhere, moving beyond simple tracking towards genuine self-understanding and personal growth. It takes just a few extra seconds compared to tapping an emoji, but the gain in self-awareness is immense. I truly believe understanding our emotional landscape is key to a better life, and I hope Emotly can be a valuable tool for others on that journey. I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and questions! Thanks for checking out Emotly! 🙏 Cheers!

Curious about how does Emotly determine what triggers certain emotional patterns? Can it offer personalized suggestions?

@evakk You can see your patterns on the Insight tab, and by applying advanced filters, you can identify what triggers your best and worst days. For example, I found out that my top 3 days last year were simply days when I was at home with my family.

It doesn't offer personalized suggestions yet. However, what I did was export all my entries to a CSV file and upload it to ChatGPT, which gave me many more insights about myself.

So happy to see you launching Emotly on Product Hunt 🙌

I still remember when it all started with Notion spreadsheets and late-night thoughts about whether it's even possible to track "net happiness" over a year. Amazing to see how it’s grown into a full-fledged app.

The idea of approaching emotions the same way we approach finances or training stats — with respect, attention, and numbers — really hits home. It’s not about control, but about understanding. And your poker background fits into this perfectly.

I’m sure a lot of people are craving exactly this kind of tool right now — not just a smiley-a-day mood tracker, but something that actually helps you make sense of what’s going on underneath.

Really proud of you for making it happen 💪

Oh, a few years ago, I wanted to build a similar app. My attempt failed while I was drafting the idea, but it's nice to see it in action, implemented by someone else. So, I'm naturally in love with the idea, but I like your solution - it looks nice. Good luck with your launch!
