Best Free Mood Trackers (That Work Offline)

Quick Summary

Many mood tracking apps require logins or store your data in the cloud. But sometimes you just want a simple, private way to track how you feel. Here are the best free mood trackers that work offline.

Why Track Your Mood?

Keeping a record of your mood helps you:

  • Notice patterns over time
  • Understand triggers for stress, anxiety, or low mood
  • Recognise positive days and celebrate progress
  • Share helpful insights with your GP or counsellor

For many people, mood tracking is the first step toward feeling more in control.

The Problem With Most Mood Tracking Apps

Most mood apps ask you to create an account, share personal data, and sync everything to the cloud. For those who value privacy, this can feel uncomfortable — especially when dealing with mental health.

2. Paper & Pen Journal

Sometimes the simplest option is best. Writing your mood down daily in a notebook works — and it’s always offline.

3. Phone Notes (No Sync)

If you use your phone’s Notes app, you can switch off cloud sync for that app and keep entries only on your device.

FAQs About Offline Mood Tracking

Is my data stored when I use the Mood Journal on this site?

No. All entries stay in your browser's local storage—nothing is sent to a server.

Do I need to create an account?

No login or signup is required. Just open the tool and start using it.

Can I use it without internet?

Yes. Once the page has loaded once, the tracker will work offline.
