01 · The brief

Most relationship apps want a feed, an account, and your attention. The actual need is smaller and more intimate. Letting one person know how the other is, without a conversation, across any distance.

MyMood is a signal, not a network. A tap travels end-to-end encrypted through CloudKit and appears on the partner’s Dynamic Island, lock screen, and home widget. There are no accounts, no servers of mine, and no feed. The pairing is a QR code you exchange in person.
