Year in Color

Our Mission

We built Year in Color with a simple belief: understanding how you feel shouldn't be complicated. By making mood tracking as easy as clicking a dot and picking a color, we help people build a daily habit of self-reflection that leads to real emotional insight.

Whether you're looking to spot patterns in your mood, build a journaling streak, or simply have a quiet moment of reflection each day, Year in Color gives you the tools to do it — for free, with no account required.

What We Offer

Year in Color is a web-based mood journal that works on any device. Each day, you log your mood and optionally add a note about your day. Over time, your year fills up with color, giving you a visual overview of your emotional journey. Key features include:

• Customizable moods with colors, effects, and shapes you can personalize
• An insights dashboard that tracks streaks, mood breakdowns, and patterns
• Offline support so you can journal anywhere, even without internet
• Optional cloud sync to back up your data across devices
• Data export so your journal entries are always yours to keep
