Moodfit is an app that aims to help consumers understand and improve their moods, increase resilience, and accomplish goals. It uses cognitive behavioral (CBT) principles such as thought records, mindfulness, meditation, and gratitude journaling to treat fluctuations in mood which may be due to depression, stress, and anxiety. Consumers can create their own goals or choose from defaults such as mood, sleep, gratitude, and nutrition. The home screen shows the percentage of goals that the consumer has achieved along with how many days they have saved their moods consecutively. There are also reminders that offer tips for improving one’s mood, as well as a section that tracks the user’s progress with charts.
