About

Kimochi is an emotional journaling application available on iOS that offers a visual and accessible approach to emotional introspection, based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC) principles.

Unlike traditional mood trackers that transform emotions into complex statistics, Kimochi uses illustrated cards depicting humans in concrete situations to help users identify what they're feeling and discover the fundamental needs behind those emotions.

The app offers two pathways:
- Inner Weather: quickly note your emotional state in seconds
- Guided Exploration: identify emotions, discover underlying needs (respect, rest, belonging, etc.), and receive concrete suggestions to address them

Privacy is at the core of Kimochi's philosophy. User journals are encrypted and stored only on their device and personal iCloud. No personal data is sold to advertisers.

Free and ad-free, Kimochi is available in French and English on the App Store.
