Frequently asked questions

What is ForecastYou?

ForecastYou is a weather app for your moods and habits. As you log more entries, the app has more data for its upcoming forecast of your life. But we can only predict based on the past. You decide what the weather will be.

What is the forecast based on?

We average how frequently you log a habit, activity, or mood and project future completions based on growth or decay, how frequently it's completed based on weekday, and how frequently it's completed overall. And most importantly, we add or subtract from our projections based on our accuracy in the past. If we continue to overshoot, we correct for future weeks, creating a forecast that grows to understand you alongside your own self-discovery.

Is my data private?

Absolutely! ForecastYou is local only storage. No accounts. No servers. No collected data. Your journal never leaves your device! We are working on cloud sync functionality that will be completely opt in.

Help! I deleted ForecastYou, reinstalled it, and all my entries are gone!

Unfortunately, because of local only storage, deleting the app means deleting your own data. Make sure to download your save to your documents before making any big decisions! After reinstalling, you can upload that save and arrive back where you started.

I like typing on a regular keyboard. Is ForecastYou available for desktop?

Not yet! But we are working on a desktop version where users can create entries online and update saves through cloud sync. Coming soon!

I already have another journaling app I use, but I don't want to start all over. Can I import?

ForecastYou allows users to upload pdfs of journal exports and rapidly create entries through the parsed data. We also allow users to create keyword lists, linking certain habits and moods to certain words or phrases, and any instance within the uploaded document is logged as that mood and habit. This way, you can immediately pick up where you left off in your previous journal.
