Why gratitude helps

Writing down good moments is one of the most studied habits in positive psychology. The effects are modest, but they add up.

Hey, I'm Egor

I built Cloudy because my phone had become a source of noise, not reflection. Most apps are made to keep you scrolling. Cloudy is made to help you stop for a minute.

Writing one thing a day changed how I see my days. I built Cloudy so it could do the same for you. If it helps even a little, I would love to hear your story.

Questions
answered.

Is Cloudy free?

Yes. Writing, streaks, reminders, widgets, the security lock and every companion you earn are free. There are no ads.

Is Cloudy a gratitude journal or a regular diary?

Both. Cloudy is built around writing one good thing a day, but you can write as much as you like about anything.

Is my journal private?

Entries are encrypted before they are stored, and you can lock the app with your fingerprint or face. With the lock on, memory text is also hidden in home screen widgets.

Can Cloudy help with stress or anxiety?

Many people use daily gratitude writing to slow down and notice good moments. Cloudy is a journal, not a medical or therapy app. If you are struggling, please talk to a professional.

Do I need an account?

No. You can start as a guest and add a Google or email account later to keep your journal across devices.

Which languages does Cloudy support?

English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese.

Is Cloudy on iPhone?

Not yet. Cloudy is available on Android through Google Play.
