FAQ

What is My Kokoro?

My Kokoro is a gentle planner & journal that helps you build routines, track emotions, and celebrate small wins. It’s designed for individuals and for caregiver + user pairs.

Is it free?

Yes. There are no paywalls and no ads. If you want to support development, there’s an optional in-app tip.

Which platforms are supported?

iOS and Android.

Does it work offline?

Yes. My Kokoro is offline-first; your data is stored locally on your device.

Why two modes?

People use My Kokoro in different ways. User-Only is for solo use with full control over goals and journaling. Caregiver + User lets a caregiver help set up and support without taking over the user’s day. Caregivers can review progress and help with goal setup; users focus on completing today’s goals and logging mood/journals.

What is KP?

KP (Kokoro Points) is a simple, flexible way to mark progress. It’s not money or an in-app currency. You (and your caregiver, if applicable) decide what earns KP, such as completing goals or reaching milestones. Use KP to celebrate wins or unlock real-life rewards you choose together.

Can goals be edited?

Yes, but the title and description cannot be changed once created. This keeps your history consistent and prevents past entries from being renamed.

What can caregivers see or change?

In Caregiver + User mode, caregivers can help create and organize goals and can view reports (missed, skipped, completed). Goal titles / descriptions are locked after creation to keep history accurate. Users record mood and journals; caregivers can’t change past user entries, nor see the users journal entries.

How is my data protected?

My Kokoro stores data locally and uses a PIN to protect access. We don’t run ads or hidden trackers. You’re in control of your information on your device.

Do you collect personal data or require an account?

No account is required. We don’t collect your journals or goals on a server. App stores may provide basic, anonymous diagnostics we use to improve stability.

Can I back up or export my data?

Data lives on your device today. A simple export option is planned for an upcoming release so you can save or move your information if you switch devices.

Does it have Dark Mode and accessibility features?

Yes, Dark Mode is supported. Typography, spacing, and color choices are designed to be gentle and readable. We’ll continue improving accessibility (larger text support, screen reader polish) over time.

What other features are coming?

Check the roadmap for what’s planned and what’s in progress.

Why did you build this? What’s the story?

My Kokoro was created to make daily care and self-care feel lighter, celebrating small wins and improving communication between loved ones. It’s built with empathy first.
