1. Who is Piko Cat?

Meet Piko cat, your friendly cat companion who invites you to share your day. Originally in pink, Piko famously turned purple after feasting on grapes! In our app, Piko cat doesn't just symbolize a playful spirit; it also acts as a guide, helping you to log and understand your feelings. This approach offers a light-hearted and joyful way to navigate your emotions, making the experience of mood journaling more engaging and delightful.

2. What’s the Difference Between Mood Tracking and Mood Journaling?

Mood tracking is a part of mood journaling, focusing on identifying mood patterns and fluctuations. However, it doesn’t typically involve deep reflection on emotions or exploring their root causes. Mood journaling is like your daily emotional exercise, but with Pink Piko, we aim to offer this in a light and fun way.

3. How Is Pink Piko Different from Other Mood-Tracking Apps?

Pink Piko is more than just a mood-tracking app; it offers a detailed and intuitive journaling experience. Instead of logging moods with general feelings like 'great' or 'bad,' we go one step further to encourage users to pinpoint the specific emotions behind these general feelings.

This approach is vital because understanding and being aware of your emotions, as identified in the research on universal emotions by Paul Ekman, is a key step in emotional management. It allows us to change our emotional reactions in response to daily events more effectively. Recognizing these specific emotions leads to better emotional regulation and healthier coping mechanisms.

Our app is designed to make the process of daily emotional journaling intuitive and enjoyable. Beyond providing graphs and charts, Pink Piko turns data into meaningful insights, making it easier for users to understand their emotional patterns. And, what’s more? Piko cat is here to guide and support you on your journey.

11. Any Untold Story Behind Pink Piko?

Pink Piko was born from the personal experiences and insights of its founder, Alexander Vinogradov, who recognised the unique mental health challenges faced by Gen Z, a generation largely affected by the pandemic, unemployment, and climate change. Understanding the critical importance of robust emotional coping mechanisms to handle life's challenges, Alex set out to create a solution.

Experienced firsthand the limitations of existing mood tracking apps, which typically focused on basic tagging without providing deeper emotional insights, Alex was motivated to develop something more meaningful. This led to the birth of Pink Piko – a tool not just for logging moods but also for fostering emotional resilience. It's a solution that goes beyond the surface, offering meaningful ways to understand and manage emotions.
