How Are You Feeling Today?
Feelings matter as much as the rest of your health. Some apps ask kids one or two simple questions a day. Just tap the face that matches how you feel.
AI watches the pattern over a week or a month. If feelings are slipping or staying low, the app can suggest talking to a grownup or a counselor.
What the app might suggest
- A breathing exercise on a hard day
- A reminder to go outside
- A note to share how you feel with a grownup
- Help finding a counselor
The big idea: feelings check-ins help spot rough patches early — but real people are still the best help.
