Recording & Entries
Tap the record button on your dashboard, press once to start and once to stop. After recording, you can add a title, select your mood, write notes, and attach an optional photo before saving.
Yes. Tap any entry to edit the title, notes, mood, or photo. Your original audio recording is always preserved.
You can attach a photo when saving an entry or later from the entry detail screen. Choose from your camera or photo library.
Tap the star icon on any entry to mark it as a favorite. Favorited entries appear in a dedicated tab on your dashboard and are protected from Auto-Wipe.
Tap the speed button during playback to cycle through 1x, 1.5x, and 2x speed.
Daily Check-ins
Two daily guided prompts on your dashboard. Morning Intention helps you set a focus for your day. Evening Reflection helps you look back and process. Both create voice entries tied to daily prompts and are free for all users.
Go to Settings and enable Morning Intention and Evening Reflection reminders. You can set custom times for each.
Mood & Streaks
Aire It Out offers 10 moods: Calm, Happy, Sad, Anxious, Reflective, Grateful, Tired, Stressed, Hopeful, and Neutral. Each has its own color.
Open the entry, tap the mood pill, and pick from the 10 available moods.
Your streak counts consecutive days with at least one entry. Missing a day resets your streak to 0.

No. Aire It Out is a personal journaling tool. AI features are for reflection and awareness only and are not a substitute for professional mental health advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are in crisis, please see the crisis resources below.
Time Capsules
Seal a message to your future self. Free users can choose 3, 6, or 12 month unlock dates. Pro users can set any custom date up to 5 years in the future. Content stays hidden while sealed.
You receive a push notification and a badge appears on the Capsules tab. You can save the entry as a regular entry, reseal it for later, or delete it.
Yes. Sealed Time Capsules and favorited entries are always protected from Auto-Wipe.
Night Sky
Night Sky is a constellation view of your monthly entries. Each entry becomes a star — sized by recording duration and colored by mood. Stars are connected by constellation lines with nebula clouds and shooting stars in the background. Tap any star to view the entry. Browse months with the arrow buttons.
A poetic AI summary of your emotional month. Generated once per month and cached so you can revisit it anytime.
A monthly closing voice memo you can record at the end of each month. Final Thoughts are stored on your device only — they are not synced to the server, not transcribed, and not sent to AI.
