Daily check-in and your Comfort Buddy

The front page of the clinic is called Reception. It's where you do your daily check-in, visit your Comfort Buddy, and find the comfort tools.

🍼For littles

Every day, tap the feeling that fits and tell the clinic how you slept and how much you drank. Your buddy gets a snack each time you check in, and it grows bigger over time!

Do your daily check-in

The check-in is one short flow with three steps.

1. Name a feeling. Tap the feeling that fits today. Every feeling is welcome, and you'll get a kind message back. Tap Skip for now if you'd rather not.
2. Do a quick once-over. Set your mood, energy, hours of sleep, and cups of water. Tap Save my check-in.
3. Tick off self-care. Tick anything kind you did for yourself today: drinking some water, a stretch or wiggle, a little snack, a calm wind-down moment, or telling someone how you feel.

If you checked in yesterday, tap Same as yesterday to copy yesterday's answers in one tap.

Once you're done, the flow folds into a small "all checked in" card. You can come back and update today's answers any time.

Grow your care streak

Each day in a row that you check in grows your care streak. A little plant on the front page grows with it, from a tiny sprout to a full bloom at two weeks. If you miss a day, the streak starts again, but nothing else is lost.

Look after your Comfort Buddy

Your Comfort Buddy is a little friend who lives on the front page. Its name starts as Mochi, and you can change that.

• Feed it by caring for yourself. Your buddy earns growth points when you check in, tick off self-care, finish a comfort session, or have a check-up. Each thing counts once a day.
• Watch it grow. Buddies grow through five stages: Hatchling, Sproutling, Snuggler, Guardian, and Luminary. A little celebration plays when your buddy reaches a new stage.
• It never shrinks. If you miss a day, your buddy just naps until you come back.
• Pet it. Tap your buddy for a happy wiggle.

Customize your buddy

1. Tap customize by your buddy.
2. Give it a name.
3. Pick an animal: Teddy Bear, Bunny, Ducky, Kitty, Puppy, Little Lamb, Foxie, or Panda.
4. Pick a color: Mint, Blush, Butter, Sky, Lilac, or Peach.
5. Save.

Dress your buddy

Tap wardrobe to dress your buddy in items you've earned. Items unlock from care streaks, your Care Stage, check-ups, healed stuffies, and Sick Day recoveries. Locked items show how to earn them.

Four sparkle items are paid extras. The Sparkle halo comes with Pro or Premium. The Bubble aura, Shooting star, and Gem tiara are Premium. Every earned item is free.

Use the quick comfort tools

• Breathe. A breathing pacer with your buddy, using a longer breath out to help you settle.
• Soothe. A fidget kit with bubble wrap to pop, a soft pad to stroke, and slowly shifting calm colors.

Take a guided comfort session

Comfort sessions are short, step-by-step walks for harder moments. They're scripted in advance, and nothing is generated while you're in one.

Session	When it helps
Overwhelm SOS	When everything is too much, too loud, too fast
Drop Care	A soft landing when the floaty feelings fade
Worry Unwinder	Untangling a spinning mind
Bedtime Dread	When bedtime feels scary or lonely
Little Space Landing	Easing into soft, small, safe feelings

1. Pick a session on the front page.
2. Say how you feel before you start, or skip that.
3. Follow the steps. They can include slow breathing, a 5-4-3-2-1 grounding list, kind words to read, and your buddy cheering you on.
4. At the end, say how you feel now.
5. If you'd like, tap Tell your caregiver? to let your linked caregiver know you did a session.

Read your weather report and insight

• Weather report. A playful forecast made from the feelings you've named lately, like "mostly sunny with a chance of wiggles." It's never a diagnosis.
• Insight card. A short, kind reflection on your recent check-ins. Free members get a standard reflection. Pro and Premium members get a personalized one written by a computer model, which only sees averages and feeling names, never your notes.

See your trends

The trends panel shows your average mood, energy, sleep, and water over a time window.

• Free: the last 7 days.
• Pro: 7 or 14 days.
• Premium: 7, 14, 30, or 90 days, or all time.

Make a self-care plan

A self-care plan is a named checklist of comfort steps, like "Rough day kit" or "Bedtime wind-down."

1. Find the self-care plans card on the front page.
2. Name a plan and add comfort steps.
3. Tick steps off as you go.

Free members keep one plan. Pro and Premium members can save as many as they like and switch between them. Plans are saved on the device you made them on.

Set a reminder time

Use the reminder-time box on the front page to save the time of day you'd like to be reminded to check in. Right now this saves your preference only. It doesn't send a reminder by itself.
