The insights view condenses your entries into trends and correlations. The goal: show you what regularly moves your mood. None of this replaces clinical judgement – but it makes patterns visible.
Time filter
At the top you'll see pills for 7 days, 30 days, 90 days and All. The default is always All, so you see the full picture first, not a coincidentally empty week.
Average mood and trend
The first tile shows the average of your mood over the selected range. Below it you see the trend – the comparison with the previous, same-length period. A small sparkline visualises the progression inside the range.
Top 3 factors
Below that you'll find the three factors with the largest impact on your mood. Each row is tappable and opens a detail tile with:
- how often the factor appeared,
- the difference between days with and without the factor,
- a confidence percentage.
Base factors vs. impact factors
InnerPulse distinguishes two types:
- Base factors – things that are almost always the same (e.g. "enough sleep"). They have low variance and a small visible effect.
- Impact factors – things that happen less often but hit harder when they do (e.g. "therapy" or "conflict").
A factor that appears only ten times but always moves the needle matters more than one that happens daily and changes almost nothing.
Confidence
Confidence measures how statistically solid an effect is – not how often it appears. The app takes sample size, effect size and variance into account. A high confidence value means: this difference is unlikely to be noise.
Sparkline and weekday analysis
The sparkline plots your mood as a line. You can overlay a trend line over 7, 14 or 30 days. The weekday analysis shows which days are systematically better or worse for you.
Regularity
The regularity ring shows on how many days of the selected range you logged. There are no streaks and no badges. The ring is information, not pressure.
Questionnaire history
Further down you'll find how your check-ins have evolved. A severity ribbon shows how your scores shifted over time. The scale is normalised so that different tests can sit side by side.
Worth knowing
- Insights are recalculated every time you open the tab. Nothing is cached.
- At least three entries are needed for meaningful trends.
- Correlation is not causation. The app shows connections – interpretation is up to you.
