I built Zen Vault: A beautiful, local-first mood journal & habit tracker with a highly feature-complete free tier. Looking for feedback!

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share a project I've been working hard on called Zen Vault. It’s a daily mood journal and habit tracker built using Flutter.

The core philosophy behind it is keeping your private thoughts private. Your journal entries and data stay completely local on your device. (Note: The app is local-first, though it does use anonymous Firebase analytics purely to help me track performance and squash bugs).

You can check it out on the Play Store here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rcpc.zen_vault

A few things I focused on:

• A Complete Free Tier: I explicitly designed the free version to be incredibly robust. I want people to genuinely love and use the app without ever feeling forced to buy a premium subscription just to get basic utility.

• Mindful Design: I put a lot of love into making the UI clean, distraction-free, and beautiful.

• Grounding Features: It includes calming mini-games (like digital bubble popping and constellation drawing) to help you destress before you log your day.

I am really proud of how the design and flow turned out, but as the developer, I am definitely biased! I would absolutely love to hear your honest thoughts, feature ideas, or UI feedback.

Let me know what you think!
