Psygraph is a Personal Data Collector (PDC) and activity timer that collects data from device sensors and allows for categorization and analysis of the collected data. It provides objective measurements of behavior and location using GPS or cell network sources.

Tools included

The Psygraph app offers a comprehensive set of four tools designed to quantify your mindfulness and provide you with the means to monitor your behavior:

A stopwatch that accurately tracks your meditation sessions.
A counter that enables you to measure your awareness and mindfulness of breath.
A timer that delivers a combination of bells and inspiring quotes at either preset or random intervals.
A versatile note utility that allows you to create and store text and audio notes.
A Note page that allows you to upload text, MP4 audio clips, and transcribed speech (if your device supports it).
Collection of GPS, accelerometer, and sensor data (for scientific analyses).

Each tool features a user-friendly interface, typically consisting of just one or two buttons, and provides a dedicated settings page for customization. Moreover, each tool automatically saves its events and/or sensor data, such as accelerometer or location data, for subsequent analysis and visualization.

Psygraph is completely free of charge, devoid of any advertisements, and guarantees the utmost privacy by refraining from collecting any of your personal data. Its development has been solely focused on delivering benefits to all individuals.
