Most mood apps tell you what your data means. Few show their work. MoodSync's Insights tab does both.
The cards
In the Stats → Insights tab (Pro), MoodSync surfaces a small set of pattern cards from your own data:
- 2-week trend — is your mood moving up or down across the last fortnight?
- Best day / hardest day — which weekday averages best and worst for you
- Sleep patterns — your weekday vs weekend hours, side by side
- Medication impact — average mood on days you logged meds taken vs days you didn't
- Prodrome warning — flags when low sleep starts coinciding with rising elevation
What's behind each card
Each card carries a research citation you can tap to open the paper on PubMed. The cards lean on:
- Harvey 2008 — sleep–circadian coupling in bipolar disorder2008 for the sleep-pattern card
- Colom et al. 2003 — group psychoeducation and bipolar prophylaxis2003 for the medication-impact card
- Wehr et al. 1987 — sleep reduction as a final common pathway to mania1987 for the prodrome warning
