Encrypted before it is saved
Entries, photos, triggers and reflections are sealed on your device with libsodium. Your encryption key never leaves your hands.
Private beta · End-to-end encrypted
So Far So Good — a private, encrypted journal for your mental health
A quiet place to log how you feel, catch your triggers and find a little calm. Your entries are encrypted on your device before they are saved. Optional sync only ever carries ciphertext.
A key is required while the beta gate is on. Free during the beta.
- End-to-end encrypted
- Offline-first PWA
- No ads, no cross-site tracking
Small tools for hard days
Built by a psychologist for everyday self-reflection: quick enough to use in the moment, deep enough to notice change over time.
Works without a connection
Install it as a PWA and write whenever you need to. The journal opens offline, so a bad signal is never a reason to skip a check-in.
Log feelings in seconds
Pick from an emotion wheel, add intensity, a photo or a location. The low-friction composer keeps the moment from slipping away.
Guided calm-down tools
Breathing exercises, 5-4-3-2-1 grounding, reality anchoring, STOP and self-compassion practices with a shared timer.
Colouring, soundscapes and music
Unwind with a colouring studio, ambient soundscapes, or attach a 30-second music preview to an entry.
Optional encrypted sync
Pair your phone and computer with a one-time code. Only ciphertext is uploaded, and only you can decrypt it.
How it works
1
Write it down
Capture a mood, a thought, a photo or a drawing. Everything is encrypted at rest on the device.
2
Find your footing
Open a breathing or grounding exercise when things feel loud. No streak guilt, no pressure to perform.
3
Notice the pattern
Weekly summaries, trigger stats and emotion trends help you see what is changing over time.
Privacy by design
Your words stay yours
A journal only works if you feel safe writing in it. So Far So Good is built so that the service cannot read your entries, even if you use sync.
- Encryption happens on your device before data is stored.
- Sync uploads ciphertext only; the key never leaves your devices.
- Device pairing shares the key with a sealed one-time code.
- No ad networks, no selling data, no reading your journal to train models.

About the author
Built by a psychologist
So Far So Good was created by Andrej Kos, a psychologist who works on a therapeutic ward and in emergency intake at the Psychiatric Hospital Kosmonosy. The app grew out of everyday experience with people who needed a simple, private way to keep track of how they were doing between sessions.
It is an independent project, not a clinical service. Feedback, corrections and ideas are genuinely welcome at sofarsogoodteam@gmail.com or on Instagram.
Frequently asked questions
Is my journal really private?+
Yes. Entries are encrypted on your device with libsodium before they are written to local storage. If you turn on sync, the server only receives ciphertext, and the encryption key stays on your devices.
Does it work offline?+
Yes. So Far So Good is an installable Progressive Web App. Once loaded, the journal opens and saves without a connection; sync catches up when you are back online.
Is it free?+
The app is free during the private beta, with no ads and no selling of personal data. Optional support links help cover hosting costs.
Is this a replacement for therapy?+
No. So Far So Good is a self-reflection tool, not a crisis service or a medical device. If you are in danger, contact local emergency services or a crisis line.
How do I get access?+
The app is in a small private beta while it is tested. Email us and we will send you an access key. You can then open the journal on any modern phone, tablet or computer.
Which devices are supported?+
Any modern browser on Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS or Linux. You can add it to your home screen or install it from the browser menu.
