hiMoment - Your digital happiness guru

@alina_karnaukh Glad you like it. It's precicely the "have something to be happy about each day" that makes a tremendous difference. Might take you a bit of time on your first days, but within a couple of days, I swear your number one question won't be "hm, what was good today?" but "which of all these great things was the best today?"

@stevedaniel cheers! For now, it's the fastest solution to authenticate real people 🙋 You don't have to create a new account, come up with a password, remember it, go through account confirmation emails, you know how tedious the process can be... For the future, we definitely need to add options to log in using various services—not everyone has/wants to use a Facebook account these days 🗓

@chrisbuttenham it's a great mental workout. Once you have a couple of moments in, you can keep coming back to it, as a daily ritual or when in need of an intensive dose of it. The method behind it has been shown to prevent anxiety and depression.

@georg_kuttner Happiness should always be for free, but we'll add premium services that will help you develop any mindset, stay motivated, and reach your goals. We also get frequent visits from professionals who would like to use this as a digital addon to their coachings and therapies. While your comment is funny, depression isn't and we feel it's important to mention that hiMoment does not cure depression or work for depressed people. It takes a completely different set of tool to heal depression than to make people happier.

@andreasz_com cheers! It's not only videos but any kind of multimedia, we need to keep in mind that there are so many different ways people find things that make them happy 🎧 🖼 🏄 We've got big plans with video (imagine getting an AI-made summary video of your best moments in a collection), stay tuned!

@adam_shapiro hi, thank you yeah, we are reworking that particular part. While you may not come up with 4 moments that easily, you can import 4 moments off your phone gallery. Work might not be the best topic to start, thanks for pointing that out.

@christoph_loewenherz Another thing is the Flow CX. I don't understand how you select which moment you like better. If I tap a moment it just gets larger. With some random swiping it seems to choose one but there's no indication which moment you chose or how to correct it if you chose the wrong. Really confusing.

@adam_shapiro thanks for reporting that adam. hiMo tells you to swipe the better one OVER the other one. I am sure it will help if we repeat this message. great feedback!

@cpspencer cheers! And on top of that, it doesn't have to be necessarily a photo 📝 There's plenty of happy moments where we don't have a photo and these deserve to be remembered as well!

@equinux thank you! I agree that teens would especially benefit from it. However, it will be super difficult to convince them to post their moments on hiMoment rather than on instant gratification social media sites. But it's our big goal, so we're putting as much focus on being entertaining as we put on being scientifically sound!

@thomas_knappitsch It's a common problem at the beginning that people feel their life isn't special enough. But most likely, they are just not good at noticing the small moments. So in the beginning, take your time and really come up with that best moment consistently. It could be the smallest thing. If you do this consistently for a couple of days, I promise it will be easier as your brain is adjusting to the task. That's when you enter an upward spiral. your mood will improve, you'll see more good things, other people will notice, they'll be in a better mood around you, etc etc. I was a notorious pessimist when I developed the hiMoment method, so my first hiMoment took me 20 minutes to come up with.

@automateiq There are crucial differences to a journal, most notably our collections (best of lists which are created automatically based on hashtags you set and based on time periods) and FLOW - a machine-learning based way of browsing through your moments that is aimed at providing you a microdose of happiness within 5 minutes. But great if you are using the method already
