Patrika

SwiftUI life workspace for rich journaling, habits, health tracking, and on-device intelligence.

  • SwiftUI
  • SwiftData
  • Core ML
  • Screen Time
  • Lottie

Patrika is a SwiftUI, SwiftData-based life workspace, not just a journal, but a calm daily operating system for reflection, habits, health, and focus.

Journal

  • Rich content entries with inline text, photos, GIFs, Lottie animations, and stickers
  • Text styling: bold, italic, headings, quotes, bullet and numbered lists
  • Voice journaling with multilingual speech transcription and on-device recognition where available
  • Sentiment analysis, keyword extraction, and semantic search over entries
  • A Lottie-based companion that reflects your emotional state

Day workspace

Beyond journaling, Patrika bundles adjacent tools into a single day view:

  • Habits: daily tracking with heat maps and pattern insights
  • Todos: lightweight task management tied to the calendar
  • Expenses: budget tracking with monthly rollups
  • Focus: timer sessions for deep work
  • Health: medication logs, diet entries, water tracking, exercise plans
  • Reset zone: meditation, walks, reflection, and talk-it-out interventions
  • Trips: itinerary planning with AI-assisted suggestions
  • Brain rot: Screen Time integration showing app usage breakdowns

On-device intelligence

Most analysis runs locally: emotion detection, semantic search, weekly insights, habit patterns, expense insights, handwriting recognition from canvas drawings, and foundation-model reflection.

Why I built it

I wanted one app that holds the messy parts of a day (what I wrote, what I ate, whether I moved, how much time I spent on my phone) without sending all of it to a cloud service.
