Desktop Viewer

A desktop app that opens an export from your iPhone and lays it out for a big screen. Months — even a full year — of mood, energy, activity, habits, and trackers on one screen.

Free. Open source (MIT). Read-only — it never writes to your data and never phones home. Mac and Windows.

MAC (.DMG) WINDOWS (.EXE) SOURCE ON GITHUB

v1.1.2 — macOS 11+ (signed & notarized) · Windows 10+. The Windows installer isn’t code-signed yet, so SmartScreen warns on first launch: More info → Run anyway.

No TriLog data yet? Download a sample journal (~2 MB, two years of generated data) and open that instead.

01Setup

  1. Install the viewer.
  2. In TriLog: App Menu → Settings → Backup & Restore → Database + Photos Bundle. AirDrop the zip to your computer and unzip it — you get a journal.db plus an images/ folder.
  3. In the viewer, click Open Database… and point it at journal.db.
  4. Browse. Tabs along the top: Mood Chart, Metrics, Habits, Trackers, Charts, Life Calendar.

02The Tabs

Mood Chart. The iPhone’s chart, redrawn for the wider screen. Optional cycle, weather, and moon-phase strips. Hover any element for time, type, and notes.

Mood Chart tab — punch-card view with mood, energy, activity dots and notes

Metrics. Six weeks of every per-day metric — mood, energy, wellness, Thrive, weather, sleep, Apple Health — one wide grid. Row visibility mirrors your iPhone settings.

Metrics tab — per-day grid showing Thrive, Mood, Energy, Wellness, sleep, weather, activities
FIG.02 / METRICS — SIX WEEKS

Habits. Each habit gets a 42-day row. Consistency and gaps at a glance.

Habits tab — 42-day grid with green checkmarks for completed days
FIG.03 / HABITS — 42 DAYS

Trackers. Every tracker rendered the same as on the iPhone — numeric chips, traffic-light squares, toggles — so everything cross-references.

Trackers tab — sums, traffic-light squares, and toggle squares
FIG.04 / TRACKERS

Charts. Long-range trends: the per-day mood mix stacked under the energy line, from 12 weeks up to a full year.

Charts tab at 12 weeks showing mood-mix stacked bars with the energy line overlay

Life Calendar. Optional 100-year × 52-week grid, filled in week by week.

03Privacy

Read-only by design — the viewer cannot edit your TriLog data; your iPhone stays the source of truth. It works entirely offline and stores nothing besides a few local preferences on your machine. The source is on GitHub under the MIT license — inspect it, fork it, build it yourself.
