New Features for the New Year
Monday, January 19, 2026

I’ve made a lot of changes to Mood Loops over the past month.

New Features

  • You can now sign in with your Google account.
  • Mood Loops now has a pay-what-you-like subscription system.
  • You can get browser notifications if your browser supports them.
  • There’s a new dark theme, which I use.

Design Changes

  • Your loops now show inactive moods.
  • Optimized the whole site for mobile use.
  • Removed extraneous loop templates and cleaned up the others.
  • Replaced collapsable menu with permanent navbar.
  • Rewrote the homepage and Why? pages to focus on Mood Loops’s strengths.

Bug Fixes

  • I fixed a bunch of little bugs, but nothing huge.

What’s Next?

This is a good step towards a nice public launch for Mood Loops. There’s still a lot to work on:

  • Sometimes the site takes a long time to load
  • Confirm that email features work as intended
  • Streamline documentation, add images.
