iPhone App Review: Momentum

Mindbloom has a lot of really interesting motivational apps.  I've been trying them all to some degree or another, and the one that really stands out for me is Momentum.  The idea behind Momentum, is that by recognizing the good moments in your life, they build up momentum to keep you moving forward.



Your hot air balloon flies along.  You click on your fuel gauge to add fuel:


You can show your fuel through taking a picture, adding a picture or writing a note.  For each piece of fuel, you select what kind of fuel it was--a Happy Moment, a Victory Moment, a Reflective Moment, a Kindness Moment, or a Thankful Moment.  You can play back through your momentum as well.  You earn tickets for your progress, and you can upgrade your balloon over time.


My balloon has a red streamer :)

You can also do little challenges for fuel by clicking on a box that flies by.  The challenge may ask you to do a full body stretch, drink a glass of water, or answer a question.



Momentum is a free app.  It's fairly simple and doesn't require much time or effort.  I like it as a reminder to me to celebrate my little victories.  I also like the reminder that I want to recognize the things that make me feel happy, victorious, reflective, kind, or thankful!
