Frequently Asked Questions

About Minspirits

What is Minspirits?

Minspirits is a reflective journaling platform that combines private diary writing, mood tracking, goal setting, lessons learned, and optional social sharing in one calm digital space.

It’s designed for people who want to:

  • Understand their emotions
  • Capture their personal journey
  • Reflect slowly
  • Share intentionally (not perform)

Minspirits is not a social network. It’s a reflective space first — community second.

Is Minspirits a private journal or a social platform?

It’s both — and you control the balance.

Minspirits is designed to work as a fully private digital journal, but it also allows optional social sharing if you choose.

You can:

  • Keep everything completely private
  • Share selected diary entries with followers or friends
  • Publish specific entries publicly

Privacy is decided at different levels:

  • Diary entries → You choose visibility per entry
  • Lessons → You decide visibility per lesson
  • Goals → You choose whether goals are private or shared
  • Mood tracking → You decide globally if your mood levels are visible or private

Nothing is shared automatically. You always decide what stays personal and what becomes visible.

How is Minspirits different from other journaling apps?

Minspirits is designed for reflective writing — not content performance.

It focuses on:

  • An optional community where you can share intentionally — not perform publicly. A place to express your feelings, inspire, and be inspired.
  • Reflection, not streak addiction.
  • Emotional depth, not productivity pressure.
  • AI assistance that supports your thinking — not replaces it.

You can write privately, track moods, set yearly goals, record lessons, and if you choose, share parts of your journey with others.

Minspirits is built for long-term growth and emotional clarity — not quick dopamine.

Privacy & Visibility

If my profile is public, can anyone see my diary entries?

No.

Each diary entry has its own visibility setting.

Even if your profile allows public sharing, you can still mark any entry as private. Your default account privacy only controls what sharing options are available to you — not what is automatically published.

What are the different privacy options of your profile?

Minspirits offers three account modes:

Private

  • All entries, moods, goals and lessons can only be private
  • You cannot be followed
  • You cannot receive friend requests
  • You can still follow others
  • Your full name is not publicly visible

Followers & Friends

  • You can share entries with followers/friends
  • You must accept follower requests
  • You can still create fully private entries
  • You control who sees what

Public

  • You can share entries, lessons, goals and mood levels publicly
  • Others can follow you without approval
  • You still control each entry’s visibility individually
  • You can always keep entries private

Privacy is layered — account level and entry level.

Does marking an entry as “Finished” make it public?

No.

“Finished” only means the entry is no longer a draft.

After finishing, you choose:

  • Private
  • Followers/Friends
  • Public (if your selected profile sharing level allows it)

An entry marked as finished but set to private is visible only to you.

Why doesn’t my entry appear on the public wall?

Possible reasons:

  • It’s still marked as draft.
  • It’s finished but not set to “Public”.
  • Your account privacy does not allow public visibility.
  • The wall uses a dynamic ordering system (not strictly chronological).

If you still don’t see it, contact support.

AI & Reflection

What is Spirit AI?

Spirit AI is Minspirits’ reflective assistant.

It helps you:

  • Reframe thoughts
  • Ask deeper questions
  • Notice emotional patterns
  • Clarify goals

It does not replace your voice. It supports reflection — it doesn’t generate your life for you.

Does AI read my private entries?

If Spirit AI interacts with an entry, it does so only when you explicitly use it.

Private entries remain private and are not publicly accessible.

Each time you interact with Spirit AI, it will have temporary access to your entries to gather the information to answer you, but nothing beyond that.

You control when AI is involved and the AI is not trained with your data.

Security & Data

Is Minspirits secure?

Minspirits is built with modern web security standards, encrypted connections (HTTPS), and secure authentication systems.

Your data belongs to you.

Who owns my content?

You do.

Your diary entries, moods, and reflections belong to you. Minspirits does not claim ownership of your personal content.

Can I delete my account and data?

Yes.

You can request account deletion and your personal data will be removed according to our privacy policy.

Writing & Features

Can I track my moods?

Yes.

Minspirits includes mood tracking so you can:

  • Log emotional states
  • See patterns over time
  • Connect moods with life events

You control mood visibility separately from diary entries.

Can I set goals inside Minspirits?

Yes.

You can create SMART goals and track your progress alongside your reflections.

What are “Lessons”?

Lessons are personal insights you want to remember.

They help you:

  • Capture patterns
  • Save realizations
  • Build personal wisdom over time

Can I use Minspirits completely privately?

Yes.

You can use Minspirits as a fully private digital diary without ever sharing anything.

Community features are optional.

Is Minspirits available on mobile?

Yes, apart from the web app, you can install the iOS and Android versions.

Pricing & Subscription

Is Minspirits free?

Yes.

Minspirits offers a free plan that includes private journaling, mood tracking, goal setting, life lessons, and community participation with monthly limits.

You can use Minspirits as a complete reflective journal without paying.

For users who want extended limits and expanded AI features, there is a Supporter plan available. You can see full details on our Pricing page.

What is the difference between Free and Supporter?

The Free plan includes:

  • Private and public diary entries (within monthly limits)
  • Mood tracking
  • Goals and life lessons
  • Multimedia entries (images, audio, video)
  • Community interaction
  • Access to Spirit AI (monthly credit limit)

The Supporter plan increases limits significantly and unlocks:

  • Much higher AI usage (Spirit AI credits)
  • More diaries and entries
  • More multimedia uploads per entry
  • Extended audio duration and transcription
  • More exports
  • More comments and messages
  • Expanded collaboration capabilities

Supporter is designed for people who journal consistently and want fewer limits.

What does “a lot” mean in the Supporter plan?

“A lot” means generous limits designed so you don’t have to think about them in normal use.

Minspirits is built for genuine reflection — not automation or abuse.

If usage patterns change, limits may evolve responsibly.

Why is it called “Supporter”?

Because subscribing directly supports the development of Minspirits.

Minspirits is an independent product focused on slow growth, emotional depth, and thoughtful technology — not ad-driven engagement.

Supporters help keep the platform sustainable and independent.

Is Spirit AI included in the free plan?

Yes.

Both Free and Supporter plans include Spirit AI.

However, Supporter includes significantly more monthly AI credits.

Can I upgrade or cancel anytime?

Yes, you can upgrade or cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings.
