Powered by Google Gemini AI, LifeLens automatically detects what you're doing, who you're with, and what you're eating from your photos. Get daily insights at 7:30 PM and monthly analytics reports—no manual tracking required.
What you're seeing
Despite living in an age of unprecedented self-tracking capabilities, most people remain fundamentally disconnected from understanding their own patterns and what truly brings them well-being.
Autobiographical remembering is "an iterative process of combining information stored in the mind and environment"4—meaning our recollections are reconstructions, not recordings. We consistently misremember how we spent our time and what made us happy.
While meta-analyses show journaling can be effective for mental health2, adherence remains challenging. Most people don't have 20-30 minutes daily for detailed written reflection.
Step counts and productivity metrics reduce the richness of human experience to numbers. Research distinguishes between "life logging" (capturing lived experience) and "quantified self" (optimizing metrics)4—most tools excel at the latter while failing at the former.

We're not saying journaling or habit tracking is bad—they work for different goals. LifeLens is built for people who want insights without the overhead.
LifeLens builds on decades of research in psychology, public health, and personal informatics.
Since 1992, photovoice has demonstrated that visual documentation enables people to "identify, represent, and enhance" their experiences through photographs. Research shows it promotes critical dialogue and actionable insights in ways text alone cannot achieve.5
Capturing a photo takes 2 seconds vs. 20+ minutes for traditional journaling. Research on behavior change emphasizes that interventions must minimize participant burden to achieve long-term adherence.1
Unlike reductive metrics, photos preserve context. Studies on lifelogging cameras found they captured nuances that manual diaries missed entirely—social context, environments, and emotional states visible in body language.6
Research on visual journaling interventions shows effectiveness in reducing stress and anxiety. Studies found visual elements facilitate reflection and provide "insights into aspects of experience" that text-based methods miss.7
Experience Sampling Methods (ESM) research demonstrates that real-time data collection provides more accurate insights than retrospective recall, which is subject to systematic bias.3
Systematic reviews confirm that self-tracking interventions, when properly designed with actionable feedback (not just data collection), facilitate positive behavior change and improved wellbeing.8
LifeLens stores all data locally on your device. AI analysis happens through secure API calls, but your photos never leave your phone.
