What this is and how to use it

Murro is for you if you live with bipolar disorder or BPD. It is built around those two — around episodes, around medication, around the way memory fails exactly when you need it most. You don’t need to be good at anything. Just come as you are. If you have no diagnosis and your mood is unsteady, you are welcome too. Just know it was built for those two.

When your mood is unsteady, it’s easy to lose your footing. This app is a simple daily anchor. A couple of minutes a day: note how you slept, how you ate, how you feel. Over time those small dots reveal patterns — for you and for your doctor.

The main thing: this is not a doctor and not a replacement for treatment. It sits alongside your psychiatrist or psychotherapist, never instead of them.

How to use it — part by part

Tracker (home)

The heart of the app. Here you note sleep, mood, food, small wins, and a score for how the day went. You don’t have to fill in everything. Even one dot is already good.

Food

Mark what you’ve eaten today — breakfast, lunch, dinner, a snack — so eating doesn’t slip your mind. Appetite often goes off in hard periods. You can add a few words: what you ate, why little or much.

Alcohol

Just how much there was that day — or that there wasn’t any. There is no dry-day counter here and there won’t be: a number that resets to zero after a hard evening announces failure at exactly the moment you have least to spare. Days recorded stay recorded, nothing counts up, so nothing can reset. The point is the other thing: seeing how alcohol lands on your sleep and on the next day — and in bipolar disorder that is one of the most visible levers there is.

More detail

If you want more detail — here you can note your level of highs and lows separately, and the timing of your daily routines. The steadier your daily rhythm, the steadier your state. It’s optional; open it when you have the energy.

Talk (the companion)

This is an AI bot, not a person and not a therapist. You can vent to it, ask for a calming technique, or just sort out what’s going on. It knows your recent entries, so it understands context. It never messages first and never pressures you.

Diary card (DBT)

When it’s really stormy — here you can note emotions and urges (including the urge to harm yourself). If the levels are high, the app offers help right away.

Techniques

Short exercises drawn from DBT and CBT, for hard moments — to ride out an acute wave instead of fighting it blind.

Safety plan

Your personal steps and contacts for a crisis. It’s best filled in ahead of time, in a calm moment — so in a hard one you don’t have to think, just open it.

Help, right now

The Help button is on every screen of the app. One tap opens real hotline numbers for your country and a few steps for right now. Nothing needs filling in first, and nothing is sent anywhere. If you are reading this without an account, the help button is on this page too.

Early signs

Your own early signs that things are starting to slide — so you can catch it before it takes over.

Coming back after a gap

If you have been away for a few days or a few weeks, the app will not ask you to fill in what you missed and it counts nothing. The missed days stay missed. Instead it shows you what you once wrote about your own early signs — both sides, the lift and the slide, because without recent entries the app has no business deciding which one this is. The card appears once per absence and can be dismissed.

If something breaks

Settings has a “Found a bug?” box — write there, even briefly. The app attaches only technical details: which screen, your window size, language, browser, and whether you were online. Your entries, conversations, medications and diary card are never attached. If email suits you better, the address is right there.

Reminders

The app can remind you about your medication at times you choose, and about a therapy day. The notification never names the medication, so nothing revealing shows on your lock screen to whoever is nearby. Turn it on in Settings, separately on each device: if you turn them on on your laptop, they won't arrive on your phone.

Gentle nudges

Separately from medication, you can turn on quiet evening messages: an invitation to log the day, a technique for today, or simply "skipping a day is fine". At most one a day. They never bring up missed days and never count streaks, because gaps happen exactly when things are already hard.

Missing a day is fine. This isn’t a test or a grade of you. Do as much as you can today.
