Tour

A quiet place for the games you actually play.

MioLog is built around everyday play: pick a backlog game, scan your shelf, keep session notes, and revisit the little wins that made the year yours.

What it helps with

Keep your games, memories, and next adventures in one place.

Manage your games

Keep your backlog in order, track finished journeys, pause anything mid-adventure, and plan what comes next.

Log while playing

Write small notes as you go, revisit favourite moments, and keep the little details that made a playthrough yours.

Rate and review

Give each game your own rating and write a personal review. When supported, Mio can draft from your play logs with a small model that runs in your browser.

Track your play time

Log each session straight from the Overview — tap the clock, add the hours, done. Sessions stack into a running total so you always know what a game asked of you.

Cover art and visual shelf

Paste a cover URL to turn your library into a gallery. Tag games as physical or digital and filter each shelf separately.

Four themes, pick yours

Journal, Mio, Polar, and Preem Neon give the app distinct moods. Switch anytime in settings, no restart needed.

Local play-next recommendations

Backlog picks are scored from your own local data: priority, tags, play-time estimates, taste history, and recency. No cloud recommendation engine needed.

Trophies without pressure

Unlock small milestones for logs, reviews, finishes, and shelf curation. They celebrate the journal you already keep.

Year in Review

Generate a shareable 1080×1920 Wrapped card for any year — cover art grid, total play time, average rating, and top platform. One tap, ready to share anytime.

Your data, your device

Everything lives locally. Export your full library and logs anytime, import them on another install — no account, no cloud, no lock-in.
