A few taps, a few words if you want them, then you’re done. A longer evening is there when you want it, and it never makes you write.

  • No subscription. Search and export are free.
  • No account, no ads, no tracking, no third-party code.
  • Entries stay on the phone, with iCloud sync if you want it.
  • No streaks, no mood charts, no counting, no AI reading your entries.
